Astrophotography

• 9.Other

Observing the skies is a fascinating experience. Seeing planetary features, comets, eclipses and other astronomical phenomena with your own eyes is very interesting. And it can get pretty close to Sci-Fi at times, when spotting the ISS, Tiangong or the Starlink satellite train. This album includes my astrophotography pictures taken using a Nikon DSLR camera and various lenses, mainly a Sigma 150-600mm (no telescope or astronomy equipment).

In addition to pictures, I made an ISS Moon transit video, available here.

I used astronomy info provided by Stellarium. The Iridium flare and Starlink photos were taken using info provided by heavens-above.com. The ISS and Tiangong transit photos used info provided by transit-finder.com. Comet tracking and brigthness information was provided by The Sky Live and the Comet Observation Database.
