Hi guys! I decided id put up some photos that ive never put up anywhere as they arent astronomy and im not a part of any photoggraphy forum before this!




This illustrates earthshine and venus quite nicely with the beautiful backdrop of salthill!


A fantastic sky with venus up high!


And a sepia moon!


My fireplace


FIRE!!! Shocked


Ive loads more but i wanna stagger it! Looking at too many images can detract from each other!

There's some very interesting work there Matthew - I like the Orion flypast and the Fire - monochrome works well there.

I think you're right - more than half a dozen in one go is too much to take in on a forum post.

Keep up the good work and keep 'em coming!

A nice selection of images Matthew. The one with Orion gets the trump card  Smiley. Also like the fire shots.

Thanks guys! Cheesy The orion shot was great fun! Myself and trevor durity were out in THE STICKS! But there was a steady stream of cars for some reason! Hence the lights! But i just had to laugh it off and say 'what the hey' it might add to the photo!
