Hey everyone,
Have a look at the images attached to this post. These were taken of the same location in the sky at the same time of day. August 1, September 7, October 4 in that order. The fourth picture is the same as the third, other than my own addition to it to highlight some of the more obvious changes.
I haven't finished going through all of the images yet but the stars are going out. Sometimes one a week, sometimes one a night. Averages out to something like ten to twelve per month from what I can see. Maybe more, since the tablet camera doesn't pick up every star all that well, and the trees get in the way.
For now, I have enough of a star chart to navigate by, so long as those stars don't go dark. I'll let you all know if Doctor Ingram or I see a change in the rate of losses.
If anyone can control cloud layers and wants to give me a clear sky every now and then, I'd appreciate it.
((Here's a cool animated version! Thanks, Xy!))

Where are you taking these pictures? Might be worth having multiple cameras working.

By the shore as much as possible. Least obstructed view of the sky there. Not sure what multiple cameras will show but feel free.

Good luck.
