NIGHT OVER ONTARIO

These photos were taken by Lynn Hilborn of Grafton, Ontario.
Pictures have appeared on the cover and inside editions of SkyNews magazine and in Sky & Telescope and Astronomy magazine, and as NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day. A recent magazine article on my photography https://watershedmagazine.com/index.php/shooting-stars

Colourful galaxy and colourful stars- NGC5033 and starry companions. Taken by Lynn Hilborn, April 18 and May 19,2012 and processed June 2013. TEC 140 @f7 and FLI ML8300 camera. LRGB image ( L1x1 14x10m, RGB 2x2 8x5m each)<br />

Magnificent island universe NGC 5033 lies some 40 million light-years away in the well-trained northern constellation Canes Venatici. This telescopic portrait reveals striking details of dust lanes winding near the galaxy's bright core and majestic but relatively faint spiral arms. Speckled with pink star forming regions and massive blue star clusters, the arms span over 100,000 light-years, similar in size to our own spiral Milky Way. A well-studied example of the class of Seyfert active galaxies, NGC 5033 has a core that is very bright and variable. The emission is likely powered by a supermassive black hole. The bright nucleus and rotational center of the galaxy also seem to be slightly offset, suggesting NGC 5033 is the result of an ancient galaxy merger. Text from APOD, Astronomy Photo of the Day.
