For the first outing of this year 2025 I headed to the foot of the American Montsec memorial.

The sky was perfectly clear but the atmosphere still remained saturated with humidity, greatly diffusing the little light pollution present in the Meuse.

When I arrived there I discovered that the monument was still lit so I decided to stand just below the road leading there to take measurements of the sky and then go back up to the monument once the lighting had gone out to take my first plan. I finished acquiring the sky around 10:30 p.m. for the moonrise and the monument is still not extinguished... we had to wait until 12:10 a.m. for the powerful headlights to turn off. I will also take advantage of this outing to test a new filter acquired at the beginning of January, the result of which is very satisfactory.
