14-22 March 2026 No timelapse, pure live video. No added effects, pure footage. No artificial intelligence, pure nature. And no acceleration, this is in live mode (yes, even the ending!). During the March 2026 Northern Lights Workshop in Sweden, I fully occupied the Nikon Z6III with a seemingly impossible task: To film the beauty of…

On August 11-12-13, 2024, an Aurora Borealis appeared even over the Czech Republic, central Europe. It was a faint but beautiful Aurora Borealis with many waves during the peak of the Perseid Meteor Shower. For this time-lapse, taken from Ústupky (49.82N, 15.65E) in a period between 23:28-2:13 CEST I used Canon 6D and Samyang 14mm.…

Today on Nov. 9, 2023, by noon over central Europe, the Moon covered Venus in broad daylight, bringing the opportunity to capture a very unusual view of daytime Venus “last quarter” also with the Moon.

Yesterday, on Oct. 28th, 2023, the Moon passed through the Earth’s shadow, bringing such a beautiful view to a partial lunar eclipse. Even if only 12 percent of the lunar disc was “floating” in the umbra, any telescope could reveal its dark reddish color. Its edge “touched” the large crater Tycho. I was lucky to…
