Description

Here is the Flaming Star and Tadpoles Nebulae in Auriga. I photographed them (again) from the Red Sea's light- and aerosol-polluted shores. It seems that I can work better in the bad seeing conditions (and high temperatures) there than waiting centuries for a glimpse of clear skies in northern Germany.  In the next months, I hope to get a chance to go to the desert with my gear, where the air is clearer, and light pollution is less.
