A 300° panorama of the winter evening sky, January 12, 2017, with the Full “Wolf” Moon of mid-winter rising at left in the northeast, and Venus (brightest) and Mars (above) over in the southwest at right. Orion is rising in the east at centre, with Taurus above. The Big Dipper is at far left to the north. The remaining glow of twilight creates an arch of light in the southwest, while the rising Moon creates an arch of brighter sky at left. This was a very clear, transparent night but at -20° C. Note the glitter path on the snow from the Moon. I shot this from home in southern Alberta, using the Nikon D750 and 24mm Sigma Art lens. This is a stitch of 14 segments with generous overlap, stitched in Adobe Camera Raw.
