In this video I showcase some of the near-infrared astrophotography photos taken using my modified DJI Mavic 2 drone at the @astronomyireland Star-B-Q 2021. Long exposure photography reveals some great detail of the galactic dust lanes containing the opaque cosmic dust that forms filaments in the plane of the galactic disks.
These dark regions of the sky, in contrast with the bright star fields concentrated in the spiral arms, create distinct shadowy shapes that were interpreted as constellations in their own right along with the connect-the-dots style constellations of the ancient Inca Civilization in particular.
Software used is Sequator, a great piece of open-source, regularly updated software that deserves support! check it out: https://sites.google.com/site/sequatorglobal/download
