Hi Ko. Its difficult to realise that these photos have been taken by an amateur photographer and so I have to lift you far higher! In fact this way of portraying the night skies is very similar to what I see in my 'A Field Guide to the Stars & Planets' by Donald Menzel. Now and again I too see many stars but rarely as many as this so to see your stars in a negative fashion gives me ideas for my own. Your close ups showing the individual galaxies and titled too is a sheer blessing.

My congratulations on such documentary evidence. ⭐ -- of course :)

Keep safe. Herb

Thank you Herb for the nice compliment. Great that you enjoy mij pictures of the nightsky. As a matter of fact, an amateur like me can make pictures nowadays competing the professional ones in the 1950 th. Digital camera's and tracking equipment is all you need
