  1. Keep alert as you are out and about. The unseasonable warmth is bringing back some flowers here and there!

  6. The skies cleared, so I was able to catch sight of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS again, with assistance of a tripod and a remote trigger to avoid shake and blur.

  7. It's too cloudy tonight to catch sight of the comet. Maybe tomorrow night. We don't have long until it disappears for a few centuries!

  9. The comet is so very dim now. This is probably the last night for useable photographs.

    Thank you, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, for so many nights of wonder and delight. We live n a universe of miraculous beauty.

  10. I tried a new experiment tonight, capturing the #Fall #foliage and the #stars in the same photograph. I think they came out nicely, although I can tell there is a lot of room for my technique to improve.

    (The "line" in one photo is a commercial airplane that stumbled thru the shot. I found it charming.)

  11. Every night, I wonder if it is the *last* night I'll be able to photograph Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. But it showed up again tonight with *just* enough brightness.

    "But a thing isn't beautiful because it lasts…"

  12. I was able to squeeze a few good photos of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS out of my setup tonight. But it grows increasingly dim and hard to separate from the "noise" of the night sky.

    Still thankful for the opportunity to document astronomical history.

  13. Tonight, Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS contrasted with #Autumn #foliage over #TrumbullCT.

    It was *much* harder to photograph the comet tonight, either because it is dimmer or because there was more light pollution. But I am happy with the few shots I managed to get.

  14. Photos of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS taken tonight via my Canon EOS R7 using my Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L lens.

    The first is with the F-Stop minimized and the second with it at normal settings. Both enhanced a bit with Luminari Luminar Neo.

    I think I am learning what works best for my setup. I am much happier with these photos than the ones last night.

  15. After 3 days of searching of the evening sky, I *finally* got photos of Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS over my home in #TrumbullCT.

    They're not the best or the brightest - my iPhone 16 Pro Max did better than my SLR - but they're mine. A little piece of history. :-)

  16. I sighted a yellow-bellied sapsucker #OutMyOfficeWindow today in #TrumbullCT!

    Until now, I thought it was just an insult used by Looney Tunes characters. :-)

  17. This was my first confirmed sighting of a Blue-Headed Vireo in our apple tree. It's a little bird that ranges through Canada and the northern United States.

  18. The #AuroraBorealis returned around 10 PM. Visible to the eye, but not nearly as bright as it was earlier. Still dazzling.
