Details:
In order, the objects are as follows: M27 Dumbbell Nebula, M81 Bode's Galaxy, Helix Nebula, and the NGC 891 galaxy.
These images have been acquired by me over time. The total amount of exposure time for all images combined would be about 1.5 hours.
M27 was imaged with the Prompt3 telescope, red, green, and blue filters, with flats and darks applied. Although a little overexposed, I still think this picture is really nice. The next three pictures were taken with the Stone Edge telescope: M81, iprime, gprime, and rprime, 300 seconds exposures added, dark frames applied. The Helix Nebula, 300 seconds exposures added, iprime, gprime, rprime, darks applied. Lastly, NGC891 galaxy - iprime, gprime, rprime, darks applied, 300 second exposures added.
Enjoy! I turn 14 on January 3rd, so I am going to post a few more pictures before new years.
