Some parts of 'our' galaxy and one galaxy of some aliens can be seen at top left:


New stars are being made here:


Would need a proper telescope and tracking mount to get something else than glossy spot visible

Oh yes, do you think this classifies as arctic photography?





-25C and light wind, stand still for 3 hours and you don't need to think getting inside...

Them are eating my powerpole



See?

I really wish I'd been getting out as much as you mate, your photos are getting so good lately. Nice one

Thanks, I guess 2GB of photos in every 3 days is proper amount of training?

Too bad it is not long before need to spend days with some other tasks, so it will be only dark time photos for a while.

Really?
Thats awsome.
I'd have just thought it was part of a tree.

Remarkable work, as always.
A lot of time, very well spent.

LOL, sure there is tree too, bit right to that tree is one star that is blurred, that is actually a galaxy named M31 if I remember it now correctly

This another blurred thing is called M42 aka Orion nebula, they say that is place where new stars are being made...



d3k4y0, nice atmosphere in that pic, it looks just same how I imagine UK being at winter

Ah yes is see it now.

Not far from my favorite constallation: Its called 340GL, if I remember correctly.

I'm likin' all the photos recently posted,well with the exception of one enhanced photo perhaps

I particularly like this one.Jtbo was right about the atmosphere but is forgetting the latent heat potential which I can clearly see

Keep 'em coming boys.

I just found interesting fact that only 10% of UK surface is covered by forests, when in finland that is over 74%, I never knew that UK has so many fields

I will make now only one photo per post, let's see how it will come out

Can you spot a Venus from photo?

Light conditions are not optimal, need to find bit darker place to take photos:

So some 20km later I find bit better place (darkest place in ~600km radius I believe), view to approx north:

So here is view to west:

So what it is like above? It is stars why I drove such distance, well there were few:
