A classic midnight-hour auroral arc during a Kp4-level aurora show on March 18-19, 2025, taken from home in southern Alberta, Canada, at latitude 51º N. The panorama extends for about 120º across the north, with the arc of the auroral oval centered on a point north-northeast from my longitude.

 

The main green auroral oval is topped by high-altitude red rays. But this pano also shows what appears to be some white continuum emission, where the red and green areas blend.

 

This was at about 1:10 am MDT on March 19, 2025.

 

Technical:

A 120° panorama of 7 segments of 10 seconds each with the Viltrox 16mm lens at f/1.8 on the Nikon Z6III at ISO 1600. Segment spacing was 30°. Stitched with Camera Raw.

An Avatar body floating in an amnio tank in the Pandora Conservation Initiative Lab on the Flight of Passage queue in Pandora - World of Avatar at Disney's Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida on Saturday, September 19, 2020.

 

I like the look of the Fish Eye Lens effect here. Cleaned up the noise using Topaz Labs' Photo AI app.

This is a telescopic close-up of the eclipsed Sun at the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse, with the Sun's intricate atmosphere, the corona, surrounding the dark silhouetted disk of the Moon.

 

The corona is marked by swirls, loops and streamers shaped by magnetic fields (note the loops around the pink prominences) and exhibits the classic round, symmetrical, and flower-like shape of a solar maximum corona. Peeking out from behind the right limb of the Moon are several bright prominences, pink from bright hydrogen emission. They were most obvious at this eclipse toward the end of totality as the Moon uncovered them on the western limb of the Sun.

 

The corona appears silvery-blue in tone, with the faintly coloured round halo likely coming from atmospheric diffraction effects from the high cirrus cloud the Sun was embedded in for this eclipse at my site in Quebec on the east shore of Lac Brome.

 

Even so, despite the clouds, a few stars shine through: the 5th magnitude double star Zeta Piscium at the 9 o'clock posiiton left of the Sun, and 6th magnitude 88 Piscium at the 8 o'clock position below. I do not see any sign of the SOHO sun-grazing comet in the field.

 

Celestial north is approximately at top in this orientation.

 

This version was created by stacking the aligned frames into a smart object, then applying a mean stack mode averaging blend. I have other versions blended with other methods for a different look.

 

In blending the exposures in this version I accentuated the coronal structures with sharpening, to a level that is more than the eye would have seen looking through a telescope. Even so the result still presents a somewhat "natural" and softer looking image, and making the inner corona look brighter than the fainter outer parts of the corona, just as the eye saw it.

 

Technical Details:

This is a stack of 20 exposures, from 1/800 second to 1/2 second, with the Canon R5 at ISO 100 on the Astro-Physics Traveler 105mm refractor at f/6 with no reducer or flattener. It was tracking the Sun on the Astro-Physics AP400 mount, recently returned from a long stay in Australia. All exposures taken with auto-bracketing as rapidly as possible in the last part of totality, to minimize alignment issues from the disk of the Moon moving relative to the Sun. An additional single short exposure layered in with a Blend-If adjustment (like a mask) added the pink prominences. Another short exposure masked in added the dark lunar disk, to again produce an image as your (my!) eye saw it, even through a telescope.

 

I blended the exposures in Photoshop with a Mean stack mode applied to the stack of 20 exposures packed into a smart object. Sharpening and structure enhancement was provided by applications of Adobe Camera Raw as a filter, the Nik Collection Detail Extractor, and blending in layers created by applying Image Calculations from a Radial Blur version (essentially a form of unsharp masking), plus Topaz Photo AI applied to the prominence and lunar disk layers. ON1 NoNoise AI 2024 applied to the full base-level stack to reduce the noise that so often still appears in stacked eclipse images.

This is an image of the Milky Way galactic center as it rose over Cranberry Lake. Cranberry Lake is in the Adirondack region of New York. I setup my camera and StarAdventurer 2i on the beach of the state campground. I stacked 94 light frames and 20 bias frames in Sequator and processed the output in Photoshop and Topaz PhotoAI (noise reduction and sharpening).

This is Venus on March 18, 2025, 4 days before it reached inferior conjunction between Earth and the Sun, so with Venus nearly at its last appearance in the evening sky after spending several months as a prominent "evening star."

 

Its phase was a thin 1.7% illuminated crescent and its disk was 59 arc seconds across. This was large enough for the crescent phase and disk to be easily resolvable in modest 8x binoculars, as simulated here in a telephoto lens image that frames the scene with a field of view similar to that of binoculars.

 

The exposure needed for the sky and ground does overexpose and enlarge the crescent of Venus here, making it look thicker than the thin sliver it was. Venus was at magnitude -4.1 this night.

 

Technical:

A single 1/2-second exposure with the Canon RF70-200mm lens at 200mm and f/4 on the Canon R5 at ISO 500.

Whenever we get clear skies and good viewing conditions on the east coast, I always try and take advantage of them. Last night I made the trip out to Montauk Point Lighthouse. The vantage point I selected (on the beach) prevented me from using my tracker, so this is a composite of a single image of the Milky Way and two images of the lighthouse combined in Photoshop and finished with Topaz PhotoAI.

Nikon D750 Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8 @ f/4.0

Milky Way ISO 5000 Exp. 10sec.

Lighthouse ISO 1600 Exp. 1 sec. & ½ sec.
