Somewhere in the Middle East a frightened young girl prayed to Allah to send angels down from Heaven to protect her family from an evil dictator.....

This image is 2-panel mosaic of NGC 3372 (Eta Carinae nebula), one of the brightest and largest DSOs in the night sky.
The image is the result of a 2-panel mosaic in SHO. Aiming at a 9-panel mosaic to cover the entire nebula...hoping my computer's graphics card can handle it 😅. A total of 14hr integration time so far.

The star at the center (η Car) was once the second brightest star in the night sky after it suddenly exploded in the 19th century...an event known as The Great Eruption.

this year we were treated to these migrating visitors for a full 2 weeks, as opposed to the usual 1 week - what joy!

The Eta Aquariids meteor shower, which peaked in early May this year, was captured in this stunning image by astrophotographer Petr Horálek. It was taken near San Pedro de Atacama, a Chilean town about 50 km away from the Chajnantor observatory site, where APEX and ALMA, astronomical facilities co-owned by ESO, are located. The Eta Aquariids meteors are caused by leftover debris from Halley’s comet and make up the bright, arrow-like darts of light in the photo. But don’t stop there: this image is literally full to the brim of astronomical phenomena.
The luminous object towards the bottom of the sky is Venus. Above it, arranged in a satisfying line, are several planets in conjunction. Directly above Venus is Jupiter, followed by the bright red Mars, and then Saturn. Conjunctions such as this are rare, often occurring decades apart. The planets also trace the zodiacal light, the faint glow stretching like a pillar, up towards the bright stellar-dense centre of the Milky Way, our home galaxy.
Zodiacal light is often seen from dark sites like ESO observatories just after sunset, or before sunrise, and is the reflected sunlight from dust particles in the plane of the Solar System. The dust comes from asteroids, passing comets, and even from other inner Solar System planets, such as Mars. Here we see the zodiacal light paired with the red sunset over the mountains and volcanoes surrounding the Chajnantor site, a spectacular backdrop to this dreamy night sky.

During my trip to Australia in April this year, I had to make the most of the Southern Hemisphere's sky. And this is what I did!
I had no fancy equipment, but a telephoto lens, my astro-modified Nikon D7500 and a startracker. This was sufficient to produce this beautiful image of the Eta Carinae nebula, taken from Denham.

The Humunculus nebula is a very difficult object to be photographed by amateur astrophotographers. With a combination of very short exposures, I was able to partially solve the nebula even while photographing with a telescope with little aperture. I hope you like the result, in the coming days I will update this capture with short exposures in RGB to be able to solve the colors of this beautiful nebula.

La festividad de San Ignacio de Loyola es una gran fiesta para los mendizales que suben a Gorbeia. Todos los años nos estamos reuniendo cada vez más gente en las estribaciones de uno de los montes más significativos de la Comunidad Autónoma Vasca. El día fue espectacular con una brisa que corría a primeras horas de la mañana y algo de calor donde no corría el aire (detrás de las faldas de Aldamin). Hacia la costa todavía se vislumbraba una densa capa. Se sube a pie, en bici, a lomos de un hermoso caballo... También pude conversar con un señor de 81 años. Oí comentar que también estuvo un anciano de 91 años en la cima del monte y con ganas de repetir el año que viene. ¡Qué así sea! Aquí un retrato de mis amigos Jon y Garbiñe, pareja que todos los años sube a Gorbea el día de San Inazio.

Processing: by Swift. Data acquired by Donkelaar. Integration just 4.5 hours per Chanel with a Veloce RH 200. at f2.8 (fast optics) It would be very nice to see what 30 hours integration look like using this scope and 16803 ccd combination.
