The Orion Molecular Cloud Complex in all its glory.

I had a vision for an image like this for a few years but had a lot of learning to do before I could achieve it, the conditions also needed to be perfect. The weather, star alignment, and the location.

This image was shortlisted for the prestigious Royal Museums Greenwich Astronomy Photographer of the Year competition.

An article was published in the “BBC Sky at Night Magazine” alongside an in-depth and technical article I wrote on how this image was created.

Standing under the night sky for long periods of time gets me thinking, thinking about existential questions. Like if there's life out there? How do we comprehend the incomprehensible vastness and scale of the universe? I never have the answers but it's nice knowing I'm capturing photons that have travelled lightyears to reach my camera sensor.

Auction winners in this series can claim an epic quality ready-to-hang HD print, 24 inches on the long edge.
