No DSLR? No Tripod? No problem! You can still shoot Milky Way handheld with P30 Pro 😛

Happy Lunar New Year to you!!!
Shot with GoPro Hero 4 Black handheld.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year!!!
It's been awhile since I last posted here. Many things have happened! JNP is now a licensed travel agency in Singapore and I will be launching our hotel booking portal in 1 Jan 2016! So I haven't been shooting much this year and I do feel a little rusty when I process this HaRGB image of NGC2264 (Cone Nebula), which took me a total of 7 hours to image it on different occasions. If you rotate the image 90° to the right, it will look like a Christmas tree. Wishing all of you a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year of 2016!!! Thank you for your continued support.
A sporadic meteor streaked across the aurora lit sky in Alaksa.
Just led my first full moon astrophotography expedition to Mount Bromo, one of the active volcanoes in East Java, Indonesia.
The Moon and Saturn made a close approach on 6 May, passing just within 2° of each other, at around 35° above horizon at 5.30am (GMT +7) on a cold night where Eta Aquarid meteor shower peaked. The large and bright waning gibbous moon managed to obscure both the Eta Aquarid meteor shower and the spectacular Milky Way with its illumination at 97%. Although I was able to see a few faint Eta Aquarid meteors on that night, I was unable to see the Milky Way with my naked eye because the bright Moon was located at approximately 20° from the Milky Way's Galactic Center!
Nonetheless, it's still possible to unveil the Milky Way against a large and bright moon! Read more at http://bit.ly/1jeJJ4M and give it a try.

It's been an amazing experience to have shared my astrophotography journey with more than 300 enthusiasts last night at City of Dreams Manila! Thank you everyone for supporting my first talk of the year and thank you DPP for the interview and feature! I hope to see you again soon!
MANILA: Just one week left to my first astrophotography talk in Manila at City of Dreams, Nobu Hotel on 22 Apr from 8pm to 10pm. Join me and other astrophotography enthusiasts to find out how you can also unveil the Milky Way galaxy at locations where people don't look up.

Ushering in the new year with my first selfie taken in Alaska!
Wrapping up 2014 with my last astronomy image of the year, taken on 29 Dec, of Comet Lovejoy (C/2014 Q2). This potentially dazzling comet is amazing because it’s currently visible to the naked eye at very dark places and it can be captured with just a DSLR and a tripod, even in Singapore! It will be closest to Earth on 7 Jan 2015 and doesn’t reach perihelion until 30 Jan 2015. If you miss this chance, you will have to wait until approximately 8,000 years later to see it again :P Find out more at http://bit.ly/1x3i4uY

My billion star hotel stay above Arctic Circle in Alaska! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Took this shot of the Beijing National Stadium, also known as the bird’s nest, yesterday at around -6 degrees Celsius! Most part of the lake is frozen and I settled for this unpopular vantage point because besides the bird’s nest, I also spotted a “fish” here. Can you see it?
Took a selfie while I was time-lapsing this amazing sight with my second camera in Alaska! Big Dipper, Capella and M45 are also visible in this image.
