The rising Hunter’s Full Moon behind the big old barn near home in southern Alberta, on a very clear autumn night, October 27, 2015. This is one frame from a time-lapse sequence, taken with the Nikon D750 and 24mm Sigma lens. Exposure was 5 seconds at f/5.6 and ISO 800.
Orion and Canis Major over Lake Annette, in Jasper National Park, with Sirius and other stars reflected in the waters. Orion appears over Whistler peak, illuminated in part by lights from the Jasper townsite. I shot this on the morning of October 25, 2015, as the sky was brightening with dawn twilight. The exposure was 25 seconds at f/2.8 with the 24mm lens and at ISO 3200 with the Canon 6D. The camera was untracked, on a fixed tripod. No filter was employed - the fuzzy star glows come from high haze in the sky that morning.
The ISS (International Space Station) rising out of the west over the Red Deer River, near the Atlas Coal Mine site (the source of the streetlight here), in the evening twilight, October 10, 2015. This is a single 30-second exposure at f/2.5 with the Sigma 24mm lens and Nikon D750 at ISO 1600.
