Viewing time for the densest part of the Milky Way is rapidly dwindling as autumn advances. Last night appeared to be clear, but the sky brightness was a mediocre (for Creede) sqml=21.15. There may have been a layer of thin clouds that was not easy to see. Some airglow is visible in the long exposures (60 s), but it does not appear to be the cause.
Images were obtained with an Olympus E-M1iii + Rokinon 12mm f/2 lens + Hoya Sparkle-6 filter.

Vega is the fifth brightest star, just behind Arcturus.
