The days are changing so fast. We are up to 17 hours of daylight and it is never very dark.

We have no true night and no astronomical twilight. I was curious what nautical twilight looks like and took some photos when the clouds were mostly covering the moon.

In real life there was plenty of light to walk around in the woods without a headlamp. Very few stars were visible as it wasn’t dark enough. My phone makes it appear darker in the photos.

The above photo is to the northeast during nautical twilight. While there is light on the horizon, over an hour remained until civil twilight, and 2 1/4 hours until sunrise.
