Australian photographer Phil Hart took top honors for his stunning image (below) of the 2023 solar eclipse in Exmouth, Western Australia. Hart’s photo is one of the highest resolution (white light) images of the solar corona ever recorded, and its detail is astonishing. He created the images using multiple telescopes, video frames, and RAW exposures.
“This year’s contest featured some of the most impressive astronomical photography I have ever seen,” said judge Dr. Tanya Hill. “Phil Hart’s images were a masterclass in skill, creativity and dedication, showing faint lunar details alongside the petal-like streams of the solar corona.”
