We had a lovely moonset this evening just before a decent passage of the International Space Station.
Here are a few shots of how it all looked:

And finally, here's a shot of the ISS just to the lower left of Sagittarius and the summer Milky Way:

Yes, that's sky glow in the lower left. I enjoy reasonably dark skies from south to west to north but the glow of Tucson is significant in the southeast and east.

Even in Tucson, which has a pretty progressive outdoor lighting ordinance, light pollution is a problem.
Look for more pics from Alaska to be posted next.
