Backyard Autumn Nighttime Sky Over New Jersey.
Second night in a row the sky was clear, so I set up two cameras to record the night sky (and hope to see some meteors).

I noticed some yellow color out my window just before sunrise. I ran out with my Leica CL camera to catch some of the color before it faded. The prediction is more rain today and tonight. The county already sent out local flooding warnings until Saturday morning.
The sky looked relatively clear again, so I put two cameras out to record the night sky. This time I remembered to set the ISO on the D850 camera correctly. I managed to see a couple of small meteor trails (Taurids?).

This was the night with a clear sky for a long time. I set up two cameras to record the nighttime sky for composite Star Trail images. The first a Nikon D810a camera with 19 mm f/4 PC-E lens looking west. I like this camera for nighttime sky photography because it can be set to take images longer than 30 seconds (up to 900 seconds). The second a Nikon D850 camera with a 8-15 mm fisheye lens looking up from my patio. I forgot to reset the ISO for the Nikon D850 camera from 100 to 800. When I looked at the images, they were all black — but since the raw for this camera have an amazing dynamic range, I was able to increase the brightness by 4 stops during post-processing and get decent images…
