Have you a photo of a path as beautiful as this?

A little excerpt from @danzep.bsky.social book "Overnight" featuring the #Buckfastleigh bats with me and Phil @thejunebrides.bsky.social
Night landscape. A road in the foreground goes away and to the left, surrounded on either side by bushy hedgerows. A small tree on the right rises out of the hedge, and branches from a tall tree enter the top of the frame. The sky appears blue due to the long exposure picking up moonlight. Starry sky, with a small patch of clouds in the top left. The constellation of Corvus (the crow) is centered, the brightest stars appearing as a trapezoid.
View of Corvus in last night's sky

A few years ago Phil Wilson @thejunebrides.bsky.social & I took author @danzep.bsky.social to see the Greater Horseshoe Bat emergence in #Buckfastleigh for his book Overnight. It's a moving & fascinating book - catch the review here then get a copy!

Night landscape photograph. Sky appearing blue due to twilight and moon light in a long exposure. Cloudless sky, with numerous stars, Orion left, Taurus Center, and the Pleiades to the right. Jupiter a bright white star-like object above Taurus. Rural landscape of fields, lit by a low, bright moon, left of the image in shadow, right illuminated. Small town in the center shines out with many street and house lights. There's a layer of clouds just above the horizon.
Beginning to lose the winter constellations to twilight now

Our first swallow of the season spotted today flying over the ruin of Holy Trinity church #Buckfastleigh
Wide angle landscape night photograph. The town appears a dense cluster of street and house lights amongst an unlit foreground. Moon setting in the lower right appears bright but is really only a thin crescent, it's blown out though so you can't really tell, except there is a 'ghost' artifact revealing the crescent. The sky is cloudless and full of stars with Orion, Taurus, and the Pleiades dominating the center. Jupiter appears as a very bright, white star-like object shining brightly above the distinctive 'V' asterism in Taurus.
Tonight's sky over #Buckfastleigh #Devon
