P's Corner - Spaced Out Sundays

Thank you to ET for allowing me to post today. I thought I'd share with you some beautiful pictures on a topic that has always fascinated me: Astronomy.

This is the Witch Head Nebula, located about 1,000 light years from Earth (Can you see the Witch? Hint: She's looking towards the right):

Living in Northern countries such as Canada allows for the viewing of Auroras. Although I've never been lucky enough to capture one myself, I've managed to find a few spectacular shots I'll share with you today:

That's all folks, see you next Sunday!
