Hubble Space Telescope
This brilliant image of stars, glowing gas, and interstellar dust shows the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1300. Released in 2005, this image is so big that two adjacent pointings of Hubble were necessary to capture the whole thing. Barred spirals differ from normal spiral galaxies in that the arms of the galaxy do not curve all the way into the core, but are connected to the two ends of a straight bar of stars containing the nucleus at its center. We're sharing one outstanding image from each year of Hubble’s mission to celebrate its upcoming 35th birthday – counting down to a new series of anniversary images! Stay tuned for more, and get caught up at the link in our bio! Image description: A galaxy spreads across the image, with a wide central bar of stars shining in hazy beige. Spiral arms glowing with white-blue stars and dark brown dust surround it. Image credit: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA); Acknowledgment: P.

Mads Peter Iversen Photography
One photo from a landscape photography travel destination followed by one photo from Denmark my home country. Once it clicked and I figured I could probably get something along the same lines as what I’ve captured out there in world, whether it’s the same conditions, same subject, same technique or same composition, it became soooo much more fun to shoot at home. It really did change my photography forever! No we still don’t have mountains, epic waterfalls, cracking glaciers, puffins, whales and big deserts, but we have so many other things. Check out my latest video on YouTube where I teach you to photograph locally. AND if you want to dig even further into local landscape photography be sure to get me and @nigel.danson course on Mastering Local Landscape Photography.In this 4+ hour and 13 video course we’ll be teaching you how to find great locations, how to use them optimally, what strategies to use to optimise your chance of getting great photos, what to do on location, how to compose, edit and print what you capture, what apps to use and much more! This ENTIRE course can be yours for only $99! Check it out via the link in my bio 🤓
