In my off season this past fall, I decided to go to Kauai and go backpacking all over the island. Coming from Alaska it was quite pleasant to wear shorts constantly and have good fresh fruit everywhere you went. While I was camping on the west side of the island I decided to pull the camera out and get some Milky Way shots. What I totally forgot about was the #comet C/2023 A3 passing by our planet.

The hooting and hollering that I made when I first looked at the image could be heard for miles.

The upper part of the cloud is lit up from the moon rising behind the island creating a very pleasing image.
I am shooting this on a #sony A7iii with a 20mm f1.8 lens. 30” exposure, iso 1250

Planetary party portrait above Paranal!

In this image, taken in early February, the planets of the Solar System appear to parade one after the other above our Paranal Observatory in #Chile. Joining the party are the #Moon, the #MilkyWay, and a special guest: comet C/2024 G3 ☄️

A question we often get is whether the planets orbit the Sun in the same plane as the disc of the Milky Way. This image shows that's not the case: the plane of the Solar System –the ecliptic– is tilted about 60º relative to the Milky Way.

The image is a circular fisheye projection, with the horizon around the circular edge and the highest part of the sky at the centre of the circle. It shows eight telescope domes around the edge. The moon lights the telescopes and the desert from behind, creating a haze across, but above it the sky is pretty dark and full of stars. Our Milky Way galaxy –– an arc made dense by white points and hues of pink and purple –– crosses the image vertically. Several planets, which look like dots, appear aligned more or less horizontally across the sky. The image is marked with text for white points of interest, including the Milky Way, planets and comet C/2024 G3, which looks like the streak of a shooting star, blazing white.

This was a challenging photo. I captured it about 7 years ago while driving from Salt Lake City up to southern Montana to be in a friend's wedding. When I started looking into the logistics of my arrival time, I realized there would be an opportunity to photograph the Milky Way somewhere under the dark skies of northern Utah or southern Idaho. Not wanting to stray too far off the highway, I looked for areas that might offer a unique foreground for the composition.

I soon realized that the highway alignment (northwest to southeast) would allow for a "highway to the stars" type of image, and started looking for an ideal overpass. This one caught my eye and I couldn't have been happier with the results. It took some time to capture, as it was necessary to get all of the Milky Way images without traffic on the highway, and then of course I needed to get a few images with light trails from the cars on the highway below.

I didn't have star tracker at the time, but other than that there are few things I would've changed considering the challenge and how it turned out!

An image of the star field of the Milky Way reaching down towards the horizon, where it meets with the vanishing point of an interstate highway highway. Light trails from vehicle lights zip towards the confluence with the Milky Way, creating a "highway to the stars" effect.

here was my first real attempt at a tracked milky way! Was able to do a 90 second exposure at 85mm!! Nuts!

Hello! My name is Aaron. I’m a professional paramedic and nurse with a passion for nature and photography.

Im new here on Pixelfed but I’m looking forward to connecting with you all here.

My first image is a special one for me - taken during a midnight walk along a beach in Tofino with my wife and daughter as the Milky Way arced overhead.

Amongst my three attempts at astrophotography, this was the one somewhat successful excursion. The biggest lesson I learned that night is that when a pack of coyotes about 100 ft away howl, don’t panic. I was sure I’d get eaten.

I took copious notes from that night but have since misplaced them; the two brightest stars are planets. Don’t remember which ones, though.

That's Venus and The Milky Way (cue Bananarama's "Venus").

One of the best shots of the Milky Way that I've captured to date. This is a 20-image stack of minute-long exposures taken with the aid of a tracking mount to keep the camera gently centered on our galaxy. The dark skies are courtesy of a sparsely populated corner of the Ozark Mountains in north central Arkansas. I can't wait for Milky Way season this year and opportunities to get more photos like this one.

The core of the Milky Way arcs vertically into the sky. The orange-tinted glow of city lights along the horizon fade in a star-filled tapestry into the inky black void above.

There are mighty rivals for the famous Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula, like these, located in the not so famous SH2 284 nebula. You can find these in the Unicorn.

On January 21, 2025 there will be a planetary alignment of six planets. Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Venus, and Saturn will all be visible at the same time. All but Neptune will be visible to the naked eye.

This image is a depiction of a planet map from the Northern Hemisphere.

Andromeda–Milky Way collision or Milkomeda or Milkdromeda or our suggestion, Andromeda Way (a street we would like to live on...)

A two frame composite of the Milky Way and my kitty "Ding" waiting for me to join him in the freezing cold tent. Ding loved to go camping with me. I sure do miss Schrödinger, the Kampin' Kitty 💔. (Photo: Massacre Rim, International Dark Sky Sanctuary, Nevada (5/23/2020).)

A couple of images from the recent aurora sequence.

#AstroPhotography #samyang #AuroraAustralis #aurora #MilkyWay
An aurora fills the night sky in the upper 2 thirds, smooth water reflecting the colours in the foreground. An embankment with a few trees in silhouette to the right, a stone groyne and warning light at left. The aurora is banded horizontally, green close to the horizon, a pastel red and lighter pink above; and also vertically with columns appearing in the colour. One column has a more blue violet shade in this image.
A later image in the aurora sequence, with 2 blue tinged columns at the left, one directly above the blue warning light. 2 strikingly brighter and larger width in the centre, and faded thinner columns to the right in shades of pastel red
