A nicely curated and honestly quite inspiring collection, covering the human and the abstract, the technical and the simple. I may need to start tinkering with astrophotography.

Every year, the companies which manufacture cameras and lenses as well as the companies which manufacture the various software that photographers use for processing the photos that they take continue to release new products which continue to become increasingly sophisticated every year.
And as the equipment which is available to photographers throughout the world continues to become increasingly advanced, the imagery that photographers capture continues to become increasingly impressive. The ranges of colors of distant celestial bodies that photographers can capture in the images that they take, as well as the resolution which we see in the final images that they submit to photography competitions is even more spectacular than the astrophotography that we were seeing a mere 10 years ago, back in the 2010's.
if you are interested in astrophotography or astronomy, if you enjoy viewing colors photos of the night sky, star trails, the moon and views of the planets within our solar system, then you will be thoroughly impressed with the "Astronomy Photographer of the Year Collection 12."
