The Lunar Eclipse 2025 Blood Worm moon. My first eclipse of any sort. Long time Milky Way and Aurora guy and learning the moon now. Windy cold cloudy and just enough holes in the clouds to have a great night. Dufur Or. #lunareclipse #photography #moon #pnw

Sunrise was epic this morning. I was on my way to photograph birds and the sky began to light up. I quickly found a spot to capture this lone coyote with the sunrise #photography #oregon #sunrise #coyote

Little Cabin in Eastern Oregon in what is now the largest dark sky “park” in the USA. This is also a more complex shot consisting of 21 images tracked and stacked for the sky and 3 images focus stacked for the foreground. Sky was processed in Pixinsight.

Cannon Beach - Milky Way! This pic is what got me obsessed with Milky Way shots at Cannon Beach, back in 2019. That bright "star"? Just Jupiter being extra.

Single image, minimal editing needed - love it! Shot on Sony a7rii 35mm f1.4, 10” f1.6 ISO 6400.
