Photographic views of the night sky

Images of celestial objects taken and processed by astroanderson.com

The approach:

Taking and processing images of celestial objects can be viewed as a blend of technology, science and art: whilst all images (with the exception of three in the Solar System gallery) have been captured by astroanderson.com, some of them have been adjusted artistically with Adobe Photoshop.

The captions of the images indicate when this has been done. 

   The philosophy:

Astrophotography is for all

 

it does not matter:

 

who the astrophotographer is;

 

where the astrophotographer comes from;

 

or in what the astrophotographer believes.  

 

As Diogenes of Oenoanda wrote some two thousand years ago on one of his city walls:

 while the various segments of the earth give different people a different country, the whole compass of this world gives all people a single country, the entire earth, and a single home, the world.  

 

The common call for all is
