An amateur astronomer has captured a series of incredible photos of stars, planets and far-away nebulas thousands of light years away all from his back garden.
James Flanagan took the outer-space pictures of Jupiter, Mars and a lunar mountain range from his home in Tankerton, Whitstable, using a telescope he says is “middle of the road”.
Mr Flanagan, who used to be a city councillor, also snapped the Orion and Dumbbell nebulas, the second of which is 1,360 light years away.
