Men working in the shadow of the observatory

JL Dauvergne / Ciel et Espace
Thanks to guys like Guillaume Blanchard, an observatory at the state of the art like Paranal can produce good science every days. Guillaume is an optical ingineer, he is in charge with colleagues of vital points for such an observaotry, like the coating of the mirors. On this picture, he his close to VISTA, a 4 meter survey telescope especialised in IR.
This impressive telescope with a primary miror at f/1, have just ended two of its goals :

Road to the sky
http://astrophotography.fr/
JL Dauvergne / Ciel et Espace
This is the VLT observatory as seen from Vista's plateform. I like this point of view, it's like an invitation to go to the top. The road with very faint lights powered by batteries and solar panels leads to the top of the Paranal mountain where 4 of the biggest telescopes of the world are exploring the secrets of the univers.

Venus and Jupiter over Paranal

JL Dauvergne / Ciel et Espace
To have a different point of view of what we usualy see of Paranal observaoty, I've been outside, on the road. With the end of the sun set, Jupiter, Venus and the Pleiades it was quite a good choice. VLT is on the center, Vista on the right.

Re: Recent Submissions: 2012 April 14-
A few comments here.
Paul Haese, I like all the fascinating details seen in the thick gas cloud where there is various stages of star formation going on. I think our galaxy feels youthful when I see pictures like yours!
Lorenzo Comolli, that's an impressive auroral display! I like the green-illuminated red house in the foreground and the mountains in the background. Norway is a photogenic country!
Emil Ivanov, that's a very fine picture of the intrerplay between bright blue reflection nebulosity, faint red emission nebulosity and thick dark "tubes" of concentrated gas and dust, from which new stars can be born.
Alistair Symon, I like both your images. One is predominantly blue, one predominantly red, but both pay tribute to the indvidual characteristics of gas clouds in the Milky Way.
Jerry Lodriguss, right now your image won't open for me, but I've seen it before and admired it. So that is why the rings of Saturn look so very bright sometimes, and much fainter at other times?
Efrain Morales, it's interesting to see all the exposures that you combained into one finished color picture.
chapdelaine, that's a nicely detailed Hubble image of galaxy NGC 7217.
John Davis, I love that image! This is exactly the kind of image that makes me very, very happy. The details are so fascinating and the colors are wonderful!
Behyar Bakhshandeh, your Sun images are all very fine.
Lynn Hilborn, I like your ethereal space angel!
Don Goldman, starsurfer brought me a link to your images. I liked thenm very much! And this planetary nebula is both interesting in ints structure and delightful in its colors.
JL Dauvergne, your image really had me staring. Imagine being able to see both Orion and the Large Magellanic Cloud in the sky at the same time, and not even too far away from each other! That's a reminder for us northerners of how wonderful the sky can look from other latitudes. I like your other picture, too.
avdhoeven, you know that I love your processed version of the center of M94. This is a truly fascinating galaxy with an amazing range of populations, from old yellow stars in the nucleus to an almost unique sort of "green" intermediate stars in the inner bulge, to a remarkable large and brilliant blue ring interspersed with reddish-pink emission nebulae. Thank you so much for bringing us this picture!
Rothko, that's a truly interesting image of the Moon! Unfortunately I don't read Spanich, so I can't read more about it.
Thanks to everyone who contributed images here!
