A view of the stars to the south late at night during the last weeks of summer.

stars to the south

This photograph was taken on a summer night after midnight. Looking south in the sky you see a band of the Milky Way as it starts to bend toward the west. A bright star that you can see about two-thirds of the way to the right is Altair. The warm red and orange color captured in the cloud cover near the Horizon is an artifact of the long exposure photography that helped me capture this photograph at night. The magenta colors, from man-made sources near the ground that emanates up into the lower clouds and accumulate over the 30 Second exposure of this image.

Watching the night sky is one of my favorite things to do in the summer. Now after many years of doing it, I am able to understand the motion of the stars through the years better then I could when I first started. Learning the names of the constellations and the stars and the patterns of that movement has been an interesting hobby.
