Northern Lights in Hesperia, MI. Shot in 2023. Used my iPhone 13 Pro Max mounted to a tripod. This was the best I could manage as it happened to be cloudy that night.

My first attempt at astrophotography back in 2023. The only tools? My old iPhone 13 Pro Max, and a tripod.

Being in Española, NM certainly helped as there was hardly any light pollution!

The Seattle skyline viewed from Kerry Park.

For those fans of the hit TV show "Fraiser", the backdrop used for the title character's apartment view was originally shot here!

Probably one of the most beautiful sunsets I've captured when I visited Issaquah, Washington back in Sept 2024.

Figured I’d post this photo I took of a frozen lake out here in Michigan as my first post on this platform.
