Last evening’s 41% illuminated moon as seen from Fort Atkinson, WI.
.
I haven’t had many opportunities to take photos on the road with the tight schedules I’ve been keeping. Then when I get home I just wanna chill, so the cameras rarely get touched. 😔

Had another chance to fly in downtown Madison yesterday, but I couldn’t get the drone in the air before the color started fading a bit. Still worth it!

Blue Hour in Madison, WI.

Since embarking on my new career I hadn’t visited Madison, so when I had a couple days off I decided to fly at the Capitol like old times! 🦅

Smokey sunset over Fort Atkinson, WI - 6/14/25

I have to admit that it’s been difficult finding the motivation to get out and photograph anything lately, but I forced myself to get out last evening. 🙌🏻

Smoky Moon 🌓
.
Since we’re in the midst of a geomagnetic storm, I went out briefly to see if I could photograph the Northern Lights through the wildfire smoke filled atmosphere. Well, no Northern Lights could be seen from where I am, so I settled for this smoky moon shot.

Black-Capped Chickadee posing pretty. These cute little ones are so resilient. Many are here in Wisconsin year round, even braving the cold of winter.

Common Loon at golden hour.

Park Lake in Pardeeville, WI is a stopover point for Common Loons on their way to their breeding grounds. It’s always a treat seeing - and hearing - them during their visit.
