Simply magnificent despite the fact that I consider the SMC to be "boring" in comparison to the LMC. The only way it could be made better is with OIII exposures, I like OIII more than Ha.

Draw well, Orion and faint airglow
Copyright: György Soponyai

The moonless night, the dry skies and the moderate light pollution led me out to this well near Kiskörös at the border of Kiskunság National Park. By inspecting the first photos I quickly realized the faint green background light however the airglow remained invisible to naked eye.

This kind of old draw well is the symbol of the Hungarian Plain, the Puszta.

Stars in the city
This was shot just below my appartments in Auckland City, New Zealand. All that orange glow from bottom is from the Southern Motorway and the blue glow at the top is from the lights around the appartment. Was pretty amazed at what the camera captured, this is a single exposure using the ETTR (Expose To The Right) technique.
