Astrophotography

Watching the skies is a fascinating experience. It can get pretty close to SciFi at times, when seeing the planets and some of their general features with your own eyes, or when spotting the ISS or the Starlink satellite train for example.

This album includes my astrophotography pictures taken using a Nikon DSLR camera and no telescope (used various lenses, mostly a Sigma 150-600mm).

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 CSS transit photos used info provided by transit-finder.com. I also made an ISS Moon transit video, available here.
