I shot this wonderful waterscape a couple weeks ago. I had never seen such a beautiful Milky Way in this area, I knew I had to take my camera out. The moon was the only light available and it produced an amazing effect of the lake.

Lake William is Located in Quebec, Canada.

It is one of the radio telescopes that make up the Jodrell Bank MERLIN (Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network) radio telescope array and is located in the village of Knockin (Shropshire UK).

This composite image combines a near-infrared view from the Hubble Space Telescope, an infrared view from the Spitzer Space Telescope, and an X-ray view from the Chandra X-ray Observatory into one multi-wavelength picture.

It features the spectacle of stellar evolution: from vibrant regions of star birth, to young hot stars, to old cool stars, to seething remnants of stellar death called black holes. This activity occurs against a fiery backdrop in the crowded, hostile environment of the galaxy's core, the center of which is dominated by a supermassive black hole nearly four million times more massive than our Sun. Permeating the region is a diffuse blue haze of X-ray light from gas that has been heated to millions of degrees by outflows from the supermassive black hole as well as by winds from massive stars and by stellar explosions. Infrared light reveals more than a hundred thousand stars along with glowing dust clouds that create complex structures including compact globules, long filaments, and finger-like "pillars of creation," where newborn stars are just beginning to break out of their dark, dusty cocoons.

Taken near Bad Hindelang, Bavaria, Germany from the peak of the Hirschberg. It was incredible to see this scenery from there. I hiked up there at about 6 p.m. and stood for about 3 hours. Stitched together from four photographs of the landscape and four of the sky because the lightning conditions were to different. I hope you like it!

I intended to go out and shoot the Perseids but it is actually very hard to take pictures of a meteor shower. But it was still very impressive to just lie there and look up to the sky. I'm pretty happy with how this picture came out.

Its a stormy place on this upper atmosphere planets cape!

Taken in Joshua Tree National Park during last month's new moon. Visible with the naked-eye, the Milky Way can be seen stretching far overhead. Cheers.

Part of a dual monitor set I'll be uploading later. This is the first half. The original resolution is 30,400 x 9,500. Yep, you didn't misread that :).
