Astrophotography is a vast and varied genre, but far too often photographers stop at imaging star trails and the Milky Way. In this contest I want to challenge you to do something different.... Imaging photographing the surface of one of the Solar Systems planets? Or how about vast star clusters, or clouds of dust and gas known as nubula. Huge galaxies await your discovery, the moon, sun (be sure to photograph the sun safely!), aurora, shooting stars, comets - the list is endless.... You don't need a telescope, just a camera, tripod and a lens! I hope you have fun discovering and photographing nature's awesome wonders.
