Beautiful. What time was this taken at? We tried waiting up one night for the stars, but the civil twilight was still pretty bright at 12:30 am. Didn't really get a chance to enjoy the night sky. Maybe next time!

It was taken at 1:04am on 6/3 at Daisy Farm Dock. I was there for 10 nights and had 7 crystal clear nights, 2 nights of rain and 1 night of partly cloudy which still made for some nice shots. Image below was at 2 am on 6/4 in Rock Harbor
