National Geographic Hungary features space and wildlife photography

National Geographic Hungary features a collection of diverse photographic subjects, ranging from deep space to terrestrial wildlife.

One highlight is the NGC 7789 open cluster, also known as Caroline’s Rose, located in the Cassiopeia constellation approximately 7,600 to 8,000 light-years from Earth. Discovered by Caroline Herschel in 1783, the cluster is noted for its rose-like appearance. The image was captured using specialized equipment, including a SkyWatcher Quattro telescope and ZWO cameras.

Terrestrial photography includes shots of the Visegrád Mountains in Hungary, specifically the Sikáros-rét forest basin, and observations of natural behaviors such as commensalism among starlings and cattle. The collection also features wildlife from the Masai Mara savanna in Kenya.
