One night, two comets...
The straight and greenish tail of comet Lemmon contrasts with the curved and whitish tail of PanSTARRS as they set behind the Andes, above Bariloche, Argentina. So beautiful! Enjoy it when they move to the Northern hemisphere!

Timelapse of a strong KP 6 aurora in the Lofoten Islands, near Laukvik, in Norway, during the night of the 19th-20th January, 2013.
From 00:35 to 01:11, the aurora turned into a "pulsating" aurora : the aurora clouds were blinking.

Aurora Borealis in Saariselkä-Finnish
Hi to Everybody,
Aurora Borealis in Saariselkä-Finnish
http://www.flickr.com/photos/66966766@N ... hotostream I would like to share with all of yours, this photo of the Northern light made in Saariselkä-Finnish. The photo have been made in the top of the mountain at -15 Cº Degrees, and I had lucky to see with my eyes the amazing event of the Auroras Borealis also called Nothern lights. Is an special moment to see with your eyes, how the Auroras changing so faster, so you don´t have too much time to make the photo, because behind your back have another one most amazing, it like to have a energy bath.
Equipment used: Canon 60Da, Sigma 15 Eyefish, Vixen Kit Polarie, 1 x 20 seconds at ISO 800, processed with PixInsight 1.8.0 RC3.

The winter milky way over "la Roche de Feu" in Brittany, France. We can see Jupiter and Orion which are the "stars" of this winter sky show.
Sorry for the bad quality of the compression.

Jellyfish or High Altitude Virga Sunrise
Virga is rain/snow that never reaches ground. In this particular case mid-altitude winds are shearing off the higher altitude clouds rain/snow fall.

Spot the Station – 26 Feb 2013
© Thodoris Tzalavras
Shot this picture from our rooftop in the center of Nicosia, Cyprus—hardly the best place for any sort of astrophotography, but still, the objective was to spot the Station and we had fun doing it!

Copyleft: Jaime Fernandez Artistic composition made of three different images:
- Moon, a four images mosaic of the crescent moon, 4,6 days old. Celestron 9.25 f/6.3 + Atik 314.
- Background, a two images mosaic of central galaxy at Sagitarius. DSLR 18/70 lens.
- Earth, based on Apollo 11 imaginery.
That's quite obviuos it's an artistic photo montage, made just for beauty and enjoy.
Stargazer used to observe the moon will quickly found also that the moon will never be seen this way, even from a starship.
Do you know why?...![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

2.38am and the Milky Way rises high above Wellington's South Coast in New Zealand. The single bright light on the horizon under the Milky Way is the Baring Head Lighthouse. The glow of Wellington and the coastal suburbs of Owhiro Bay and Island Bay can be seen to the left of the photo.
