Comet 12P/Pons–Brooks on February 24, 2024 (full moon). I have the impression that there was another explosion and the comet showed its horns again. The full moon, clouds and the comet's low position above the horizon did not allow me to take a better photo. But you can still see that something is happening there.

The Leo Triplet - a beautiful, small group of interacting spiral galaxies located in the constellation Leo. The group consists of the galaxies: M 65, M 66, and NGC 3628 (the Hamburger Galaxy).
The distance from Earth is approximately 35 million light years.

In the Northern Hemisphere, spring is the best time to view and photograph these galaxies.

Moon and Venus in the morning sky. March 27, 2022. Unfortunately, Mars and Saturn, which are near Venus, did not want to be in the picture - they hid behind a cloud and a tree :(

Taking advantage of a moment of clear skies in January 2022, I took a picture of the Orion Nebula. It is a huge cloud of gas and dust in which new stars are born.

Mercury replaced Venus in the evening sky. In this photo, Mercury is only 1 degree above the horizon. So the parade of planets now looks like this: Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune, and Uranus. If you have not seen my film with the December Planets Parade, I invite you to watch: https://youtu.be/l6anmKhiwPg

Due to the lack of new pictures of the Comet C/2021 A1 Leonard, let me show you a nice shot of comet with the globular cluster M3 and meteor smoke. This photo was taken while setting up and testing the camera before the actual photo session. Let the clouds go away!

Finally clear sky! Unfortunately, it did not take long, but it was enough to capture Comet C/2021 A1 (Leonard).

The second photo is a single frame (without processing).

Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and the Moon in the evening sky over Gniezno (Poland) on November 11, 2021.
In December 2021, the conjunction of these planets and the Moon will be even more spectacular!
