I just learned why astronauts seem weightless in space and I’m fucking reeling. It’s just so obvious and so amazing like omg, of course that’s why. Of course! Why would I ever think it had anything to do with zero gravity?

#Repost @nightscapades ・・・ 26 Nov 2018. The heavens at halfway 📆 Not quite halfway, but it was only a week after the midpoint of 2018 when I was out in the cold of an Aussie winter night, capturing the photos that I used to create this vertical panoramic image. Located near the rural city of Lismore in New South Wales, Australia, this old and former church building is blessed with dark skies on a moonless night. The lack of light pollution, as well as the dry and clear air on that evening, provided excellent conditions for revealing the wispy dust lanes and dark nebulae that characterise the core region of our Milky Way galaxy. 🌌🌟💫 As with so many of my photos from this year, Mars is a dominant player in the scene, looking big, bright and orange over at the top-left of the frame. The Large Magellanic Cloud is peeking out from the bottom edge of the church’s roof on the left, with its sibling the Small Magellanic Cloud making a more conspicuous appearance over the tree near the lower corner of the frame. The short tail of a meteor forms a triangle with Mars and the Small Cloud. For all of the interest that these celestial objects give to the scene, it’s our majestic, magic and magnificent Milky Way that my eyes go straight to, every time I look at this photo. 📷 As I mentioned above, this is a vertical panorama which I composited from ten single, overlapping images. For each of those individual frames I used a Canon EOS 6D Mk II camera, a Rokinon 24mm lens @ f/2.4, and a 15-second exposure @ ISO 6400. I had the camera mounted on a Nodal Ninja III panoramic head, tipped at 90 degrees to allow for the vertical orientation. • • • • • @astro_photography_ @space @universe247 @photographerfocus #astro_photography_ #astronomy #astrophotography #canon #darkskyshots #earth_tag #ig_astrophotography #nightimages #nightphotography #nightscape #nightscapeoz #nightscaper #nightshooters #space #stargazing #startalkradio #timelessuniverse #universe #universetoday #WeOwnTheNight_IG #milkyway #galaxy #WOTN_MilkyWay #MilkyWayChasers #MilkyWayGrams #lismore #church https://www.instagram.com/p/BqynLIEB7gc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7sc4wcpcqhen

#Repost @nightscapades ・・・ 25 Sep 2018. Bioluminescence on Mars 😱 This whole scene looks very eerie, to me. The time was around 3:00 am, and Mars was very low in the southwestern sky. Its reflection was so bright! The bioluminescence in the water was also brilliant, and I wanted to line the two up so that the light from Mars would be reflected in one of the small pools of bio on the sandbar. 👏 There have been several photos that I’ve posted where I’ve mentioned my amazement that the light from a celestial object, so far away from us, is still strong enough to penetrate our atmosphere and then be reflected off some wet surface. Being able to pair that amazement with my excitement at photographing bioluminescence for the first time was worth all of the failed shots that it took to get this one. Failing is one of the many great things about digital photography, though. Learning from a failed photo is way cheaper and requires so much less time in the digital realm that it ever did in the film days. 📷 This photograph is a single-frame image that I shot with my Canon EOS 6D Mk II camera, a Rokinon 24mm lens @ f/2.4, for a 15-second exposure @ ISO 6400. • • • • • @astro_photography_ @space @universe247 @photographerfocus #astro_photography_ #astronomy #astrophotography #darkskyshots #elitelongexposures #fantastic_universe #globalpixels #ig_astrophotography #ig_shutterworld #night_shooterz #nightimages #nightphotography #nightscape #nightscapeoz #nightscaper #nightshooters #stargazing #startalkradio #timelessuniverse #universe #universetoday #WeOwnTheNight_IG #night_excl #StargazingABC #super_longexpo #mars #bioluminescence @eurobodalla https://www.instagram.com/p/BoQMmMUB_5c/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mijohf6oj1ey
