CALVIN: If people sat outside and looked at the stars each night, I’ll bet they’d live a lot differently.
HOBBES: How so?
CALVIN: Well, when you look into infinity, you realize that there are more important things than what people do all day.
HOBBES: We spent our day looking under rocks in the creek.
CALVIN: I mean other people. #longexposure #nightimages #nightshooter #nightshooters #nightpics #milkywaygalaxy #astrophotography #astrophoto #milkywayphotography #astrophotography #longexposure #longexpohunter #longexpo #amazing_longexpo #amazingearth #milkywayphoto #milkyway

Seagull Nebula - This portrait of the cosmic bird covers a 1.6 degree wide swath across the plane of the Milky Way, near the direction of Sirius, alpha star of the constellation Canis Major. Dominated by the reddish glow of atomic hydrogen, the complex of gas and dust clouds with bright young stars spans over 100 light-years at an estimated 3,800 light-year distance.

Cat’s Paw Nebula - At 5,500 light years distance in the constellation of Scorpius, the Cat’s Paw Nebula is an emission nebula containing a star forming region with many massive, young stars within.
As usual, winter has been challenging to try and take night sky photos! Not only has it been very cloudy, but there have been a lot of windy nights, as was the case on this night. As such, the stars aren’t quite as tight and round as I’d like, but I’m still satisfied with how this photo came out. For now! I’ll hopefully try it again in the future after I’ve further improved my skills and equipment.

Stargazing at MBO - It was a cold night with a bright moon, but that didn’t stop members at Mount Burnett Observatory getting outside and enjoying the winter night sky. This tiny planet panorama shows the observatory’s two domes and a close up of one of the smaller dobsonian telescopes.

Trifid Nebula - After a three month break due to bad weather, illness and injury, it was great to get under the stars again last night! This time I tried one of the most popular winter winter targets: Messier 20, the Trifid Nebula. This emission/reflection nebula pair sits in Sagittarius towards the Milky Way core at a distance of 5200 light years.Telescope: 8“ f4 Newtonian

Seeing the Jupiter - Saturn conjunction with the moon seemed unlikely as I was shooting a storm and clouds earlier in the evening, but I saw this break just as Jupiter had set behind this ridge. I drove across the neighborhood to lower the apparent height of the ridge, and I was able to capture both planets (below and right of the clouds) with the moon before they set. The earth shine on the shaded portion of the moon, moonshine on the lake, and the iridescent clouds, were a nice bonus!
