Won't be long until this scene rolls around again - though with fresh snow on the tops, we could do with some better weather!

I was lucky enough to catch 2 eclipses this year.
This is a shot from the second and probably the best totality I've captured.

One thing I really like about the summer equinox is how we get these long, slow sunsets, full of gradients and colours.

This is a fave because I'm digging the mirrored movement of heavenly aurora and swirling mists.

The Dark Sky Reserve folks chose this image of mine as their Christmas post. :)
It's a fave, so I am very pleased they liked it too!

The second pic is the night of the Blood Moon.
High cloud created an intriguing and unique scene.
This night turned into something quite special - it turned into my first book!

Probably my favourite photographic expedition of the year was all the way back in March. A trip to capture the limestone formations under a full moon turned into something quite extraordinary.

This is my favourite part of the photo-posting year - Where I spend a few days revisiting my personal favourites from the last year.
For this , I was looking for an iconic Toadstool, and it took an hour to find.

Midwinter in New Orleans, and a big tick off my bucket list.
I like the Bar called Prohibition, since the only prohibitions I noticed were inhibitions!

I was talking to someone about previous Solar Cycles, and it reminded me of this night from 2015.
A full moon rose and completely washed out the reds and greens of the aurora with the bright blue of a daytime sky, while streetlights colour the waves.

When the storm is so full on that a mere 6 seconds is bordering on over-exposing the image!
So bright. Soooo bright.

One of my favourite locations is just up the road from home, one of the filming locations for #LOTR.
Lights! Action! uhh... Camera!

One of those scenes that has the car screeching to a halt, crazed photographer grabbing bits and pieces in a mad dash to capture the moment before it twists away and is gone.

The Coronal Aurora absolutely going OFF!
Still gives me thrills!

Not sure if you can see, but there are 3 or 4 horizontal bars in the middle of the "jet" for want of a better word.

Just giving it a little Glow-Up to make it pretty.

I planned for this shot to have a nice wee shape, with dark skies across the top. The trouble with Aurora though, they don't listen! So much bigger and more intense than expected!
