WINTER GAZING

Alone, sitting in the snow and contemplating the dazzling winter night sky. Once again, you'd be a fool to think it's deprived of interesting things to see, even with the naked eye. I love that the region from Sirius to Perseus contains so much red glow, coming from the excited hydrogen gas atoms. Canon 6D Baader modded + Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art, Vixen polarie, Pure night filter
