Sirli kosmos: 2018-in ən yaxşı şəkilləri

Sputnik

Kosmosun ən cazibədar və heyranedici fotolarının illik ümumdünya astrofotoqrafiya müsabiqəsinin təşkilatçıları bu ilin ən möhtəşəm kosmos görüntülərinin şort-listini yayımlayıb. Bura bizdən milyonlarla işıq ili uzaqda olan nəhəng qalaktikaların, onların gecənin bağrını dələn əsrarəngiz obrazlarının evlərin yaxınlığından çəkilmiş təsvirləri daxil edilib.

Insight Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2018 müsabiqəsi hər il 9 kateqoriya üzrə təşkil edilir: səma peyzajı, qütb parıltısı, adamlar və kosmos, bizim günəş, bizim ay, planetlər, kometlər və asteroidlər, ulduzlar və dumanlıqlar, qalaktikalar. Burada ilin gənc astro-fotoqrafı nominasiyası üzrə mükafat da var.

Müsabiqə Avropa Cənub rəsədxanasının dəstəyi ilə Kral Qrinviç rəsədxanası tərəfindən Insight Investment şirkəti və BBC Sky at Night Magazine jurnalı ilə birlikdə keçirilir.

Qalibləri 10 min ingilis funt-sterlinqi məbləğində priz gözləyir. Ən yaxşı şəkillər Londondakı Qrinviç Milli Dəniz muzeyində təşkil olunan illik sərgidə nümayiş etdirilir.

Müsabiqənin şort-listinə daxil edilən yaradıcılıq nümunələrinə Sputnik Azərbaycan-ın fotolentində baxın.

Rusiya ilə ABŞ arasında növbəti mübahisə: Bu dəfə kosmos üstündə

1. Fotoqraf Peter Ward-ın Earth Shine adlandırılan fotosu Insight Investment Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2018 mükafatına layiq görülüb. Burada günəşin qarşısının ay tərəfindən tutulması təsvir edilib. Xüsusi çəkiliş texnikasından istifadə edən fotoqraf təkcə günəş tacını yüksək dəqiqliklə tutmayıb, həm də fotoda ayın bütün detalları aydın görünür.

2. Fotoqraf Jingpeng Liunun Insight Investment Astronomy Photographer of the Year 2018 mükafatının şort-listinə daxil olan Expedition to Infinity fotosu. Cənubi Dakotadakı Badlands Milli Parkından çəkilmiş bizim möhtəşəm qalaktikanın fotosu 6 kadrdan ibarət mənzərə kompozisiyasını özündə əks etdirir.

3. Miguel Angel García Borrella və Lluis Romeronun həmmüəllifi olduğu Mosaic of the Great Orion & Running Man Nebula fotosu. Messier 42, M42 yaxud NGC 1976 adları ilə məşhur olan Orion Dumanlığı. Süd yolunda yerləşən diffuz dumanlığı təqdim edir. Bu, aydın səmada adi gözlə görünə bilən ən parlaq dumanlıqdır.

4. Fotoqraf Nicolas Lefaudeuxun Color-Full Moon əsəri. Ay səthinin inanılmaz rənglərini və detallarını göstərən fenomenal bir şəkil.

The International Space Station (ISS) was captured between two massive sunspots, the AR 12674 and AR 12673, during its solar transit. The image was taken in Madrid and it took ISS less than a second to cross the solar disk. Madrid, Spain, 5 September 2017.

The magical Aurora Borealis explodes from the clouds and looms over the mountains in Stokknes on the south coast of Iceland. Snow has melted and created pools of water between the dunes, creating a perfect foreground for this image. Stokksnes, Iceland, 16 February 2018

The magnificent Milky Way stretches across the night sky reflecting on the Cable Bay near Nelson, New Zealand. The photographer had to take the picture before the light washed out the sky. 42 individual images were stitched in to a large multi row panorama to create this image.

In high resolution planetary photography having a good view of a planet is a key factor but also completely out of a photographer’s control. In this image the photographer was lucky to capture our second largest planet, Saturn, in all its glory. After stacking 4,000 out of 10,000 frames we can admire details such as the beautiful polar hexagon, the Encke Division and even the crepe ring.

A flared up Aurora reflects bright pink and yellow colours on the water at Southern Bays near Christchurch, New Zealand. The incredible combination of the radiant Aurora colours, the wide green fields and the dark blue, starry night sky paint a spectacular picture and accentuates the wonders of our galaxy.

The Eagle Nebula, also known as Messier 16, is a young open cluster of stars, surrounded by hot hydrogen gas in the constellation Serpens and lies at a distance of 7,000 light years from Earth. Taken at the Baerenstein Observatory in Germany, the photo is a RGB-Ha-OIII image and shows off the radiant red and blue colours of the nebula. In the centre you can spot the famous Pillars of Creation.

Taken during a summer night in Mingantu in Inner Mongolia, star trails are sweeping over the colourful and extraordinary sacred altars, called Ovoo, creating a spectacular painting.

Battling the light pollution in Malibu, California the photographer brilliantly framed our galaxy, the Milky Way, inside a sea cave, 25 miles away from the heart of downtown Los Angeles. In order to achieve this outstanding shot planning it ahead and waiting for the perfect conditions of low tide and clear skies was very important. The image required two exposures; one to capture the details of the dark cave and one for the Milky Way. Both exposures were taken back to back without moving the camera or changing the composition.

Andromeda Galaxy has always amazed the photographer. The dust lanes and bright star clusters in its arms, the emblematic galaxy shape of it, and the magnificent look of this great star city make it one of his most desired objects to photograph. This image was taken using a 200mm mirror and creating a three panel mosaic.

From the city of Yaroslavl in Russia to the coast of the Barents Sea in the Arctic Circle, a party of three travelled 2000 kilometers to capture the magnificent Northern Lights. The photographer stayed in the village of Teriberka in the Murmansk Oblast district for five days. After four days of bad weather, with heavy snow and thick clouds the sky finally cleared on the last day and the Northern Lights appeared in all their glory.

A glorious Milky Way looms over a thunderstorm that lights up the Florida sky. The photographer wanted to show the great contrast between stable (Milky Way) and moving (thunderstorm) objects in the sky.

A phenomenal image depicting the incredible colours and details of the surface of the Moon. The photographer applied a similar procedure he used for capturing the solar eclipse and noted that this lit up the full Moon like a Christmas tree ornament, with a great variety of hues and shades.

The Orion Nebula, also known as Messier 42, M42, or NGC 1976, is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way, south of Orion's Belt in the constellation of Orion. It is one of the brightest nebulae and is visible to the naked eye during a clear night sky. M42 is 1270 light years from our planet and is the closest region of massive star formation to Earth. It is estimated to be 24 light years across and it has a mass of about 2,000 times more than that of the Sun. This image is the result of the efforts of two astrophotographers using different equipment from their observatories. Located hundreds of kilometres away from each other, they chose the Orion Sword are as a common target to render. The software suites used in this image are Maxim DL, Pixinsight and Photoshop CC 2017.

The photographer captured the splendor of our galaxy in Badlands National Park, in South Dakota and is a panoramic view of a 6-shot composite, three for the sky and three for the foreground, all of which were taken successively using the same gear and equivalent exposure settings, from the same location, within a short period. The raw files were initially processed in Lightroom for lens correction only, followed by merging to panorama in Photoshop. Final retouching was applied back in Lightroom, including WB correction, basic toning and local adjustments.

During a solar eclipse, the brightness of the solar corona hides the details of the moon. By layering 9 exposures ranging from 2 seconds to 1/2000th of a second and with Extreme High Dynamic Range photography or XHDR the image shows not just the radiant solar corona, but the newest possible of new moons, seen here illuminated by sunlight reflecting off the earth.
