The Wizard Nebula (NGC7380). One of my favourite targets.
Night darkness is getting shorter now so it was good to shoot a few clear hours last night. 165 minutes x 60 second exposures.

The nebula earns its magical nickname because the complex interaction of gas, dust, and stars creates a silhouette resembling a medieval sorcerer wearing a pointed hat with outstretched arms.

Anti lightleap is like top 100 internet images oat (it would be top 10 but the internet has a LOT of good contenders)

Here’s my attempt for #PostProcess #Silence

Original photo by @rjrock.bsky.social

Trying to convey the silence of an empty street as dawn breaks. Removed all people and vehicles except one tram in Retouch. Applied night filter and sky filter in Lightleap

If you're interested, image 1 is what the output looks like straight out of the Dwarf app after its in-house processing has been run. Image 2 is after I have run my own processing. Note, no new or false colours added, just drawn out from the original data. #astronomy #astrophotography

After I have run this through Snapseed, Lightleap and Photoshop Lite. All free mobile apps.

Snapseed (lots of features there). Lightleap and Photoshop Lite. All free apps. Nothing false added during the processing but drawing out data that's 'hiding'.

My first attempt at using Siril Software (left) for processing compared to 'just' using the in-built Dwarflabs software and phone apps (right).

You can see the difference/benefit.

been using sunbeam as a subject for messing around with traditional mediums recently! i love her
#art #artist #warriors #warriorcats #sunbeam #collage #watercolor

A pencil and watercolor drawing of Sunbeam, Lightleap, Nightheart, and Berryheart from Warriors. Sunbeam’s head is in the front middle of the page, and she is crying, with her ears back and her paws over her head. From left to right, Nightheart, Berryheart, and Lightleap are drawn smaller around her, all in purple and looking away from her. Nightheart looks excited, Lightleap looks mad, and Berryheart’s face is turned away from the viewer. The background is blue.

A painting of Sunbeam from Warriors. She is painted half in orange and half in pink. She is sitting down and hunched over with her shoulders up, and the orange half of her face is sad while the pink half is angry. The background is dark purple with small visible paintbrush strokes all pointing inwards toward her.

A collage with a drawing of Sunbeam from Warriors as the main image, in the bottom right corner. She is on a background of diagonal white and iridescent silver stripes pointed toward her. Radiating outward from behind her are triangular paper scraps in yellow and pink, and they are reminiscent of a sun. In between the stripes in the background, small orange and yellow suns have been drawn in a circle around her. At the three other corners there are little pink, orange, and yellow rainbows.

@sweetsubun.bsky.social

Here’s my hot take. I actually really like Nightheart (he is literally so transgender it’s insane) and don’t really like Lightleap or (especially) Blazefire………. Sue me

My Q was does a screengrab of a threads screen add the icon to the screengrab or change the interface button icon?

And lightleap: take a screengrab of lightleap and it changes the screengrab by….? How?

What? Take a screenshot of an edited picture in Lightleap and it changes the screenshot.

It's back! The Great Orion Nebula (M42) captured before first light during a marathon Dwarf3 imaging session overnight. More to come but here is 40 minutes of exposures before daybreak. #astronomy #astrophotography @stormhour.com @photohour.bsky.social

The Orion Nebula, also known as
Messier 42 or M42, is a massive stellar nursery located in the Milky Way, approximately 1,344 light-years from Earth. It is the closest region of massive star formation to our planet and is one of the brightest nebulae in the night sky. 40 minutes of 30 second exposures using the Dwarf 3 smart scope processed using Snapseed and Lightleap apps.
