The night launch has got to be one of the best reasons for living where I do.
The one aspect of the launch that I have not been able to figure out how to capture is the light show that the rocket puts on in the clouds, last night in particular watching the clouds get brighter and then once the rocket goes above those clouds, watching them dim again. It was quiet the show.
Réservoir Beaudet, Victoriaville, Québec, Canada.
Merci beaucoup pour tous vos commentaires, ils sont grandement appréciés.
En passant pour les amis Flickr qui se demandaient comment va ma nouvelle connexion internet, c'est vraiment fantastique depuis que je suis avec Starlink, très rapide.
Les travaux terminés sur la maison et le terrain en prévision d'une vente prochaine, nous voulions prendre une journée et changer d'air. Nous sommes donc allés à un Réservoir Beaudet de Victoriaville pour y rejoindre nos amis Serge et Carole. 4 heures de route de chez nous, pas question d'effectuer un aller-retour, nous dormirions chez nos amis à Montréal pour revenir à la maison le lendemain après avoir fait quelques courses. J'avais avisé Alain roi incontesté du Réservoir Beaudet et un bon ami phonographe de cette superbe région que nous y serions ce jour-là au cas où il serait dans le coin. Magnifique journée ensoleillée et des Oies des neiges à profusion, car selon Alain que je croisais en après-midi, ce serait une des journées avec le plus haut nombre d'Oies des neiges 70,000. J'ai aussi eu l'occasion de revoir et échanger avec d'autre amis Flickr que je ne croise pas souvent puisque je demeure dans une tout autre région. Très belle journée de rencontre dans un environnement d'une grande beauté et au son de milliers d'Oies. J'espérais avoir l'occasion de capter des Oies de neiges en vol au-dessus du réservoir Beaudet, mais avant tout avec un Bokeh de feuillage aux couleurs automnal tel que souvent présenté par Alain... Tel ne fut pas le cas, car les arbres étaient tous ou presque dépouillés de leurs feuilles déjà ce jour-là. C'est à la tout fin de la journée alors que tout le monde pliait bagage par manque de lumière pour faire de la photo. Voici donc une première prise plein cadre de ce magnifique moment.
Reservoir Beaudet, Victoriaville, Quebec, Canada.
Thank you very much for all your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
By the way for my Flickr friends wondering how my new internet connection is going, it's really fantastic since I'm with Starlink, very fast.
The work completed on the house and the land in anticipation of an upcoming sale, we wanted to take a day and get some fresh air. So we went to a Beaudet Reservoir in Victoriaville to join our friends Serge and Carole. 4 hours drive from home, no question of making a round trip, we would sleep with our friends in Montreal to return home the next day after doing some shopping. I had advised Alain, undisputed king of that beautiful water storage and a great phonograph friend from this superb region that we would be there that day in case he was around. Magnificent sunny day and snow geese galore, because according to Alain whom I met in the afternoon, it would be one of the days with the highest number of snow geese 70,000. I also had the opportunity to see and exchange with other Flickr friends that I don't often meet since I live in a completely different region. Very nice day of meeting in an environment of great beauty and to the sound of thousands of geese. I was hoping to have the opportunity to capture Snow Geese in flight above the Beaudet Reservoir, but above all with a Bokeh of fall coloured foliage as often presented by Alain... Such was not the case, because the trees were all or almost stripped of their leaves already that day. It's at the very end of the day when everyone was packing up for lack of light to take pictures. Here is a first full-frame shot of this magnificent moment.

I have been sitting at home after a heart attack for over half a year and now the crown virus around. I do what I can photograph from the windows and balcony. They were supposed to be Starlink satellites ( SpaceX ) and they are - I didn't notice them at first, only after uploading them to Flickr did I find them - the pictures at 13 o'clock were hardly visible at the top. For some time I saw them in binoculars, I thought that I did not set the direction correctly - but still good. I took a picture using the LiveComposite technique 22x50s = 1100 s , 3400 K .
It's starlink time
We can see a lot in flight at this moment
They will soon leave the place
But fot the moment weather is still nice

C'est le moment des étourneaux
On peut en voir beaucoup en vol en ce moment
Ils vont bientot partir
Mais pour le moment il fait toujours beau

Not the image I was wanting to capture from Starlink 4-20 however, I still like it. Here is a lesson for forgetting to set the ISO, and not using a wide angle lens
Shooting the night sky through the redwood canopy can be tricky. And especially tricky to pull in any portion of the Milky Way. This location, like most within the redwood coast, was in a gentle sloping valley. Most of the compositions that provided the greatest density of stars were looking almost straight up into the dense canopy of giant redwood and Douglas fir trees.
The windows looking southwest through the canopy were extremely limited, and I gave up hope of getting the galactic core within the opening I finally decided on. The other challenge of shooting the night sky here, or anywhere - avoiding the light coming off any Starlink satellite. The problem is the two thousand plus Starlink satellites are positioned in low-Earth orbit, so they appear particularly bright and move rapidly across the night sky.
I took this shot from the beach in Vero Beach, Florida this evening. SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket carrying 54 Starlink satellites. The first stage later successfully landed on the drone ship "Just Read the Instructions" which was out in the Atlantic.
SpaceX Falcon 9 launch, 1:12 AM EDT on August 7, 2020. This image was taken from Vero Beach which is about 50 miles (ca. 80 km) south of Kennedy Space Center. This was the tenth Starlink mission. It launched 57 Starlink satellites and 2 BlackSky satellites from LC-39A at Kennedy Space Center. The Falcon 9's first stage was also used in four previous missions landed on the SpaceX drone ship "Of Course I Still Love You".

You're looking at some 60 satellites hurtling through the sky. And over the next few decades, Elon Musk is hoping to send 42,000 of these satellites to space, 15 times the number of operational satellites in orbit today. It's part of Starlink, the expansive constellation from Musk and SpaceX that hopes to bring the world low-latency high-speed internet, promising no more buffering and nearly instantaneous internet in every corner of the world. But experts worry it may come at a hefty cost for space exploration.

It's a beautiful sight to see this visual display of SpaceX Falcon rockets launch Starlink Satellites into low orbit! A usual occasion for those living Southern California, leaving Vandenburg Space Force Base, just north of Santa Barbera!
Having left for Iceland just as Covid-19 started to hit the UK, it's now been over six weeks since I saw any work colleagues or friends, chums, pals: whatever they want to call themselves.
I'm missing the chance to meet up again, and the freedom to go to places like Dinorwic and Dinorwig.
I'm caught here looking wistfully out at the rain, looking for salvation from the skies and watching out for the Starlink satellites. But even that isn't happening. Three nights I've watched now. Nothing.
But we must be patient. We've got to be strong together and self-disciplined or this awful threat will plague us forever.

Every shot I took of the Rosette Nebula had satellites in it, this is one of the worst with 6 that I can see. I'm not sure if this is the Starlink satellites?

There are a couple of comets passing by right now. I tried in vain last night to spot the other but failed.
Clearly I was more sucessful tonight. (see the red arrow). This one isn't visble to (my) naked eye but I knew where to aim the camera and let it do it's thing. Gratifyiing Result.
Interestingly enough if you zoom in there are a lot of streaks in the sky. When I noticed them I thought it was my camera but two other frames taken were different. I think they must have been Starlink satellites. Now I understand why the astronomy community has their concerns!

(Update: Mystery solved, the satellite was CSO 1, a French military imaging satellite. Thanks ehrwien for pointing me toward Stellarium!)
Colorful and bright Perseid meteor traveled "up" from the bottom left of the frame, and much later a mystery satellite crossed right in the middle of Andromeda.
I don't know what this satellite was, maybe it's one of SpaceX's starlink sats? It went across the entire frame from left to right starting at around 2:54 AM Pacific DST on Aug/15 2020, but the leftmost part was cut because it was between two frames.
Interesting that the color of the meteor changed during the flight, greenish at first and later turning into orange. This is real, it's there in a single frame before any post-processing.
Shot from my heavily light-polluted back yard. Total exposure 1150 sec, each either 30 or 40 sec at ISO3200. I first made a stack of 1150 sec using sequator, loaded it in photoshop, then loaded two individual frames containing meteor and satellite, respectively, as separate layers, used visibility mask to only blend the trajectory into the stack.
BTW no tracking mount was used, this was all done on a weeny travel tripod, fine tracking was all done by the camera (Astrotracer to move the sensor), and a rough "tracking" was done manually each 10 minutes or so by moving the ballhead.

It is operated by Aviation Starlink Inc. of Dorval, Quebec. The AIM logo on the tail belongs to American Iron & Metal Company Inc. of Montreal, Quebec.
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched at 12:07 AM on 11-07-23. The spacecraft was carrying 23 StarLink satellites into orbit. The first stage booster landed on the drone ship Just Read The Instructions which was just north of the Bahamas. This image was taken in Vero Beach, Florida which is about 70 miles south of the launch site.

The blue ion tail of Comet NEOWISE seems to go on forever, as a constellation of Starlink satellites passes through the main white coma of the Comet.
Took until local midnight before the night sky had darkened enough to see them. Really doesn't get dark here this time of year for more than a few hours What I found interesting about this one is the blue satellite streak (might have to view large to see it). At first I thought it was a colour balance issue but it turns out the blue is likely due to the coating used on a Starlink satellite.
