The Evening Planets - taken on the same night (12 August 2018) with the same telescope and camera. Venus image was constructed from IR, UV+IR, and UV filters for R, G, and B channels, respectively. Seeing was variable estimated at 4/10 (Venus), 6/10 (Jupiter and Saturn), and 8/10 (Mars) with transparency estimated at 9/10. (TRT-SKA/CDK700/ASI174)

The Bubble Nebula (NGC 7635, Caldwell 11), is an emission nebula in Cassiopeia. The image was taken through narrow band filters with total integration time of approximately 14 hours (SII:H-alpha:OIII = 485:200:220 mins). Hubble color scheme of SHO was used to process the image. CDK700/ProLine16803 (TRT-SRO).
