Title: Love those celestial bodies
Post by: Chairman Bill on February 06, 2015, 07:49:30 am: We've got one for trees and one for clouds, so I thought maybe one for stars, the moon, planets and all things similar. Feel free to join in.

This one has some cloud, some trees, and some celestial objects, including a fuzzy Andromeda (the fuzziness in the trees is wind movement - they're not usually fuzzy).

BTW, the title of this one, the Seven Sisters, relates to the location on the Quantock hills, not to stars or anything.

All the best,
Sandro

Well done!

I once tried astrophotography where I live just outside of Baltimore, Maryland and it was a literal washout of city lights. Photos of the moon on the other hand are doable. Here's last August's supermoon rising.

Love the colour of that moon
+1. And the streaks of clouds across it.
