All these images are beautiful but I particularly love the image of the angel nebula.
I remember Steve Mandel's image of this area but this image brings it to life in a way I haven't seen before.
Fantastic image!

I like #1 best because it's so sharp.
The edge-on galaxy in #4 looks interesting!
Best wishes,
Thomas Hofstätter

Yeah I agree with Hofi. I love the colours in photo 1. and the eery stillness of the body of water. I loathe Light pollution, but lucky for me I live only 2 hours away from dumfries which has one of the darkest skies in the world :) YAAAAY.
