Blame It On The Moonlight

nightscapades posted a photo:

Despite the yellowed horizon and the colourfully bright sky here in my photo, you can still see the wisps of dark gas and the dust lanes that characterise the galactic core region of our home galaxy, the Milky Way. I can understand why you probably think the brightness of the background is due to the Sun's light because this does look like a post-sunset scene.

However, the time was 4:58 am when I captured this scene at Tuross Lake, Australia, eleven mornings ago, making it a mere eight minutes since the Moon had set for the day. Glowing at 93% illumination, and only two days from being full, there was still lots of the Moon's light on display for my camera to capture, giving the image a near-daylight look. Yes, you can blame it on the moonlight, it seems.

Less than fifteen minutes later the moonlight was gone, too, and the sky had darkened enough for me to shoot some of my usual Milky Way core scenes, but only for around half an hour, after which the real twilight would begin.

As with most of my favourite shots from this wintry morning session, I captured this scene with my Canon EOS 6D Mk II camera, through a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art lens @ f/2.2, using an exposure time of 10 seconds @ ISO 1600.

Neowise Comet

little_stephy0925 posted a photo:

I heard that there is a comet gliding over Earth; I decided to test my luck and see if I could see it. I took a gamble and it paid off. I arrived to Jericho Beach around 10:15pm and the sky wasn't even completely dark yet.

But the Neowise comet was already vision from my naked eyes. I quickly setup my tripod and took a snap before the sky gone completely dark. My friends came along and we had a good time taking photos and chatting at the same time. I slept only 1.5 hours before starting my work but I was very happy and didn't feel tired at all :)

Location: Jericho Beach, Canada (Vancouver)
