Astrophotography by Panagiotis Andreou

Our closest neighbour, the magnificent Andromeda Galaxy as photographed from my garden using LRGB filters for 7.5 hours.

This is Orion Nebula with less an hour of data I captured in two early March nights.

The North American & Pelican nebulae separated by a dark cloud, 1,500 light years away.

All Andromeda's distant 2,5 million years away photons were collected under the truly dark skies of Exmoor using a reduced fast astrograph FSQ-85ED and a Nikon D810A for 6 hours.

Interstellar dust clouds and the cosmic cocoon, located 3,300 light years away where a newly developed cluster of stars live inside it.

Young and bright stars that currently pass through interstellar cosmic dust. It will take them several tens of thousands of years to move past this dust.

Cygnus was full of stars, like glowing diamonds in a black dessert. I couldn't resist and I turned my camera to Deneb and Sadr and took one single photograph.

A large expanding cloud of hot dust and gas born of the death explosion of a massive star in the constellation of Cygnus.

5,000 light years away from Earth, an open cluster of young and bright suns excite nearby atoms to produce this flowery nebula, the Rosette Nebula.

The dark space horse and the star-forming flame in the Orion Complex, home to protoplanets and young and bright stars 1,400 light years away.
