Night Sky

Both Friday and Saturday evenings looked to be good for star gazing.  I headed over to the Green Lake boat launch to see the sunset and, hopefully, the Milky Way.

It was well after dark Friday before I got over there, so missed the sunset.  However, the stars were very nice.  You can just make out the milky way in the center of the image.  Still, there is a lot of light pollution, even when looking away from Traverse City.

I did manage to catch the sunset on Saturday evening.  It wasn’t spectacular, but was nice.

What a great way to end a wonderful day!
