Jupiter and three of its moons at 1:30 am this morning. I woke up and 1:30 am and remembered I had left the drip systems on, so I got up and turned off the drip system and photographed Jupiter. I forgot my iPhone, so I didn’t get any wide-angle photos of the sky at 1:30 am.

Jupiter with three of its moons at 5:30 am this morning. It’s interesting how the moons change positions through the night.

The clouds at sunset this evening.
The one looking east at 5:30 am is my fav. Wonderful photos, Tim.
Thanks, Jeff.
Welcome, Tim.
Beautiful evening clouds, Tim. I love the blue and gold colors. The night sky is beautiful too! I can’t get over how you can pick out Jupiter and its moons with that lens! I can just about make out Jupiter’s banded atmosphere.
We are clouding up here tonight after a warm day in the upper 80s.
Thanks, Lavinia. I’m learning where to find the planets as they move around.
Wow… Amazing to look at those heavenly stars… Thank you for sharing
You are welcome, Iswar. thanks, for stopping by.
These turned out great, thank you for sharing!!
Thanks, Frank.
Tim, more beautiful skies. You get incredible photos with your particular sleep/wake cycle. All to our advantage to view them. Thanks! 📚🎶 Christine
You are whelcome, Christine. Thanks for dropping by.
Excellent pictures, Timothy. They remind me of my dad showing us four girls Jupiter through his telescope when we were young (and so was he – smile)
Nice memories. Thanks, Roberta.
I love photos of the sky. The sky is something so…alive. always puts on a show. Whether it’s the stars at night, or some magnificent clouds, even the clear blue color is incredible to watch. Thanks for sharing your photos. Beautiful, as always.
Thanks, Inner Musings.
Love the amber tintec clouds especially
It’s always so interesting to see your photographs of the universe. I’ve tried to make the same discovery journey at night but there’s so much light pollution in this part of the world. Yes, I can spot the moon and with a little luck Venus and Mars. But that’s about it I’m afraid…
We get a lot of light polution, also, but at least I can still see a lot of stars and planets.
Ah… what a night sky and who’s a Night Owl?!!!!!
Love to see Betelgeuse is still there! 😉 Sirius behind the clouds?
Don’t know where Siries was hiding. Thanks, Marina.

Sirius is just not very bright. there is haze and clouds closer to the horizon.
I think it will be visible a little later in the year.
All so beautiful. Amazing of how clear it is. And no light gets in your way or trees.
Hope you can get some sleep tonight.
Thanks, Nancy.
Stunning skyscapes!
Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Beautiful skies. A sleepless night?
Up int the middle of the night, alsway up at 5:30. Thanks, Couriers..
How wonderful you don’t have the same level of light pollution and are able to capture these beauties. More than nicely done, Tim
Thanks, Dale. There is a lot of light polition, but the planets and many stars mange to peek through it.
More in your neck than in mine!
Exciting night shots, Tim. The Jupiter + moons images are truly amazing.
Thanks, Maj & Sher.
Wonderful sightings 🙂 and skies
Thanks, Sue.
😁
The universe is in constant movement and transition. You have captured exquisite moments, Tim. Thank you.
Nothing stands still. Thanks, Rebecca.
Beautiful photos of clouds and the sunset🙂
Thanks, Saima.
No sleep for the talented photographer, I take it?
This is a very cool series.
Sleep gets to be sketchy at times. The night sky always has something to offer. Thanks, JYP.
Never a dull moment in your skies, Tim!
Great shots!
Lively skies always entertain.
I might have been able to see those same scenes, but my pillow was blocking the view hehehe!
Pillows happen. Thanks, Brian.
