HH 555 is the clearest example of a Herbig-Haro object in the Pelican Nebula. In this image detail you can easily see the jet shooting out of the tip of the pillar indicating the presence of an unseen protostar.
Moreover there are more irradiated Jets and outflows in the Pelican Nebula as you can see in the image like: HH 563, HH 564, HH 565, HH 566, HH 567 and the HH 568.

Rise of Mars at Lake Szálka
Copyright: György Soponyai
I had only one weekend in May to do some "recreational" nightscape photographing and those nights the sky was unexpectedly clear. Szálka is a small village in South Hungary with an almost perfect Southern horizon. The small lake near the village is very popular amongst bathers and fishermen.

THE BELT OF VENUS
Canon T2i and 70-200mm/f4 IS
On Sunday, June 19th, the moon had already set, but I had a beautiful rendition of the Belt Of Venus. I was on a ridge above the Chief Joseph Scenic Highway northwest of Cody, Wyoming, looking at the northern range of the Absaroka Mountains. An anti-crepuscular ray from high clouds to the east of me cast an additional shadow on the left side of the photo, above Trout Peak, at 12,226 feet the highest mountain in the North Absarokas.

Cazadores de Luna llena - Hunters full Moon
Aprovechando la Luna llena de Junio, que este año coincidía con el Solsticio, varios amigos fotógrafos quedamos para cazarla saliendo tras el imponente pueblo de Espejo (Córdoba, España).
Las condiciones eran inmejorables, el aire estaba limpio y transparente, no había una sola nube.
A una distancia de algo más de 14 km del castillo de Espejo, en mitad de un campo de trigo recién segado, sacamos nuestras cámaras y trípodes y esperamos que saliera por el lugar esperado.
Yo puse mi cámara unos 300 metros más atrás para cazar también a los cazadores.
Taking advantage of the full moon of June, which this year coincided with the solstice, several photographers were friends to hunt out after the stunning town of Espejo (Cordova, Spain).
The conditions were excellent, the air was clean and clear, there was not a single cloud.
At a distance of just over 14 km from Castle Espejo, in the middle of a field of freshly cut wheat, we took our cameras and tripods and hope to get out of the place expected.
I put my camera about 300 meters back to also hunt the hunters.

A few days around summer soliste, sun sets directly behind the castle ruin of Geroldseck. This event can be seen from the Sandhasen hut in Haslach im Kinzigtal (Germany). A few attempts were necessary to get the perfect shot. This year I were lucky.
