Jupiter and Venus Conjunction on March 3rd, 2023
437 photos each of a 10 second exposure all stacked together with no alignment.
20 minutes of star trails approximately centered on constellation Auriga.
While I did set my alarm, I unfortunately fell back asleep and woke up 45 minutes too late. But as a consolation for my laziness it was cloudy, not ideal conditions.
August's Sturgeon Moon
Been a while but when I drove home tonight and spotted the Moon I just had to pull out the telescope and take some pictures.
Yesterday many said it was written in the sky that the Montreal Canadiens would eliminate the Vegas Golden Knights and secure their spot in the Stanley Cup Final. Game 6 was in Montreal, on "la Saint-Jean Baptiste" and a full moon was in raising into the sky.
Saw a few posts with objects in the foreground of the full moon, so decided to give it a try with the tree in my front yard.
