Astronomija & Fotografija

In fact I have already returned on Sunday, but this week was totally crazy, so I haven’t found the time to write a post here. We had a really wonderful time down there, sea is still warm so we had a lot of fun, despite we had some bad luck regarding weather.

Javor posted some really good all- and half-sky astrophotos on Galaksija.si, it’s worth to see them.

I didn’t take much photos, especially not during the day. Just a few snapshots …

Really bright Zodiacal light the last morning (it was casting clearly visible shadows)

I also managed to capture two Deep-sky objects – NGC 247 and SH2-88:

And a trail of a meteor …
