In the lightpolluted skies in The Netherlands, narrowband imaging is the thing to do. I got 19 hours of subs with 5.nm Astrodon Hubble palet filters during 8 nights and needed 2 months of patience.
The setup is a 10" modified GSO RC with a QSI583WSG camera and SXV AOL active optics.

The 2048 x 2048 pixel version may be found here.

Just 5 x 1,000 second blue subs plus 5 x 200 second subs in each of red, green and blue, all at f/7 using a TEC 140 telescope plus an FLI ML16803 camera. Processing via PixInsight and Photoshop. More detail in this thread over at the Stargazer's Lounge.

Bob.

Gorgeous, Bob. The wisps/textures look like paint strokes.

Nice capture Thierry, the long exposure with moonlight
really brings out the landscape. Well done.

The sun had some great filaments yesterday. They went over more than 1/4th of the sun and continued over the edge as can be seen in this image.

La luna del cazador también conocida como luna sanguinea es la primera luna llena después de la luna de la cosecha, que es la luna llena más cercana al equinoccio otoñal. La
Luna del Cazador se llama así porque la luz de la luna es ideal para que los cazadores puedan tirar a las aves migratorias en el norte de Europa. El nombre también se dice que ha sido utilizado por los nativos americanos ya que los rastreadores podian seguir y matar a sus presas a la luz de la luna para conseguir alimentos en otoño y almacenarlos para el invierno. La Luna del Cazador y la Luna de las Cosechas no son más brillantes, más grandes o más amarillas que durante otras épocas del año, pero todas las lunas llenas tienen sus propias características especiales, basándose principalmente en su posición en la eclíptica en el cielo en la época del año que son visibles. Las lunas llenas de septiembre, octubre y noviembre, como se ve desde el hemisferio norte-que se corresponden con la luna llena de marzo, abril y mayo, según se ve desde el hemisferio sur, son bien conocidos en el folklore del cielo.
