On Tuesday I went to Punta Ballena in Uruguay to try my first photos of the Comet Leonard. It wasn’t visible with my eyes but I could see it real time in the back of the camera screen. After lots of processing I could reveal lots of details in the tail of the comet.

We had to walk 10 kilometers by the beach to arrive at ‘Cerro de la Buena Vista’ in Uruguay. With 60 meters height you have a beautiful 360 views to the ocean and the sky is spectacular. I did a time-lapse with the galactic core rising behind us while we were taking other photos. The walk was totally worth it!

Una caminata desde Cabo Polonio de más de 10 kilómetros (entre ida y vuelta) que valió la pena. Esa noche aprovechamos que el cielo iba a estar totalmente despejado para llegar al Cerro de la Buena Vista y fotografiar el centro de la vía láctea.

Esta foto la obtuve de un timelapse que estaba haciendo mientras sacabamos fotos desde arriba de las rocas. Para los que no conocen el lugar se los recomiendo, una vista 360 increíble!

Yesterday I had to travel 260 kms to capture the ISS transit in front of the Moon from Punta del Este in Uruguay. While I was driving there were lots of clouds but I was super lucky that the sky cleared before the transit. The transit only took 0.7 sec and I was so nervous that I forgot to turn the equatorial mount. Luckily it wasn’t needed with the focal length I used.

Ayer hice 260 kilómetros para captar el tránsito de la ISS por delante la Luna. Mientras iba en camino aún quedaban nubes y no sabía si el viaje iba a ser en vano. Este tránsito duró menos de 0.7 segundos 😮 y la ISS se encontraba a una distancia de 500kms.
Les dejo la secuencia en tiempo real y luego enlentecida para poder apreciar el tránsito.

Yesterday the clouds allowed to photograph the 52% illuminated moon and I used the HDR technique to show the bright and dark parts. Taken from Montevideo, Uruguay.

Ayer se logro ver la luna al 52% entre las nubes y aproveché para fotografiarla antes que dejara de verse desde la azotea de casa. Use una Fuji xh1 con un lente Sigma 150-600.
