Callenson had the courage and conviction to stay with the scene and keep filming. Not to run away, but instead to follow the scene. To continue documenting what was unfolding.
I’d like to think I’d have done the same. I’m not sure at all that I would have.

“Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light; I have loved the stars too truly to be fearful of the night.”
— Sarah Williams, “The Old Astronomer”
The Leo Triplet, also known as the M66 Group, is a small group of galaxies in the constellation Leo. One of the galaxies, NGC 3628, is also known as “Sarah’s Galaxy”, named after poet Sarah Williams. It’s the thin, flat one on the left.
Moon: June 6, 2025 — Waxing Gibbous 82%
Still a bit humid when I captured this one. But less so than the previous night.

Through the clouds.
A bit of a cloudy, wet night for this one. So there's a bit of bloom, but still managed to get a decent shot.

Finally starting to get clear skies again. Managed to get this old friend last night. 🌓 First Quarter Moon.

Behold the Pink Moon.
You’ll note, of course, that it’s not pink. “Pink” is just the name for the moon in April. This one I captured with the ASI678MC. The full disk fits pretty nicely with the Askar FRA400 + 678, though I do need to worry more about it drifting out of frame sooner.
Best 35% of 500 images, 2x drizzle, stacked & sharpened in PlanetarySystemStacker, edited in Affinity Photo (levels, curves, etc.).
