While preparing for the conjunction this weekend I notice some unusual clouds the day before. It appears to be a lenticular cloud forming above other clouds with the crepuscular rays shinning through.
On the 27th of July 2014 I saw some of the most beautiful Noctilucent Clouds I've ever seen. They emerged shortly after sunset and after a while they covered the entire sky. In this movie I've included an all sky time lapse that shows how these clouds changed over the course of two hours.
Wow that is incredible!!!
You have shown some of the rarely seen outer tidal features! A wider field of view would be needed to show all of the tidal streams associated with this galaxy!

Thank you very much.
I enjoyed processing the image. Is captured from the center of a small town, with their lamps. Later try to incorporate shots Halfa.

Is it a star trail photo or is it a painting? Well I think the latter! Using a mirror I made the Universe the painter of this special canvas.

Caught on the dawn of August 24, flying over the Gulf of Mexico. I was expecting only Jupiter and Venus, so Diana's presence was a very pleasant surprise!
Wow this is one of the best images of this dark nebula! This is probably the best dark nebula in Aquila. To think that once upon a time it was unknown, I think it became more popular after Bernhard Hubl took an image of it. Also personally I would have preferred the image north up.
