The Royal Observatory Greenwich in the UK has announced the winners of the Astronomy Photographer of the Year for 2018.
Above are three of my favorites from the overall winners list. From top to bottom are Steven Mohr’s photo of the NGC 3521 galaxy (stitched together using hundreds of exposures), Nicolas Lefaudeux’s photo of an aurora (which he somehow turns into a landscape image), and Lefaudeux’s shot of the 2017 eclipse (you know I’m a sucker for a good eclipse photo).
If you find yourself in London before May, the winning photos are on display at the National Maritime Museum or in book form everywhere.
