Noctilucent clouds at 3 am on June 27 over a prairie pond in southern Alberta. The NLCs were visible as an arc across the north for at least 2 hours and were still there as dawn twilight brightened at 3:30 am. This is looking due north with the bowl of the Big Dipper at upper left. Capella is at lower right. Shot with the 24mm lens.
A display of noctilucent clouds, the first good display of the season from my area of southern Alberta, on June 17/18. 2016. This is with a 105mm telephoto and the Nikon D750, and is the first frame of a 1000-frame time-lapse sequence. However, as the Sun dropped farther below the horizon the clouds did lose illumination and faded, from the top down.
A panorama of a display of noctilucent clouds (NLCs) on the night of June 17-18, 2015, shot from home in Alberta looking north. I used a 135mm telephoto to zoom in on the display along the horizon. This is a stitch of 6 segments, each a 6-second exposure at f/2 and at ISO 800 with the Canon 6D. A very faint aurora is at right. Capella is right of top centre. Fog lies in the valley below, from a cool damp night after a day of rain.
