Out and About – Night Sky

Here are a few images of the night sky that I have collected as of late 2024. Included are some Aurora shots, two different comets, a lunar eclipse, the Milky Way and some light pillars.

Northern Lights in September 2004, seen by the Monolith at Vigelandsparken in Oslo Some purples and greens behind a group of girls in the park A bit of the Milky Way in October of 2024, seen over cabins high above Voss in Norway
(we can’t see the galactic core here at this time of year) Looking the other way, I think I caught Pleiades near the top of the sky and Jupiter is the bright light On 15 October 2024, we went out to find Comen Tsuchinshan-ATLAS from our neighborhood in Oslo
(Clear skies and a fairly bright comet made it easy enough to find with help of a sky map on my phone — and my better half could see it by eye via binoculars) On 31 October 2025, we went to a nearby beach, Hvervenbukta, to attempt to find the Comet A6-Lemmon
(Cloudy skies and a much fainter comet made it much more difficult to “see”– can you find it?) On 7 September 2025, the lunar eclipse was just starting to end by the time the moon finally appeared over the hilly horizon of our neighborhood in Oslo Just a normal moon, but with a bit of earthshine along with that waxing crescent An almost full moon, caught in some tree branches On a cold night back in January, the ice crystals in the atmosphere reflected lights from the ground into light pillars
(I thought at first it was some sort of bizarre albino Aurora…silly me!) #AuroraBorealis #LightPillars #LunarEclipse #MilkyWay #Moon #NightSky #NorthernLights #Norway #Oslo #Photoblog #Photography
