A 360-degree panorama during the night. On the left, one smaller dome and four larger ones are visible on the ground. From the right-hand large dome, two yellow lights are emerging from it. In behind the four buildings on the left side is a faint white glow visible. To the right side of the image, another runway is displayed. At the horizon, a green and red glow around can be seen. Over this area, Milky Way is spanned.
"I was completely overwhelmed by the beauty of it all, to the point of forgetting everything around me! A sky of absolute purity, free from artificial light.”
This is how astrophotographer Julien Looten remembers the night he captured this VLT view https://www.eso.org/public/images/potw2602a/

In line with open science principles, the article is freely available. You will also find links to download RTI photographs and interactive models, so you can try out the method yourselves.
I am, of course, happy to answer any questions or engage in discussions about this research!
4/4
This article presents an overview of the various methods used to represent Palaeolithic lithic artefacts, with a particular focus on the contribution of RTI. This technique offers a highly accurate rendering of the micro-reliefs on object surfaces...

I’m delighted to make my first Recommendation for PCI Archaeology @pciarchaeology.bsky.social of Julien Looten @julienlooten.bsky.social and colleagues’ clear method and potential of RTI for lithic illustration
Many thanks for your recommendation and feedback on our article!
It was a real pleasure to benefit from your thoughtful review🙏🏼
Deux magnifiques galaxies prises par l'astrophotographe Julien Looten
Julien Looten est un astrophotographe brillant, ses créations sont à la croisée de l’art et de la science, il sublime la beauté du cosmos avec une poésie visuelle extraordinaire.Voici un exemple de son travail d'astrophotographie M81 la galaxie de Bode à gauche et M82 la galaxie du cigare à droite.
Merci à toutes les deux! Ça me touche beaucoup… à bientôt 📸
