Description

I started this on an unusually steady night on December 8th. Then it's been mostly cloudy since then.

I saw high cloud wisps during sundown on March 3rd and figured it would not be a clear night. It's very difficult to see high clouds at night.

I decided to start shooting at 8:30 PM to see what might happen. I was pleasantly surprised to find the air was super steady, even better than December 8th! I guess the high clouds dissipated and left a very steady situation up until 3:36 AM when clouds moved in again.

Luckily March 6th was clear from 8 PM to 4 AM, so I captured 7 hours of RGB.
