Last light

It's well after sunset but the horizon still shows the glow from the sun, at least on long exposure photos! Subaru is the telescope in the foreground. The dome is metallic coloured and often turns a golden colour at this time of night if there are high clouds around to reflect the red light. On this occasion, however, the sky is clear and the dome takes on a less interesting grey/silver colour and a lot less contrast to play with.
