If you're a skywatcher, it's been a very good year. If you're not a skywatcher, then why not? You're missing out on nature's greatest show. All photos taken by me.

I would love to see all these, but I keep hearing about them the day after when everyone is posting pictures on Facebook. I did hear about the comet the day before, then promptly forgot to put it on my calendar as a reminder.

Hi Jeremy
Great photos.
The air looks clear out there.

The photo of the ring around the moon and with the x, gives me thoughts of Scully and Mulder from the X files and I can hear the theme song. duhduhduhduh Whis, whis, whis, whistle noiiiiiise duhduhduhduh Whis.....

Just be careful out there Jeremy, that portal could open anytime.

Experienced, good, CNC operators are in great demand in this universe.
They may just come and take you away to an alien workshop in a space colony and have you machining wood for the rest of your life.
(don't ask me where they get the wood from in space please)

Clint, the good news is, as the earth's magnetic field weakens, aurora displays like that become more common. The bad news is, the earth's magnetic field is weakening, and these frequent auroras visible from low latitudes are an indicator of that. lol...just keep looking up and keep a camera handy!

Yeah, I definitely was humming the X files theme when I took the picture!
Being as astronomy has been my lifelong hobby, I have always dreamed of getting to see the sky from Australia. Can't see those southern stars from here. We should trade for a while, then you could see the northern stars you never get to see.
