2021-05-30 Twilight, Orion, Mars and Gemini [4K]

(I did shoot the recent lunar eclipse but since it was cloudy..... I am still working on what I captured.)

I used auto-ISO setting again and was hoping to capture the sunset, twilight and then Orion setting into the sea/horizon, in one continuous time lapse.

Hiccups:
Despite great weather during the day, there was no sunset due to clouds near the horizon.
I didn't notice the street light glare when it got dark. So I had to move the camera in the middle of the shooting - that why you may notice the tree suddenly disappeared.

Challenge: see if you catch Venus (in fact together with Mercury) hanging low in the horizon - use maximum resolution and look at frame 2021-05-30 17.46.06, it is above the passer-by on the left)

Encoded at 30 frames per second, it may be better viewed at half speed.

Towards the end you can also see Gemini appearing from the right (north) and of course Sirius from the top.

I tried deflickering the video but decided to post the original video.
