The waxing crescent Moon near Jupiter on the evening of March 14, 2024, setting into the western twilight sky on an austral autumn evening. The Moon is in thin cloud adding the colourful lunar "corona" around it from diffraction from the cloud's water droplets. Earthshine is visible on the "dark side of the Moon."

This is a 200° panorama of the arch of the northern Milky Way rising over the Badlands landscape of Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta. This was the night of May 31/June 1, 2024, when from this latitude of 50° 45' N the sky is not fully dark even in the middle of the night, here at about 1:30 a.m. MDT. So the sky retains a blue tint, especially to the north at left.

This frames most of the intricate arcs and loops of the Vela Supernova Remnant (SNR), the remains of a star that exploded about 11,000 years ago. It is one of the closest SNRs to Earth, about 900 light years away. Most arcs and segments have no separate catalogue numbers, with the exception of the short straight Pencil Nebula, aka Herschel's Ray, in the lower left corner which is NGC 2736. It is the brightest segment of the Vela SNR visually in a telescope. The nebula complex is marked with lots of cyan arcs emitting oxygen III wavelengths, mixed with regions of red hydrogen-alpha emission.

This is the supernova remnant known as the Spaghetti Nebula, but more formally as Simeis 147 or Sharpless 2-240. It was discovered at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory in 1952, an observatory also known by its name of Simeiz for the location where one of its facilities was located, thus the name of the catalogue of objects that includes entry #147. The supernova that created this nebula exploded some 40,000 years ago and is about 3,000 light years away. In the sky it stretches across more than 3°, so it is big! The field of view here is 6.6° by 4.4°. The bright star at right is Elnath in T

The Milky Way rising over the peak of Mt. Blakiston, in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada. This was June 10/11, 2024, so some snow still remains at high altitudes. This is an example of a "deepscape" — a nightscape taken with a longer focal length lens than is usual for nightscapes, to frame a fragment of a landscape below an interesting area of sky with notable deep-sky objects.

This is a selfie portrait of me under the Milky Way from my backyard in rural Alberta, on a spring night, May 9/10, 2024. The summer Milky Way and the constellations of Sagittarius and Scorpius (with yellow Antares) lie due south here, but low in the sky at my latitude of 51° N. This shows the Dark Horse well, made of dark dust lanes in the Milky Way. The galactic centre is just above the trees at centre. A meteor is at left below Altair.

The stars and clouds trail across the sky over Cameron Lake in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, and Mt. Custer across the border in Glacier National Park in Montana.

Some ice remains in this alpine lake, as this was early June 2024. Wind and the long exxposures blurs the lake surface and reflections. The hill at left is scarred by the 2017 forest fire.

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 galactic centre area in Sagittarius (at left) and Scorpius (at right) low in the south on a summer night at Dinosaur Provincial Park, Alberta. This was June 30/July 1, 2022. Being just 10 days after summer solstice and at latitude +50° North, the sky even to the south still has a blue tint from all-night twilight. I made no attempt to neutralize the sky colouration. In addition, some haze from smoke discoloured the sky and reduced transparency and contrast low in the sky.

This is a framing of the rich complex of nebulosity in and around the constellations of northern Cygnus and southern Cepheus, in a blend of "white light" images and images shot through a deep red hydrogen-alpha filter that isolates the red emission line from the gas clouds, bringing them out in much more detail than is otherwise possible.

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.

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 ob

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. .
