Photos from The Observatory

[Princess Mipha]

I bought my fiancé one of those telescopes for kids some time ago.. once I had the idea of taking a photo through the lense..
that's the result (it looks so much more clear throught just the telescope, but happy still about my photo!)

I have the good fortune to live in a truly beautiful part of the earth! Sea and sky make for some awesome ‘eye candy’ scenery … here are a few:

I'm in Florida, and it honestly is "the sunshine state." This is a sunrise during a deep sea fishing trip

Some photos of the moon I took during an eclipse.

oh i am so jealous of people who can take beautiful pictures of the sky... I don't think I've seen the moon or any stars in months now! because i dont go outside at night Lol

I don't have any pictures of the sky on me at the moment, but I DO have a picture of something used to view the sky... in great detail!

Behold, my Orion telescope! I've had this baby for years, ever since I was a kid, and it's still in good condition (have taken exceptional care of it). I plan on using it again this fall once it gets a little less hot.

That's no small piece of equipment! Nice, I would love to have one of these.

Amazing photos everyone!
I think I have a few, but I'll need to dig into my photos for them.
I'll post some later today if I have any.

here are a few pics that I've taken with just my phone:

All right, so this photo is from March 2018 in CA. What is that in the sky? It has been bugging me ever since that day. The photo makes the sky look lighter than it actually was.

It might be a noctilucent cloud! I saw some back in 2019 and was wondering what it was until I stumbled across a wikipedia page on it this year. This one is even more pronounced than the ones I saw, it’s like a magical trail of fairy dust^^

Here is a gorgeous orange-pink beam my boyfriend and I saw yesterday! (Edit: it’s called a sun pillar!)

Also, I’m planning on posting more sky pics when I have access to them, so stay tuned!

Oh-em-gee, such gorgeous photos! I'm going to dig my albums for something too!

I really do have an obsession with the sky, idk whether it’s cause I believe people I love are up there or just because it’s so beautiful

i couldn't get my phone to focus for the life of me, heck. but last night was the supermoon! it was insanely bright. and orange.
looks bad in my photos hehe

Here's a screenshot I took from the universe simulator program "Space Engine." It's a picture of the galactic plane over the mountains of an alien planet!

Shy moon over the stream in the woods where I ride my bike.

I took these on the summit of Haleakala on Maui back in 2018 c:
The first photo looks like I'm on a totally different planet if it weren't for the roads

Canadian peatland with a tiny moon. Sometimes I see deer there.

Last year, my boyfriend and I got to witness Mammatus clouds! I had been wanting to see them for many years and we weren't even trying to find them, lol!

Spoiler: After a severe storm...

There was also a humongous double rainbow!

Another moon hidden behind the leaves
