A Breathtaking Photo That Will Make You See the Moon in a New Light
To commemorate International Astronomy Day on May 18, 2024, I revisited my long-standing passion for planetary imaging and turned my telescope towards our nearest celestial neighbor – the Moon. The resulting image is nothing short of spectacular!
It Finally Happened! The Northern Lights in My Backyard
I will remember the night of May 10-11, 2024 as one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life.
I saw the Northern Lights directly in my backyard!
This timelapse captures the intense geomagnetic storm that literally ignited the night sky with breathtaking Northern Lights.
The storm has been ignited by several coronal mass ejections coming from the giant sunspot region AR3664, 16 times larger than Earth.
Filmed using a Wyze Cam v3 security camera, this vibrant hues of green, purple and red pillars of light dancing across the sky left me overwhelmed with emotion.

The Rosette Nebula: a celestial gift for Valentine’s Day
To celebrate Valentine’s Day I decided to image the Rosette Nebula in constellation Monoceros (the Unicorn). Also known as SH2-275 in the Sharpless catalog, or Caldwell 49, it hosts the open cluster NGC2244. Armed with my trusty narrowband setup, this time I added a Starfield 1.0x flattener to my optical train. The final result did not disappoint me!
My Best Astroimages of 2023
Join me as I take a look back at the most exciting moments of my astroimaging journey in 2023, including a bright comet,
my first images of solar prominences, the Northern Lights from my own backyard, a bright supernova in M101, stunning images of deep sky objects, 6 planets and our own Moon and last but not least a partial solar eclipse in between clouds.
Get ready for another orbit around the Sun and, as always, remember to keep looking up at the stars!
