I've looked through this thread of wonderful images, and I want to thank everyone who contributed. Thank you so much for your hard work and your inspiration.
I'm going to mention just a few images which speak particularly strongly to my preferences.
Jeff Dai, I love that galactic icefall with the glittering Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy above.

Antonio Cabanillas and William Alvarez, I completely love your fantastic image of IC 4065 in Scorpius.
Philippe TOSI, I'm fascinated at that "churning full Moon sky" over the Pyrenees mountains, which could have been taken from a dark fantasy movie.
