Perseus Galaxy Cluster

In a galaxy far far away...amazing, every dim dot in the photo are a galaxy 267 million lightyears away! The Perseus Galaxy Cluster.
How did Earth look like 267 million years ago when the light started its travel to Carpe Noctem Observatory..
90min exposure with a Celestron NexStar11 GPS 2800mm f/10 and Canon 600D modded.

Family stargazing and comet meet nebula

Clear nights at the cabin by the river. A great night with campfire and the starry sky above. The same night comet Jacques met the great nebula IC1396 in the sky, of course far away from each other in space. Also faint Aurora Borealis in the north but a very nice Milkyway in the sky.
