Details:
We certainly enjoyed a massive outbreak of NLCs at dawn on July 16. At dusk the evening before, only a few wisps were visible in the northeast. But at dawn the sky was filled with NLCs.
This was the best showing of noctilucent clouds I had seen to date from Alberta, Canada for this year. At dawn on July 16 the NLCs extended far up the sky, to the zenith before the brightening dawn sky washed them out. This was the first display I had seen so far this year to cover as much of the sky as this, essentially half the sky and more.
Venus rising low in the east was a bonus. I include a panorama and a single wide-angle shot, as well as a selfie under the NLCs.
