Some say "the best camera is the one you have with you", and there's a lot of truth to that saying.

So here are 4 photos I took with my Google Pixel 9 Pro XL smartphone camera while taking out the garbage this evening.

La Luna, sola. Sin nada que la cruce, sin compañía. Más cerca. Más clara. Como si por una vez se dejara mirar del todo. No hay nada más que decir… solo verla.

A hat, ideally a black one, helps prevent vibrations when taking long #AstroPhotography exposures.

I used a black Moosehead cap while taking these #UrbanAstroPhotography photos of the setting waxing crescent Moon with Montreal's Aldred Building "skyscraper" last night.

In Montréal, a good number of the downtown main streets are more or less aligned with the #SummerSolstice sunset, so #MontréalHenge is still a few weeks away...

I managed to get a good #UrbanAstroPhotography photo of a quite pink looking "Pink Moon" rising behind the pink house on the abandoned Canada Malting building in Montreal's Saint-Henri borough five years ago.

On this day a year ago, the sun poured down like honey
on 'Our Lady of the Harbour', i.e. the statue of Mary Mother of Jesus aka 'The Queen of Heaven' that graces Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours chapel, until it didn't. . .

Venus & Mercury were still quite close together tonight, so I took some more #UrbanAstrophotography photos of the pair as they set in the west.

The Moon and Jupiter and a green traffic light earlier this evening, when there was still some blue in the post sunset dusk sky.

No worries Leila.

I make a point of including recognizable urban landmarks in my #UrbanAstrophotography photos.

BTW That is #AlexanderCalder 's 'Man, Three Disks' in the background to the left of #Montreal's Old Port tower.

It often features in my #Astrophotography.

Here are two of my photos of the Moon close to Venus in that Facebook post from November 13, 2020.

Mercury is an added bonus below the Moon in the photos. 😀

Redirecting...

It's totally clouded out in Montreal thanks to a snowstorm, but I have various Moon-Venus conjunctions from previous years juxtaposed with Montreal landmarks.
