Stars surround the Moon in the deep twilight sky. The brightest star is 4.4-magnitude Nu Piscium.13900215 - The Andromeda Galaxy (aka Messier 31) and the stars of Andromeda rising over moonlit formations at Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta. Illumination is from the waxing gibbous Moon, low in the southwest so it is providing a warm light. This is an example of a "deepscape" - a nightcape with a telephoto lens to also record a deep-sky object in the frame above the horizon. However, moonlight prevents the galaxy from showing up as well as it would in a dark sky.13900034 - A circumpolar star trail stack taken from the Table Mountain Star Party, July 26, 2014, at the Eden Valley Guest Ranch. This is a stack created from 250 frames taken for a time-lapse movie, stacked using Advanced Stacker Actions with "Elastic Stars" effect. Each frame was 45 seconds at f/2.8 with the Rokinon 14mm lens and Canon 6D at ISO 2000.13898346 - The 1910 Liberty Schoolhouse, a classic pioneer one-room schoolhouse on the Alberta prairie, at sunset as the stars are appearing, and with Venus in the clouds at left. Moonlight from the waxing Moon provides the illumination.13898251 - The Pleiades star cluster and the other stars of Taurus rising above Mount Kerkeslin at Athabasca Falls, in Jasper National Park, Alberta, October 22, 2016. The sky is brightening with the rising waning Moon off frame at left. Some cloud adds star glows and hazy patches to the sky.13897638 - The Milky Way in Sagittarius and Scorpius, low in the south, over Mt. Rundle in Banff, Alberta, from the shore of Two Jack Lake, June 3, 2016. Saturn is the bright object at upper right, then in Ophiuchus just above Scorpius. Some thin cloud fuzzed the images of Saturn and stars. The foreground is partly illuminated by car headlights, to light up the green landscape. Wind made the water rough and unreflective.71437047 - abandoned village of Gruorn with cemetery and church during the Perseids (shooting stars), military training area near Münsingen, biosphere reserve, Swabian Jura, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany, Europe71436799 - India, Udaipur, Radjastan with Place Hotel in Lake Pichola, famous, 5 stars, film location, v.

The Serpens-Ophiuchus Double Cluster is prominent here just to the right of the Milky Way.13900025 - The rising autumn stars and constellations over and reflected in the lake at Police Outpost Provincial Park, in southern Alberta, on September 26, 2016. The stars of Auriga and Taurus are rising, including the Pleiades at upper right. Capella is the bright star above right centre; Aldebaran is below right in the sky. Both are reflected in the still water, along with the Hyades and Pleiades star clusters. A mild aurora is at left.13899464 - Orion and the winter stars and constellations rising in the light of a first quarter Moon on December 3, 2019. The vertical format sweeps up the Milky Way.13899184 - The stars setting into the west over the Columbia Icefields and Athasbasca (left) and Stutfield (right) glaciers, and Snowdome peak. I shot this Sept 6 under very clear skies and a bright waxing gibbous Moon off frame at left. I shot this from the moraine at the upper parking lot.13899040 - A scene at the public "Parks 'n Stars" stargazing night, March 15, 2015, at the City of Rocks State Park, New Mexico, and at their Gene and Elizabeth Simons Observatory in the Orion group campground. Here observers are aiming their laser pointers at the position of Comet Lovejoy in Cassiopeia, just visible at top left. Observers are using the big binoculars to view the comet.13898812 - Comet NEOWISE (C/2020 F3) over the still waters this night of Crawling Lake in southern Alberta. This was early in the evening with the sky still brightly coloured with twilight. The comet was in the southern part of Ursa Major between the pairs of stars called Tania and Talitha. The clouds that were present nicely framed the scene and reflected in the water as well. The comet was too high to be visible as a reflection at this time.13898308 - The stars of Ursa Major, the Great Bear, over the waters of Peyto Lake, Banff, in deep twilight. Arcturus in Böotes, the Bear Driver, is setting over the peak at left. Ursa Major contains the seven stars that make up the Big Dipper, aka the Plough or the Wagon. This was October 13, 2022 on a very clear night in the Rocky Mountains.13897971 - Galaxy and glacier! This is a vertical panorama of the Milky Way Galaxy over Lake Louise and Victoria Glacier in Banff National Park, Alberta. The Summer Triangle stars of Vega, Deneb and Altair are at centre. The Scutum Starcloud is just above and setting over Victoria Glacier. The dark lanes of interstellar dust — stardust! — weave among the bright star clouds of the Milky Way.13897852 - This is the totally eclipsed Moon of November 8, 2022 set in the stars of Aries, with the planet Uranus nearby, visible as the greenish star about three Moon diameters away from the Moon at the 10 o'clock position. Uranus was at oppostion the next night, November 9, at magnitude 5.6.13998597 - The Hoodoos formation near Banff,Alberta,on the Tunnel Mountain Drive,overlooking the Bow River and Mount Rundle,with the stars and Milky Way in the sky. Illumination is by starlight,twilight sky colours,and lights from Banff in the distance. The sky is bright and blue with summer twilight,and from the waxing Moon low in the sky behind Mount Rundle.13900130 - Mars and the Milky Way over the tipis at Two Trees area in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan on August 6, 2018.

The galactic centre is at right; the Summer Triangle stars at left.13898793 - Circumpolar star trails on a moonlit night in the Gila National Forest in southern New Mexico, north of Pinos Altos. Polaris is at upper left, the Little Dipper hanging below it, and the stars of the Big Dipper are rising at right, with the end star of the handle still to clear the horizon. Illumination is from the waxing quarter Moon. The night had a lot of high cloud drifting through, adding the streaks and patchiness to the sky.71437046 - abandoned village of Gruorn with cemetery and church during the Perseids (shooting stars), military training area near Münsingen, biosphere reserve, Swabian Jura, Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany, Europe13999322 - A close passage of Venus by the Pleiades star cluster (M45) on April 9,2023. Venus was closer to the Pleiades the next night,but clouds prevented a shot on April 10. But the night before closest approach was clear enough for long enough to get this shot of the bright planet and stars set in the deep blue twilight.13900261 - The stars of the Big Dipper over the iconic peak of Pyramid Mountain from Pyramid Island, a popular location in Jasper National Park, Alberta, for nightscape and aurora photography. This was on a very clear night in mid-October, 2022, with many aspen stands still in full autumn colour. The images for this scene were shot at moonrise, with the waning gibbous Moon off frame at right lighting the sky blue and landscape with warm alpenglow moonlight. As bonus, a short bright meteor and its orange "smoke" trail appeared on the sky exposures. I shot this during the first weekend of the 2022 Jasper D13900189 - A wide-angle view of the Northern Hemisphere autumn Milky, from Aquila at bottom right in thw south, to Cassiopeia and Perseus at upper left in the northeast.

The rising waning gibbous Moon provides the illumination.13899054 - A panorama of Lake Edith in Jasper National Park, Alberta, on a calm autumn night, looking north to the stars of Ursa Major, the Great Bear, and the Big Dipper in deep twilight. Arcturus is at far left setting in the northwest over Pyramid Mountain, while Capella in Auriga and the stars of Perseus are rising at right in the northeast. This was on a mid-October night when the Big Dipper rides low in the northern sky from this latitude of 53° N.13898512 - A telescopic closeup of Comet Lovejoy (C/2014 Q2) on January 19, 2015. I shot this from near Silver City, New Mexico, using a TMB 92mm apo refractor at f/4.4 and using a Canon 6D at ISO 1600 for a stack of 4 x 5 minute exposures. The ion tail is primarily from a single exposure to minimize blurring from the comet’s motion relative to the stars. The rest of the image is from the stacked combination to minimize noise.13898393 - The 2-day-old crescent Moon with Earthshine, set in the stars and deep blue of twilight, on November 24, 2014. Taken from near Silver City, New Mexico with the TMB 92mm refractor at f/5.5 and Canon 6D at ISO 100. The stars are trailed slightly because the telescope was following the Moon at the lunar tracking rate.13898166 - The 1910 Liberty Schoolhouse, a classic pioneer one-room school, on the Alberta prairie under the stars on a spring night, with an aurora dancing to the north. Moonlight provides the illumination. Cassiopeia is above the school.
