Weeping Wall II

Here is my second unique shot of one of the most iconic places in Glacier National Park. Just in case you wondered, it was completely dark out. I could barely (not Bearly) see my friend as he stood 4 feet away from me. It is a fun challenge to imagine what you could see and then try to photograph it.

Under the Stars

A beautiful yet cold night at the Alvord Desert in Oregon.

Hangman's Night

While out trying to find new locations to photograph the Milky Way, I found this bend in Hangman Creek (eastern Washington). My goal was to try to teach a few people a bit about MW photography. They said they learned a bunch but not sure how much was from me. I became focused on trying to capture the Aurora Borealis along with the Milky Way.

Glacier's Glow

The Sprague creek fire let off some sad but surreal light.

Predawn

I never get tired of shooting at the Apgar boat launch.

Weeping Wall

The Weeping Wall in Glacier National Park is on the Going to the Sun Road. It normally has cars whizzing by and there is no way to get a good shot of it...Until now. With a quarter moon to illuminate the falls and no traffic because of the time(a bit after midnight) I was able to capture my first good shot of this area.

Smoky Stars

An odd shot of Wild Goose Island in Glacier Park, It is a 1 hour long shot and the green in the sky is from the forest fire smoke.

Burgdorf Night

Burgdorf Hot Springs is about 40 minutes outside of McCall, ID. It is just plain old fashioned rustic and cool. You can soak your cares away but you can not flush a toilet

30 Miles out.

Out in the prairie about 30 miles east of Conrad, MT sits this old house. If you want to get good night skies you need to be away from city lights..Mission accomplished. As we sat on this dirt road waiting for the sky to go dark, the conversation turned to how desolate and hard life had to be out there 100 years ago. The world has changed. People complain now when they have no cell reception. I was sitting there thinking how hard it would have been to get water.

False Kiva in Canyon Lands Utah

I drove a long way out of my way to get this shot. Met up with a friend and hiked along a cliff at night to get here also. It was an experience that will never be forgotten. I would not suggest it to anyone else.

Lightning bolt from the deck

Psychedelic Bridge

Stumbled upon an aurora display while out shooting the Milky Way at Heyburn state park. Sometimes while I am out shooting I just have to stop in awe at the beauty that is put before us.

Lonely Night

Milky Way by Firelight

The orange glow is the smoke from the Reynolds Creek fire being illuminated by the fire itself. This Panorama is a huge view. It is over 180 degrees wide and straight overhead.

Lone tree

This tree has not changed in the past 40 plus years.

Iconic London from Waterloo bridge.

Blowing the Clouds

Palouse Falls Smiling Whale

This is not the safest place to be in the dark. The edge of a 300 foot cliff but if you want the shot. This is a 4 minute exposure.

Fernan Drifts

A cold night for a hike.

Jupiter Crossing

Just outside of Conrad, Montana on a cold night.

Monroe Street Bridge

A little night shot of the Monroe Street Bridge, Spokane Falls and the Washington Water Power Building.

Full Moon over Glacier

Two Medicine Lake

Reflections of Venus

Night time at the Iceberg Lagoon.

Lomagnupur mountain and the Aurora

A mild show from the Aurora next to Lomagnupur mountain in southern Iceland.
