A bunch of photos from last week

Over the past week I’ve shot several photos that I didn’t consider cool enough to devote an entire post to. So I saved them up to post them in a single gallery.

Yes, I did just post 2 other photos, but I’m talking terrestrial photos now. Photos without space stuff in them. With plants, fish, insects, chalkboards, water droplets… Enjoy! 🙂

Which Saturn processed astrophoto is best?

As there hasn’t been much night sky visible due to clouds, I processed the Saturn image I took recently in a few different ways. Thing is… I’m not sure what image I like best and as the differences are very sublte I find it hard to decide. So I let you decide which is best and use that processing technique next time.
