Pictures of our neighbor planets #Mars and #Venus, as well as #PlanetaryNebula NGC2392 taken with an 8" Newtonian and a ZWO ASI462MM camera. Color images are composites taken separately with corresponding filters. They're not perfect, but I'm pretty happy with the results. #astrophotography #Astrodon #amateurastronomy
Planetary nebula NGC 2392 shown as a greenish disk in front of a sparse star field. Some colorful details are visible in the disk.
Planet Mars with its distinctive red color. Some darker areas are visible on the planet's face, as well as a hint of its polar ice cap.
A monochrome picture of planet Venus, showing its opaque cloud cover. Since Venus' orbit is inside Earth's orbit, it displays phases similar to the Moon.
