Light Pollution
View from Ahornalp towards north into Berner Mittelland. The haze in the sky increases the waste of light and energy into the night sky. The chain of hills on the horizon is the Jura. — EXIF: Nikon D200; Δt=960 s; f=24 mm; f/3.5; ISO 100; 2007-05-19 0:43:40
Telescope Meeting
Trails of stars and astronomers during a telescope meeting on the Ahornalp. The bright wall of the restaurant wasn't that bright in reality.

The sculpture on the left and the roots on the right were lit by a blue LED. — EXIF: Nikon D200; Δt=960 s; f=17 mm; f/4.0; ISO 100; 2007-05-19 2:17:31

Moon

Lunar Eclipse 2007
Interval picture of the lunar eclipse with palm trees in Ascona. The moon is crossing the Earth's shadow. The interval duration is 8 minutes. The lights in the park are illuminating the palm trees with a yellow light. I had to mask the palms on moth of the pictures - otherwise they would be burned out in yellow colour. No light pollution would be better. Then one can flash the palms on one picture and get natural colours. — Nikon D200, AF-S Nikkor 17-35mm, 6s @ f/4, ISO 100, Ascona, 3./4.

Saturn Occultation

Saturn occultation
The end of the Saturn occultation by the Moon. The pictures from the beginning were too bad because the objective lens was decollimated. I had to collimate it during the eclipse. If the rear lens pair is just 1mm out of center then the picture is very unsharp and has color seams. — Nikon D200, William Optics Zenitstar d=105mm f=735mm, 2x Teleconverter, ISO 200, 1/13s, Falera observatory, 22 May 2007 — EXIF: Nikon D200; Δt=1/13 s; f=800 mm; f/7.1; ISO 200; 2007-05-22 21:34:48
