Jealous of all of you from Of-Course-it-was-Overcast-Last-Night, NJ.

What time was this taken?
Judging by the stars I'm pretty sure it was night time.
Around 10:45 PM. That was the peak. Here’s another shot.
Is this what it looked like to your eyes, or is this the result of a night setting on your phone?
Can you know the peak beforehand? And if so, how can I look it up? 😁
Damn, you had a better view of it than I did up here in Washington (State).
Light pollution possibly? In Michigan we saw it, but the light pollution is so bad it was barely visible
I got a pretty good view of it in Washington but I kinda live in a slightly darker area
