There's no need to put away your camera when the sun goes down. Indeed, many of the best photos are taken at night - whether under artificial lights, the moon, the stars, or even the dim glow of bioluminescent organisms. Let's see some of your interesting photos taken under the veil of night!

Iowa Stars Cr

A picture of grain silos under the stars in Iowa in February.  (Orion's belt is just visible at the top of the picture.)  

I was trying to take pictures of the planets but very cold temperatures (single digits °F) and some technical issues meant that this cell phone picture was the best of evening.
