The Crab Nebula AKA, M1 (Messier 1), NGC 1952, Taurus A is a supernova remnant and pulsar wind nebula in the constellation of Taurus.. It is about 6,500 light-years from earth and contains a pulsar neutron star, which would explain the brightness of the cloud. I took this image using narrowband filters over many nights for more than 11 hours of exposure time.

Thanks for your visit

I haven't been able to post much lately, but today I had a little time to revisit some past adventures.

This is a beautiful walk day or night.

We found this church ruin in Southern Colorado.

The sky was captured in the heart of the Simpson Desert along the Madigan Line under very dark skies. Shot using a Zeiss Milvus 135mm @ f/2 mounted on a Sony A7r2. The mosaic was stitched from individual untracked frames which were exposed for 2.5s and assembled in PTGui. Final processing was completed in PixInsight and Photoshop. The pinnacle in the foreground was photographed separately in Karlamilyi National Park, Pilbara, and blended with the night sky to complete the composition.

A magic nebula

Nascosta nella costellazione di Cefeo, a oltre 7.000 anni luce, la Nebulosa del Mago si apre come un sipario di gas e polveri.

Il suo nome nasce dalla forma che ricorda un mago col cappello a punta, scolpito dalla luce e dai venti stellari.

Le giovani stelle massicce fanno risplendere di colore rosso le nuvole di gas l’idrogeno circostante, creando pennellate di magia

Tell your critic about work! :)

I have ever seen. somewhere in the middle of nowhere between Idaho and Oregon. I had always thought photos where you can really see the milky-way like this were somehow enhanced or something, but it really looked like this to my eyes. light pollution really is a shame.
