Last Friday night up at Duck Lake, the sky was very clear and there more stars than I’ve seen in a long time.  I had to get some photographs of them.  Here I present them in three formats.

About a week ago, while up at OCC, I waited until well after sunset, about 10:30, and walked down to the dock to see the stars.  I was amazed, not at the stars, but at how light it was.  I could still make my way down the dock without the flashlight.  I had to wait about another hour before it was dark enough to really […]
