4 hours agoPhotos by @babaktafreshi | This impressive Maya temple in Tikal is called the Great Jaguar, and you can hear the big cat if you spend enough time in this jungle at night. Protected in a national park in Guatemala, jaguars freely roam around the temples after dark, when tourists have departed. When I visited recently with special permission to document the site at night, the tropical sky had cleared after thunderstorms. Taurus (the bull ) and the Pleiades star cluster (also known as the Seven Sisters ) were rising above the 47-meter (154 feet ) pyramid, which dates to 750 A.D. There are both old stories and new studies on the importance of the Pleiades to the Maya (swipe for a closer view ). One myth is that the people of Tikal believed they came from Pleiades, and the seven important pyramids of the Grand Plaza in Tikal represent the pattern of Pleiades. There is no doubt that some Maya pyramids were built to reflect astronomical events, and from atop Tikal’s pyramids, perhaps ancient astronomers tracked the movements of celestial objects, keeping time for rituals and agriculture. The Maya calendar was one of the most advanced of the ancient world, thanks to astronomical observations. When Pleiades rises at sunset and is visible for the entire night in November, that’s when the dry season and harvesting begin. Tikal is one of the largest sites of Maya civilization, and at its peak was home to at least 60,000 Maya.

YesterdayIt’s the peak days of the 2019 Geminid Meteor Shower. This photo is blend of several images over 45 minutes from 2018 when the moon cycle was a bit more conducive, but some good shooting stats can still be seen this year.

2 days agoNGC 7822. ===================================== This was a rough one. A night of errors but a night of lessons also. From high winds to disengaged gears, this one really put me through my paces! The end result is still one I’m willing to post though. It’s not perfect but I salvaged something from what could be a disaster. In other news, my new ASI1600MM and narrowband filters are on their way from @optcorp . Bringing narrowband imaging to one of the heaviest light polluted cities in the world. I must be effing crazy! Please take a few minutes to check out some really amazing astrophotographers that I’ve tagged in the image. And for all my NYC loving peeps, I will be back to posting what you love really soon.

3 days agoRegardless of which country and civilization, when standing under a sea of stars, next to one of these majestic cultural heritages, I feel the same unique sense, a connection to the past and future at the same time. Another take from the recent Guatemala project. The ancient Maya city of Tikal is home to many limestone pyramids that tower up to 70 meters (230 ft ) high. And this is just the tip of a hidden iceberg, located 70 km (42 mi ) north of here, with no access road. It is called El Mirador and keeps many archaeologists busy. Unfortunately its threatened by massive deforestation and looting. Swipe for a closer view of constellation Cygnus, the Swan, with the North America Nebula sitting next to bright star Deneb (visible these nights over the west ). This young blue-white giant star is one of the most luminous in our side of the Galaxy. It could be much brighter in our sky if it was not 2600 light years away. #tikalnationalpark #saveournightsky #guatemala #maya @natgeoimagecollection @twanight

4 days agoPhoto taken by : @babaktafreshi . . . A few nights ago in Los Angeles. I’m on a @natgeo assignment to document the impact of artificial lights and the value of natural nights for human and other species. Appears here is the beautiful Griffith Observatory, home to one of the world’s finest planetariums. But beyond that what you see is the grey star-free sky caused by light pollution. While we need light for urban life, in many cases our environment is overlit and intense bright lights do not help with safety but create very dark shadows and also glares, causing accidents. Light pollution also affects Wildlife, Health, Energy, and Heritage … #saveournightsky #twanight #lightpollution #losangeles @twanight @natgeoimagecollection . . . . tag us for publish your photos: @panartphotos #photo #photography #photographer #frame #photos #pictureoftheday #picture #best_photo #digital_photography #camera #portraits #portrait برای نشر آثار، تصاویر خود را تگ کنید: @panartphotos #عکاسی #عکاس #تاریکخانه #لایت_روم #تصویر_روز #تصویر #عکس_روز #دوربین_عکاسی #عکاسی_دیجیتال #عکاسی_آنالوگ #پرتره

4 days ago#Repost @babaktafreshi ( @get_repost ) ・・・ Recently Canon lent me the new astrophotography camera #EOSRa to test out. On this evening I was at Lake Tekapo, an International Dark Sky Reserve in New Zealand. Using the EOS Ra with the 50mm f1.2 RF lens I set up for a timelapse sequence with the iconic Church of Good Shepard in the foreground. Looking toward the south, in the sky the Southern Cross and Coalsack dark nebula are on the right and Carina Nebula sits above the church, a massive hydrogen cloud in the Galaxy where newborn stars are forming, some 8500 light years away. Compared to a regular camera, the modified IR-cut filter of EOS Ra makes it 4 times more sensitive to these common red glowing nebulae in the sky, by passing more of the red end of the light spectrum to the sensor. #astrophotography #nightscape #laketekapo #saveournightsky #canon

5 days agoDer Planet Venus am Abendhimmel Die Venus ist ab Dezember immer besser zu sehen. Jetzt steht sie nach Sonnenuntergang schon recht hoch über dem westlichen Horizont. Außerdem nimmt ihre Helligkeit enorm zu, sodass sie in der Abenddämmerung leicht mit dem bloßen Auge zu entdecken ist. Den ganzen Winter hindurch bis Mai 2020 begleitet uns der Planet als strahlender Abendstern am Sternenhimmel. Schaut mal hin!

5 days ago. کهکشان آندرومدا بر فراز یادگاری به جا مانده از دوران سوم زمین شناسی (ژوراسیک ) یا همان عصر دایناسورها. جنگل هایی که به دلیل قرار گرفتن بین رشته کوه البرز و دریای خزر و داشتن اقلیم معتدل تر توانست در عصر یخبندان زنده بماند. به همین علت است که جنگل های هیرکانی را مادر جنگل های جوان اروپا و شمال آمریکا می دانند. جنگل های هیرکانی که دانشمندان به آن لقب فسیل زنده دانده اند ، در تابستان امسال در فهرست میراث جهانی یونسکو قرار گرفت. اما متاسفانه خبر رسیده که عده ای سودجو می خواهند در این جنگل تله کابین نصب کنند. با انجام این کار قوانین یونسکو نقض شده و جنگل های هیرکانی از فهرست یونسکو خارج می شود. امیدواریم که مسئولین کشور ایران خردمندانه عمل کنند و اجازه این کار را ندهند. #nojum_magazine #nightsky #galexy_andromeda #nightscape #telescope #astrophotography #astronomy #astrography #star #astronomyphotography #sky_at_night #bbc #Nature #apod #spece #irantravel #science #nightscapades #photography #twanight #skyatnightmagazine #nightphotography #exploration #amazing_longexpo #longexposures_shot #night_excl #skyandtelescope #fantastic_universe #saveournightsky #milkywaypics
