The clouds moving through the night sky add an extra layer to this landscape.
I have always enjoyed taking star pictures, and had a wonderfully clear night in Badlands National Park. This is the best view of the interstellar gas clouds I have managed yet.
This is a view from a few weeks ago on top of Ely’s Peak MN, looking East after sunset. This location becomes packed some times of year because of the large area that it overlooks, but also offers an old rail tunnel under the cliff, and access to some of the other hiking trails in the area.
This photo is from this summer during the evening visibility of comet NEOWISE. The comet is a long period comet that had not been previously recorded, and provided a surprisingly good show for several weeks.
