images I obtained last two nights while observing at the Nordic Optical Telescope at Roque de los Muchachos, La Palma, Spain.
One is a satelite trace nicely caught across the Milky Way, I was doing a time lapse and it was a serendipitious catch (27/ix/2013 20:48UT).
The other is the Milky Way and Venus at the beginning of the night (red trace can still be seen on the horizon), with Venus's light bouncing from the surface of the Atlantic Ocean (this was 28/ix/2013, 19:20UT).
I use to do images for pure pleasure of having a nice picture, and did not really think of publishing them anywhere, but since I have seen reactions of people to which I have shown them, I gained confidence to try and submit. Still I have a feeling you might have loads of similar stuff.

This is a multi-panel mosaic of the core of M31 I assembled
from R and B-band data downloaded from the HLA.

Here's a 10 hour LRGB of the Pacman imaged in Mayhill NM over the past two nights.

attached is my image of asteroid 2012 DA14 taken during closest approach on Feb 16th. It is seen passing by IC2602, the Southern Pleiades. It was taken from a small country town called Jamberoo, south of Wollongong, NSW, Australia.
I haven't seen many photos of DA14, at least none where you can distinguish it from other points of light in the sky, but on this occasion a 90 second exposure shows its apparent motion against the stars. I had thought every person with a telescope would have been up that night taking images of the asteroid, however this image appears to be quite unique.
It is for this reason that I would like to submit the photo to APOD.
It was frightening to watch how quickly this object was moving; knowing the whole time the motion and brightness were due to its size, speed and closeness to our precious planet. While I like chasing unique astronomical events, I'd prefer never to have to see another asteroid this close again!
If you use this image could you please give me credit as the photographer and a link to my twitter account. Thanks!
