Looking through thousands of entries across 67 countries, this shortlist for the 14th edition of the competition already sees some impressive images.

Images like Andrew McCarthy’s 300-megapixel Fire and Fusion image of the Sun, Jason Guenzel’s Edge On image of NGC 891 (located 30 million light-years away), and Yang Sutie’s shot at the world’s highest highway in Tibet are sure to leave astronomers and photographers in awe.
