The beauty of the sky and the grandeur of space through the lens of the best photographers.





The Astronomy Photographer of the Year competition is absolutely incredible. It is dedicated to nature, our world and what lies beyond it. Photographers' lenses capture the northern lights, star trails, sun and moon. To show the beauty of all this and convey it to the average person, you need to be a real professional.

But all the participants in the award are like that. This year, more than four thousand works from different countries entered the competition, and all of them are excellent. Selecting the winner usually takes place in several stages, and the very first step is for the jury to form a shortlist of participants. Winners will then be selected from these images. We show you the works that were included in this list.
