Honorable Mention
Interstellar cloud
DESCRIPTION
The Lagoon Nebula is an interstellar cloud located 4077 light-years from us. I shot it thanks to a 150/750 Newtonian telescope, after 11h of exposure and accumulating 140 exposures of 300 seconds. AUTHOR
With astrophotography, I aim at bringing the viewer with me on a journey through the cosmos. This practice allows us to distinguish spaces otherwise inaccessible to common people. Growing up in the South of France, I spent my childhood biking in the Alps and wildcampings. This is how I became acquainted with the sky : a mysterious place that becomes fully visible through the photographic process. My passion led me to study engineering and photography at university. I later assisted artists such as Nicolas Henry, who made me discover surrealist photography. Having recently graduated, I am now backpacking in the mountains and taking pictures of nature and the stars.
