Colour Lover’s Space Photographs

I could look at space photography all day. I haven’t studied astronomy in quite as much depth as my other geeky fascinations, but cosmic eye candy is one of my favorite things.

Colour Lovers recently posted a delicious series of photos.

It’s hard to believe that these images are even real, and these phenomena actually exist in nature at this very moment.

  1. When I was a kid, I used to tell people, “I’m gonna be an astronomer when I grow up.” (The fact that I can’t add put an end to that plan.)

    Pictures like that are why.
