“On approach to Andromeda” is a visualization of what you might see outside our own galaxy with the foreground stars removed!
The beautiful Trifid Nebula, also known as Messier 20, lies about 5,000 light-years away, a colorful study in cosmic contrasts. Trisected by dust lanes the Trifid itself is about 40 light-years across and a mere 300,000 years old.
Spiral galaxy NGC 4565 is viewed edge-on from planet Earth. Also known as the Needle Galaxy for its narrow profile, bright NGC 4565 is a stop on many telescopic tours of the northern sky, in the faint but well-groomed constellation Coma Berenices.
I spent two years imaging and processing a high resolution multi panel mosaic of the horsehead and flame nebula in Orion, using the @planewaveinstruments CDK14! After countless hours, I’m finally ready to present it, I hope you enjoy it!

This is my real first light with my Sigma 65mm f2! It had to be done on the Milkyway Core from La Palma and its of course an HaRGB Mosaic with lots of exposure time :)
I think the overall look and feel is even better than my 135mm pano from La Palma.
Here’s a two panel mosaic of the Dragons of Ara, shot from my friend @greg_turgeon’s @PWInstruments in Chile!

The fire near Kitt peak right now
INSANE FOOTAGE - On the Contreras Fire in Arizona. A massive dust devil in the background of a tanker drop. Last reported at 6,700 acres the fire is on the Tohono O'odham Indian Reservation. Multiple Hotshot crews are working the fire #contrerasfire #arizona #azwx #wildfire #fire
My deepest image yet, a 113 hour 4 panel mosaic of the Rosette/Skull nebula in Monoceros! #Astrophotography

That’s no moon… wait, it’s actually Saturns moon Mimas! The uncanny likeness of Star Wars’ Death Star is due to the Herschel impact crater! May the Fourth Be with you!

This is my biggest achievement in astrophotography so far! Multiple months of testing with different edits and settings but now finally ended up with this :)
