Sky journal

A visual observing journal from a city roof terrace, from filtered sunlight to deep-sky nights under Malmö's urban sky.

A sky revisited

Some targets return across several nights and days. Each finished photograph stays separate so you can compare changing conditions, exposure time, and framing. Historical captures without preserved timestamps remain clearly marked as archive material.
