The Sun at just 1° altitude above horizon, appearing visibly "squished" by the effect of atmospheric refraction. Photographed from the top of La Palma (Canary Islands) in exceptional seeing conditions. #astronomy #astrophotography

Lobster Nebula (NGC 6357) located in Scorpius. Chracterized by its intense color, it's easy to photograph and difficult to observe visually, because human eyes have trouble seeing deep red hydrogen emission in low-light conditions. #astronomy #astrophotography
