The comet was only about 4º above the horizon at this time. This was about 5:25 am MDT.13998611 - This is a framing of an array of emission nebulas in Cygnus: the bright North America Nebula (NGC 7000) at right,and to the right of it,the Pelican Nebula (IC 5067/8). Those bright nebulas are set amid a complex of fainter nebulosity,notably the Clamshell Nebula at left,as it has become known recently,and catalogued as Sharpless 2-119. At bottom right is the curving Cygnus Arc,aka IC 5068. The small star cluster NGC 7044 is below the Clamshell.13998327 - A 360° panorama of the great equinox aurora of March 23,2023,with the aurora already bright as the sky darkened at twilight.

Earthshine is just visible on the dark side of the Moon,despite the obscuring clouds.13900537 - Cygnus or the Northern Cross is setting amid the pine trees at Athabasca Falls in Jasper National Park, on a late October night. Cepheus is above and the bright star Vega is low and just above the trees. Deneb is at centre, as is the dark nebula Lynds 3, the Funnel Cloud Nebula. Light cloud adds the natural star glows but also discolours the sky near the horizon.13899576 - The galactic core area of the Milky Way over Maskinonge Pond in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta. Jupiter is the bright object at left, with Saturn dimmer to the left (east) of Jupiter. In the summer of 2020 the two planets were close together in the summer sky. Jupiter provides the glitter path on the water. Antares and Scorpius are to the right. Sagittarius is at centre. This was July 13-14, 2020.13899552 - A framing of the major areas of bright and dark nebulosity in Cygnus and Cepheus, showing pink emission nebulas contrasting with dark dusty regions in the Cygnus and into the Perseus arms of the Milky Way.

The reddening (or yellowing) effects of interstellar dust in the spiral arms of the Milky Way is apparent.13899423 - The galactic core area of the Milky Way over Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta with the pairing of giant planets from summer 2020. Jupiter is the bright object at centre, with Saturn dimmer to the left (east) of Jupiter. In 2020 the two planets were close together in the summer sky. Sagittarius is at right. The Prince of Wales Hotel is the bright light source. This was July 13-14, 2020.13898787 - The Northern Lights from at sea when leaving the Lofoten Islands, Norway heading toward the mainlaind, from Stamsund to Bodo, March 3, 2019. This was from the Hurtigruten ship the ms Trollfjord. Orion is setting in the west at left. This is looking northwest. This display was with a Kp Index of only 1 or 2 and was active and bright only briefly around midnight.13898290 - The summer Milky Way over and reflected in the relatively calm water of Pyramid Lake in Jasper National Park, on a mid-October night. The Jasper Sky Tram adds the lights on Whistler Peak. Bands of airglow tint the sky with red. Lights from the Jasper townsite, still mostly unshielded sodium vapour lights as of 2022, add the skyglow at left. Altair is the bright star at top. The red Lagoon Nebula is just setting behind the mountain skyline. The slight wind rippled the water enough to prevent a perfect reflection.13898060 - A collection of bright star clusters and colourful nebulas on the border of Cassiopeia and Cepheus.13897757 - A horizon-to-zenith panorama of the winter consellations on a March evening as they set into the southwest. Orion is at bottom centre, with his Belt pointing down to Canis Major and up to Taurus. Gemini and Auriga are at top, in this case near the zenith overhead. The bright star clusters, M44, the Beehive, (at left) and M45, the Pleiades, (at right) flank the Milky Way. M45 is embedded in the Zodiacal Light. The star clusters M35 in Gemini and M41 in Canis Major are also visible as diffuse spots, as are several other star clusters. A couple of satellite trails are visible.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.13897522 - Sunset colours over White Sands National Monument, New Mexico, December 10, 2013. Venus is at left of centre. This is an HDR (High Dynamic Range) stack of 7 exposures at 2/3 stop increments from -2 to +2 EV, processed first with ACR then with Photomatix Pro. Images taken with the 14mm Rokinon lens at f/4 and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 100. While colour vibrancy has been enhanced the colours to the eye were quite vivid. The HDR technique brings out details in the dark ground while preserving the bright sky.13897451 - Orion Nebula region with NGC1973-7. Stack of two 10-minute exposures + stack of 30s and 1min exposure for retaining bright core deail. Blended with Normal @ 85% but erasing all of short exposure layer except for core.13897397 - The summer Milky Way overhead and through the Summer Triangle stars in July, looking up through trees in Banff National Park at Herbert Lake. Deneb is at top left, Vega at top right, and Altair is at bottom. The bright Cygnus star cloud is obvious.

The bright star Deneb is at upper right. An odd little red nebula is to the right of the Pelican,of unknown identity as it is not in Deep Sky Atlas,Millenium Star Atlas,TriAtlas or SkySafari.13999548 - This is a 180° panorama of the night sky over the hoodoo formations of Bryce Canyon National Park,Utah,at Sunset Point. The panorama extends from the northeast (at left) where the autumn Milky Way is rising,to the southwest (at right) where the summer Milky Way and galactic core in Sagitarius are setting. This was October 11,2023. The most notable feature is the prominent arc of green airglow bands across the eastern sky,a natural sky phenemenon. Perseus is at left in the Milky Way. At top at left is the Andromeda Galaxy,M31. Below it is the blue Triangulum Galaxy,M33. Jupiter is the bright ob13999412 - Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) in the constellation of Taurus on the night of Feb 10,2023.

The comet is the cyan-coloured glow above bright orange Mars.13999102 - On August 24,2023 the waxing gibbous Moon occulted the bright star Antares in Scorpius. This is the scene about 30 minutes after the star reappeared from behind the moving Moon,and so here is a close conjunction. I missed capturing the actual occultation reappearance,though that would have been in a much brighter sky. And the Moon was low in my sky and amid the trees,here purposefully included to capture the scene low in the south,as Antares always is in late summer from my latitude of 51° N. .13998938 - This is a framing of the bright Messier spiral galaxy M101,with a number of its nearby galaxies in Ursa Major. The odd galaxy below M101 ins NGC 5474. NGC 5473,5485 and 5486 are above M101. an edge-on at top centre is NGC 5422,while at the top edge is NGC 5443. The elongated galaxy above the blue star 86 UMa at right is 13th magnitude UGC 8337.13998902 - A panorama of the Northern Lights from home in southern Alberta,over a wheat field in the moonlight. Light is from the waning gibbous Moon at far right,with Jupiter the bright object to the left of the Moon. The Big Dipper is near centre. This was September 1,2023 on a Kp4 night.13998792 - A 360° fish-eye panorama of the great equinox aurora of March 23,2023,with the aurora already bright as the sky darkened at twilight.

Even so, the faint Earthshine is just becoming visible.13900446 - A framing of northern Aquila and the Milky Way near Altair, the bright blue-white star at left. Above is yellowish Tarazed, below is dimmer Alshain. To the right of Tarazed are the dark nebulas Barnard 142 and 143, aka Barnard's E.13900260 - The well-publicized - if not overly publicized! - supermoon (a perigee Full Moon) of November 14, 2016, seen here about 3 degrees above the horizon, rising out of low clouds. The yellow colour is natural, and illuminated the field with a golden glow. However, this is a stack of 4 exposures, from long to short, to create an “HDR” style stack as the longest exposure needed for the clouds blew out the bright Moon. A short exposure was needed for the Moon itself. I took 4 exposures at about 2 stop increments from 1.5 seconds to 1/15 second and blended them not with HDR software but with luminosity13900127 - The summer Milky Way to the southwest over Victoria Glacier and Lake Louise in Banff National Park, Alberta on a moonless night, August 29, 2016. The bright star at top is Altair, with the stars of Aquila being the main constellation here, with the Scutum starcloud just over the glacier and the stars of Ophiuchus to the right. The Serpens-Ophiuchus Double Cluster is prominent here just to the right of the Milky Way.13900092 - An overhead pass of the International Space Station in a bright moonlit sky on the night of May 31/ June 1, 2015, with the gibbous Moon in to the south, below. The view is looking south, with the ISS travelling from right (west) to left (east) over several minutes. This was the second pass of a 4-pass night, May 31/June 1, starting at 12:44 am MDT this morning.13900084 - The region of the summer Milky Way in northern Cygnus containing a rich collection of bright nebulas: the North America Nebula at centre and the Gamma Cygni complex at right, plus the dark nebulas Le Gentil 3, the Funnel Cloud Nebula at upper left, the Northern Coal Sack at centre, and the finger-like B168 at lower left. The bright star at centre is Deneb. M39 is at lower left.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.13899973 - Bright planets Mars (reddish at left) and Jupiter (right, over Bow Glacier) over Bow Lake, in Banff, Alberta, and reflecting in the water in glitter paths on the lake.13899753 - One of the 27 antennas of the Very Large Array (VLA) radio telescope complex in New Mexico (with others in the distance at lower right) illuminated by moonlight, on December 13, 2013, peak night for the Geminid meteor shower.

The Pleiades and Hyades are above centre.13899384 - The Horsehead Nebula, B33, below the Belt of Orion and the star Alnitak, along with the bright Flame Nebula, NGC 2024, to the left of Alnitak. Many other bright reflection nebulas populate the field, such as NGC 2023 just left of the Horsehead itself. The quintuple star system Sigma Orionis is right of the Horsehead. The dark Horsehead is set against the bright streak of the emission nebula IC 434.13899318 - A framing of the group of large binocular-class star clusters in Serpens and Ophiuchus: notably, the pairing of IC 4756 (left) and NGC 6633 (right) at upper left, sometimes known as the S-O Double Cluster, or Tweedledum and Tweedledee (really!), and the cluster IC 4665 at right above the bright star Cebelrai, or Beta Ophiuchi.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.13898926 - A single image of bright noctilucent clouds in the dawn sky over a prairie pond near home in southern Alberta on July 7, 2020, with Venus bright as a “morning star” at right above Aldebaran. Comet NEOWISE was in the scene but hidden behind dark weather clouds here.13898765 - Bright reddish Mars above the Hyades star cluster with yellow Aldebaran below Mars to serve as a "compare and contrast " to Mars.
