$This is the waxing gibbous Moon (11.7 days old) near reddish Mars (above the Moon),and with reddish Aldebaran and the Hyades star cluster below. All are set in a swirl of clouds,looking like they are in an interstellar nebula. Diffraction from ice crystals in the clouds adds the colourful corona around the Moon. This was the Moon-Mars conjunction of January 3,2023. Mars was then about a month past opposition.$

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.

Mars amid the Beehive star cluster,Messier 44,in Cancer,on June 2,2023. The stars Asellus Borealis and Asesllus Australis are above and below Mars. The sky was still blue with summer twilight at my northern latitude,while light cloud covered much of the sky,adding the gradients and banding.

The aurora of March 23,2023,caught early in the evening when there was a green arc to the south as the sky darkened that exhibited a "dunes" type of structure,with horizontal banding rather than vertical rays or curtains. Above is a purple arct that has some characteristics of a STEVE arc but is likely a standard vertical curtain. At right are Venus and the crescent Moon below,above the glow of twilight. Orion is left of centre,with Sirius embedded in the dunes arc. This is looking southwest to west. The time was about 9 pm MDT.

This is a rich region in the Milky Way in northern Sagittarius. with four Messier objects: The Small Sagittarius Starcloud,aka Messier 24,is at right of centre,flanked by: the pink Messier 17,the Swan or Omega Nebula,above; and the star cluster Messier 25 at lower left. Above M25 at upper left is the star cluster NGC 6645. Below M17 is the small star cluster Messier 18. The small but rich star cluster embedded in the Starcloud is NGC 6603. The nebulosity at bottom is IC 1283,a red emission nebula; and NGC 6589/90 and NGC 6595,both blue reflection nebulas. The dark nebula on the west (right) si
