Blood moon over Pittsburgh last night. My goal on this one was to get a sharper image than my 2022 lunar eclipse shot and I think I accomplished that. Hope you enjoy.

Some animal tracks in the fallen snow. Loved how the light was filtering through the trees and cast that golden light across the snow. Anyone able to tell what kind of tracks these are? Taken in Raccoon Creek State Park.

Nice cold morning hike at Raccoon Creek State Park just as the snow was winding down. The waterfall ice had such great fragile texture like it was a giant slushy and you cools put your hand through it. I hope you enjoy the post!

Brrrr. It was cold this past weekend but took the opportunity to run up to the top of the Duquesne Incline on Mt Washington to get some shots while it was snowing. I waited for about 20 minutes as I watched a snow band inch closer as it slowly enveloped the city. #Pittsburgh

I like to call this shot, “The Tree” I think for obvious reasons. This tree is somewhat locally famous and for good reason. I was fortunate enough to make this image while on a photography workshop in early October in the Dolly Sods area of WV, which is one of my happy places. Hope you enjoy
