I photographed noctilucent clouds, for the first time.
Dunbar - Scotland

Noctilucent clouds, or night shining clouds, are tenuous cloud-like phenomena in the upper atmosphere of Earth. They consist of ice crystals and are only visible during astronomical twilight. Noctilucent roughly means "night shining" in Latin. They are most often observed during the summer months from latitudes between ±50° and ±70°. They are visible only during local summer months and when the Sun is below the observer's horizon, but while these very high clouds are still in sunlight.
They are the highest clouds in Earth's atmosphere, located in the mesosphere at altitudes of around 76 to 85 km (249,000 to 279,000 ft). They are too faint to be seen in daylight, and are visible only when illuminated by sunlight from below the horizon while the lower layers of the atmosphere are in Earth's shadow.

🇵🇹 Farol de Newhaven - Edimburgo, com vista para Pier Place & Starbank Road.

Faz muito tempo que não me dedico a este tipo de fotografia (landscape & seascape),
pois tenho estado mais focado na aprendizagem e todo o processo de astrofotografia e timelapse.
É claro que esta noite resultou num pequeno timelapse que vos mostrarei em breve.
Obrigado à minha parceira Monika pelo apoio e compreenção.

🇬🇧 Newhaven Lighthouse - Edinburgh, overlooking Pier Place & Starbank Road.
It has been a long time since I dedicated myself to this type of photography (landscape & seascape),
because I have been more focused on learning and the whole process of astrophotography and timelapse.
Of course, this evening resulted in a small timelapse that I will show you soon.
Thanks to my partner Monika for the support and understanding.

Photographed near Corrour - Scotland,
I drove around 3 hours to this beautiful and peaceful area free from light pollution (Bortle 1).
The darkest area I've ever photographed so far.
What a great night and great weather,
not bad for Scotland and November.
My first star trails done this way (242 stacked frames)

Thank you Monika for the support and understanding
