Thousands of both Vodou and Catholic followers gathered under the Saut d'Eau waterfall in Haiti. The pilgrimage, made by Voodou practitioners and Catholics alike, originated with the sighting of the likeness of the Virgin Mary on a palm leaf close to the falls half a century ago. Catholism and Voodou practices are forever intertwined in its Haitian form. The appearance of a rainbow beneath the falls is said indicate that Danbala - the great lord of the waterfall - and Ayida Wedo - the rainbow - are making lo14366529 - The Treasury, Al Khazneh, at night lit by candles, Petra, Jordan.14354438 - Rome, Italy, July 22 2017, In Trastevere, Rome, a couple embraces on a cobbled street under the night sky, surrounded by charming architecture and parked cars.14301325 - A girl enjoys a quiet moment by the harbor, gazing at the water and city lights as night falls in Barcelona.71474766 - Malioboro Street by night, major shopping street in Yogyakarta, Java island, Indonesia, Southeast Asia71465513 - Government House on Republic Square by night, Yerevan, Armenia, Eurasia14275562 - Scenic view of a starry night sky over a wooden boardwalk surrounded by lush dunes in Isla Canela, Ayamonte, Spain.14130384 - People on Times Square by night, NYC.

Sirius and Canopus are the first and second brightest stars in the night sky, respectively. The major feature here is the massive Gum Nebula, perhaps a remnant from a nearby (1500 light years away) but ancient supernova. Or it might be a more normal emission nebula created as part of star formation and stellar winds. Its 36º-wide extent sprawls across Puppis (just below Canis Major) and Vela (to the left of Canopus). It was discovered by Australian astronomer 14127962 - Bike parked by burger restaurant at night, Rovaniemi71474765 - Malioboro Street by night, major shopping street in Yogyakarta, Java island, Indonesia, Southeast Asia71467955 - young people at Riva Promenade by night, Split, Croatia, Southeast Europe71467809 - Peristyle of Diocletian's Palace by night, Split, Croatia, Southeast Europe71459821 - Cruise ship World Odyssey, which is used by the university association Semester at Sea as a floating campus, moored at the pier at night (former ZDF dream ship MS Deutschland), Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam, Asia 14353317 - A stunning view of La Giralda in Seville, Spain, shining brightly against the night sky, framed by bare winter trees.

The comet was 2° south of Mars this night. Mars was embedded in some of the dark obscuring dust clouds in Taurus,creating the dark patchy appearance to the background sky. The comet's coma glows cyan due to emission from diatomic carbon molecules,a common trait of comets. The dust tail and faint ion tail are just visible.13899941 - This is the Milky Way of the autumn season in the Northern Hemisphere, on a late September night, from the very dark site of Red Rock Canyon, in Waterton Lakes National Park, Canada. The scene is a crop from the full 360° rectangular panorama, taken about 11:00 pm. Illumination is solely by starlight. Being autumn, the larches and aspens are in autumn colours. Snow is on Mount Blakiston at left, while the sharp peak at centre is Anderson Peak.13899773 - People gaze skywards at the public stargazing session, Milky Way Night, at the Rothney Astrophysical Observatory, operated by the University of Galgary. Roland conducts the laser star tour. This was August 30, 2014. Exposure was 13 - 20 seconds at f/3.2 with the 15mm lens and Canon 6D at ISO 4000.13898868 - The Flatiron building and the MLIT by night from the Empire State Building, NYC, USA13898833 - The Milky Way arching over Emerald Lake and Emerald Lake Lodge in Yoho National Park, BC. This was on June 6, 2016 and despite it being about 1:30 am, the sky, especially to the north at left, is still lit by blue twilight from the short solstice night.13898681 - Belt of Orion with Horsehead and Flame Nebulas. Taken Jan 19, 09 with 77mm f/4 Borg astrograph lens (300mm focal length) and Canon 20Da camera at ISO 400 for 4 x 18 minute exposures. On AP Mach 1 mount.

This was the second Full Moon of the month (making it a "blue Moon" by popular definition) and it was the closest Full Moon of 2023 (making it also a "super Moon" by another popular definition).13981083 - UK,England,East Sussex,Bonfire night,Lewes,Silhouettes of monks from Southover Bonfire Society lit by red flares on United Grand Procession down High Street13899976 - The Flatiron building and the MLIT by night from the Empire State Building, NYC, USA13899753 - 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. A single exposure of 30 seconds with the Rokinon 14mm lens at f/2.8 and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 800. Orion is rising a lower centre. The Moon is the bright object at upper right. The Pleiades and Hyades are above centre.13899340 - The Flatiron building and the MLIT by night from the Empire State Building, NYC, USA13898130 - This is a blend of exposures showing all the satellites (and a few aircraft) recorded by the camera on a late spring night (June 1-2, 2022) from latitude 51° North, from where and when satellites are illuminated all night long and can be seen all through the short night. This is looking almost due south.13886745 - Japanese Pagoda At Night Illuminated By Floodlights; Koyasan Wakayama Japan13878470 - People Dressed As Monks Carrying Southover Bonfire Society Banner And Burning Crosses Lit From Behind By Red Flare On Bonfire Night, Lewes, East Sussex, Uk13833949 - Antic quiosk bandstand Templete of Jardines de Pereda gardens and Santander bank buildng in Santander city by night, Cantabrian Sea, Cantabria, Spain, Europe71427038 - The Baptistery of St. Galgano in Chiusdino by night, Province of Siena, Tuscany, Italy13998900 - The northern sky over the Hoodoos badlands formations in the Red Deer River valley near Drumheller,Alberta,on a night with some aurora tinting the sky yellow and magenta,with a touch of blue. The foreground is lit partly by a yardlight nearby and car headlights. The Big Dipper is at left; Polaris and the Little Dipper are above centre; the W of Cassiopeia is at upper right.13998433 - This was the nearly Full Moon on August 29,2023,on the night before the official "Super Blue Full Moon" of August 30. I shot it here when it was still low in the sky and yellowed by smoke and dust,and set in the deep blue twilight sky.13900496 - An arc of modest aurora borealis (Northern Lights) across the northern horizon, above a prairie meadow in the light of a bright waxing gibbous Moon, a day before Full. This was just after midnight on July 11/12, 2022 when the sky was also still lit by summer twilight colours, and with a weak display of noctilucent clouds also visible low in the northwest at left. The auroral curtains exhibit the usual green band and rays, but also upper altitude reds and purples and a faint blue tint at the very tops where the aurora is lit by the Sun. The aurora was never bright this night (Kp Index was 3 or 13899985 - The Milky Way over Athabasca Glacier and the Columbia Icefields in Jasper National Park, Sept 14, 2014 on a very clear night before moonrise. The centre of the Galaxy area in Sagittarius is setting in the southwest behind the Icefields. The foreground light on the moraines is wash from lights on the Glacier View Inn and Icefields Centre. Other ground illumination on the peaks is from starlight though the tops of the peaks are just being lit by light from the rising waning Moon which is also beginning to light the sky a deep blue. Mt. Andromeda is at left. The Summer Triangle stars are at centr13899377 - Orion rising behind the iconic Hoodoos on Highway 10 east of Drumheller, Alberta, near East Coulee, on a moonless January night, with illumination by starlight and by a nearby yardlight providing some shadows and warmer illumination. Clouds are beginning to move in and are providing the natural star glows.13898737 - A selfie observing Comet NEOWISE (C/2020 F3) with binoculars on the dark moonless night of July 14/15, 2020 from Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta. A faint aurora colours the sky green and magenta. The faint blue ion tail of the comet is visible in addition to its brighter dust tail. The ground is illuminated by starlight and aurora light only.13897842 - The summer Milky Way over the sandstone formations at Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park in southern Alberta, on a dark of the Moon night, July 31, 2016. The foreground is iluminated only by starlight. No artificial light painting was employed here. The Lagoon Nebula and objects in Sagittarius and Scutum are to the south here at centre.13889962 - Night Shot Of Building Lit By Colourful Lights And Reflecting In Pond; Calgary, Alberta, Canada13845874 - Hoi An Streets at Night, Vietnam. Many of the streets are decorated by chinese lanterns at night.13821211 - During a "blackwater" night dive (diving at night in the open ocean with the support of high-powered light sources to attract pelagic creatures), an argonauta cephalopod (Argonauta argo) lets itself be carried away by a jellyfish, and as it approaches the water surface, it reflects itself like in a mirror.13999322 - 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.13998989 - Auroral curtains in the evening twilight on March 23,2023 during the great equinox show that night. This is looking west toward the sunset glow and with the Moon and Venus above the clouds lit yellow by light pollution from Calgary to the west from my location.13998498 - The "Super Blue Moon" of August 30,2023 rising over a yet-to-be-harvested wheatfield in southern Alberta,on the night of August 30,2023. This was the second Full Moon of the month (making it a "blue Moon" by popular definition) and it was the closest Full Moon of 2023 (making it also a "super Moon" by another popular definition).13900512 - A panorama of the Kp5-level aurora on May 27, 2022, from home, with the aurora displaying prominent magenta rays, created by the red oxygen emission blending with illumination from blue scattered sunlight at high altitudes, common around the summer solstice when the high atmosphere is lit all night long. As a bonus, a dim STEVE arc is forming at far right, to the south of the main auroral oval where STEVE normally appears. STEVE faded, then returned to become more strong and visible across the sky from east to west as the main aurora to the north faded.13899519 - This is a stack of images demonstrating the number of satellites passing through the field of a wide-field telescope over a little more an hour. The field frames the Coma Berenices star cluster. This is from my home at 51° North, a latitude more prone to seeing satellites lit by the Sun well into the evening, if not all night closer to summer solstice. Most trails are north-south so they are likely NOT Starlink satellites but polar orbiting satellites. Interesting that the trails have different colours, likely from their solar panels or other structures reflecting blue and gold tints.13899230 - ull Moon setting over Rocky Mountains, taken from Rothney Astrophysical Observatory on August 28, 2007, night of total eclipse of the Moon. Umbral eclipse was over by moonset though the Moon was still in penumbral eclipse. Taken with Canon 20Da camera and 135mm lens at ISO800 and f/4.5 for 1/160 sec. Moon in blue of Earth's shadow on atmosphere.13833950 - Antic quiosk bandstand Templete of Jardines de Pereda gardens and Santander bank buildng in Santander city by night, Cantabrian Sea, Cantabria, Spain, Europe13829491 - A common toad - Bufo Bufo - shot underwater in a grassy ditch at night.

This is a single exposure illuminated by moonlight, of 60 seconds at f/2.8 and ISO 500 with the 24mm lens and Canon 6D. I shot this April 4, 2015 on a partly cloudy night, with the nearly Full Moon rising in the east.13898804 - The rising "supermoon" of July 12, 2022 embedded in the blue arc of Earth's shadow, rimmed by the pink Belt of Venus band of twilight colours, all over the badlands formations of Dinosaur Provincial Park on the Red Deer River in Alberta, Canada. The blue band on the horizon is the shadow of the Earth cast onto the atmosphere opposite the sunset point. The pink Belt of Venus above the shadow is from red sunlight still illuminating the upper atmosphere, an effect that lasts only a few minutes at sunset or sunrise, and requires a very clear sky to show up, as it was this night.13898108 - The appearance of the infamous STEVE glowing arc south of the main auroral curtains, on May 27-28, 2022 from home in southern Alberta. This was early on about 11:53 pm MDT as STEVE appeared in his classic mauve colour in the east. STEVE = Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement, created by hot gas flowing east to west south of the main aurora during an active display. It was Kp5 this night. The main aurora has some subtle blue rays within it at left.13878499 - Drumming Band In Circle Lit By Red Flare In Front Of The Pub, Barcombe Bonfire Night, East Sussex, Uk13795733 - Night view of Pudong skyline dominated by Oriental Pearl TV Tower, Shanghai, China71444695 - Karl Marx monument by Soviet sculptor Lew Kerbel (1971) in Chemnitz city center at night, Saxony, Germany71440843 - 'Natural Fireworks', Erupting Volcano Fuego by Night No.2, Acatenango, Guatemala71431306 - Canal Grande by night.

The Big Dipper and Ursa Major are at upper centre. Leo is rising at right. The landscape is lit by the waxing quarter Moon.13899645 - Jupiter (brightest), Saturn (to the left), and the Milky Way over the Saskatchewan River and the area of Howse Pass, on July 26, 2020. Mount Cephren is at left; the scene is framed to include Cephren. The nebulas and star clouds of the galactic centre area at right show up well on this very clear night. The bright Small Sagittarius Starcloud, aka M24, is most obvious, flanked by the star clusters M23 and M25 to the side, and the nebulas M17 and M16 above, and M8 and M20 below. The fuzzy globular cluster M22 is to the left of the large Lagoon Nebula, M8. Green airglow tints the sky.13899168 - A scene looking west on January 16, 2015 but with a field stretching up to and beyond the zenith overhead, taking in the Zodiacal Light stretching up to the Pleiades at upper left. Just below the Pleiades is green Comet Lovejoy, with its faint ion tail pointing away from the Sun along the same plane as the Zodiacal Light, as it should. Ion tails always point directly away from the Sun, as they are blown out by the solar wind. Comet Lovejoy was crossing the ecliptic this night, as it heads north in its orbit traveling almost perpendicular to the ecliptic plane.13898902 - The Milky Way over the old corral at the site of the 76 Ranch in the Frenchman Valley in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan. I shot this Aug 26 on a perfect night, with aurora beginning to kick up but still low in brightness when I shot this so the sky was dark. The foreground is lit by starlight, by the aurora brightening in the north, and by the occasional flashes of spotlights from naturalists down the valley spotting for nocturnal ferrets. The green bands in the sky are from natural airglow.13898526 - The rising "supermoon" of July 12, 2022 embedded in the blue arc of Earth's shadow, rimmed by the pink Belt of Venus band of twilight colours, all over the badlands formations of Dinosaur Provincial Park on the Red Deer River in Alberta, Canada. The blue arc is the shadow of the Earth cast onto the atmosphere opposite the sunset point. The pink Belt of Venus is from red sunlight still illuminating the upper atmosphere, an effect that lasts only a few minutes at sunset or sunrise, and requires a very clear sky to show up, as it was this night.13898004 - Badlands formations in Dinosaur Provincial Park lit by the light from the July 2022 "supermoon" Full Moon off frame at right and behind the hill, on a very clear night. The stars of the northern sky are set in a deep blue sky. Arcturus is at far left; the Big Dipper is at left (distorted somewhat by the panorama projection); Polaris is left of centre at top; Cassiopeia is right of center; Andromeda and Pegasus are below the W of Cassiopeia, and at far right is the star Altair.71417311 - Single Illuminated Camper Stands By The Sea At Night.
