Backyard Astro photography.
Mp3 download of the best star watching music ever! Meteor Shower [link] by  Yep, I know the image is out of focus, but its worth telling you about how hot stars are. Stars have colours! Hard for our naked eye to see, but a ccd sensor can do it so much better. You are looking at the Crux (Southern Cross) constellation, top right and part of the Centaurus constellation on the left. Blue stars are the hottest, white/yellow stars are cooler and red/orange are the coolest. There are some our eyes just cannot detect. Our sun is small and is a white colour, if you happen to be out there looking back. Can you see the dark patch just left and below the Southern Cross. Thats called the Coal Sack. Dense black cloud which light cannot penetrate. The whole band of smaller stars and dust across the top of the image is the Milky Way. The orange behind the trees is fast moving cloud lit by town lights. I froze my butt off taking this pic, hope you enjoy.  No PS tricks here either. |

 reports, 1d 14h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community.

Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces.

I can see why Vincent is in Hungary, perfect weather for his nudity, it was 3 degrees this morning when I went for a swim!
Awesome camera, amateur operator!
Its really hard to focus on a pin dot of light, well impossible. It takes lots of photos to get it right, but it got too cold and cloudy to keep trying. Will freeze my butt off again another night so you can see the Southern Cross more clearly.
You like Mark's album!
I absolutely love the last 3 songs, will take me more time and listens to fully appreciate the rest of it. Love how he has played the guitar more, really good at making it sing.

This one is as far away from Tahiti as you could get!
The water nymphs would have their seal coats on.
Technically its a very poor photo, but it shows up what the eye misses. Interesting stuff up there in the sky.
It looks dark and empty, but its mind boggling how much is really out there and how far away it is.
I have one though that I will dig up and post at some stage of the comet that was in our skies (last year?? year before??) it's name escapes me at the moment - but I was very pleased with what I managed.
The moon and stars have always fascinated me
