I actually took a moment to grab my camera the other day. It's kind of sad that doing so is on the rare side for me right now. I am SO close to being done with my room, which I hope means I'll get back into some kind of a normal routine, but I'm just… Continue reading Summer Sunset

Edge Of The Storm
I rarely get a good vantage of the storms that come through because of how we are situated. Last night, even though it isn't an awesome shot, it is still kind of impressive because the clouds were ominous looking.

Another Pink Sky
We were treated with another extremely showy sunset last night. Also with so much pink in the sky it seemed a little unreal. There was a big difference last night, though. All that gorgeous pink? It was in the east. I'm not sure I've ever seen a sky quite like it. On the horizon to… Continue reading Another Pink Sky
Spectacular Sunset
I very narrowly avoided missing this stunning show last night. There are times that I really hate the angle and positioning of my house and not having a window in a good position to show off the sunset. When BG and I stepped outside to take pictures, everything had a pink tinge to it. It… Continue reading Spectacular Sunset
Color Series: Blue Day 4
For anyone that wants to play along, my only suggestions (suggestions, not rules!) are: The color is the dominate focus in the image as opposed to a small spot in a lot of other colors. Drop a comment so I can follow along on your color journey. That's it! I hope you play along and… Continue reading Color Series: Blue Day 4
Color Series: Blue Day 1
This one is going to be a bit of a challenge for me since my usual photos are macro and of flowers and blue just isn't a color you often see in that area. We'll see how well I pull it off. For anyone that wants to play along, my only suggestions (suggestions, not rules!)… Continue reading Color Series: Blue Day 1
Bold January Sunset
It was a day behind our usual, but yesterday I spent the day getting all of our inside decorations taken down. It is always a little depressing seeing the house so bare again after a month of lights and colors. It was only the inside that got done. The outside is still buried in snow,… Continue reading Bold January Sunset
The Great Conjunction Of Jupiter And Saturn
BG and I wanted to try and get a glimpse of this event, so we set alarms and set up camp at a front window that was perfectly positioned for viewing. I'm going to admit to some extreme ignorance on this. I really had thought that when there was talk of Saturn being in line… Continue reading The Great Conjunction Of Jupiter And Saturn
Freckled Leaves
Too Dark O’Clock
Being up early enough to get a sunrise shot is the pits, but it looks like I'll get to see quite a few as long as I have contractors working. I'm going to be a zombie by the time this project is finished. Mornings are made even more difficult when I have to herd the… Continue reading Too Dark O’Clock
What’s Left At The End Of The Day
It is difficult not to be exceptionally angry today. I'm angry at the ignorance and the unwillingness of those that are supposed to be in charge to actually DO something productive. Yes, I could be talking on the larger scale as that absolutely applies as well, but I'm talking a little lower down the power… Continue reading What’s Left At The End Of The Day
Rainbowed Sunset Behind A Tree
I finally got my test results back yesterday afternoon. It took longer than the 24 hours I was originally told, but I got the expected negative so I'm good to go to take the meds I need to kick this bronchitis in the butt. Even better, I noticed that the amazing, saintly doctor I spoke… Continue reading Rainbowed Sunset Behind A Tree
Sunset Clouds and Reflections
I nearly missed this brilliant display last night. I managed to run out, nab these few shots and then the colors were already beginning to fade. While the colors were at their peak, they were just stunningly vivid. If I hadn't looked outside when I did, I would have completely missed it.
Twilight Lighthouse on Redbubble
I had so much fun with the Night Sky Silhouette piece I did a while back, I wanted to play some more. Sadly, it took me way too long to carve out the time to sit down and work at my computer, but I finally managed it! I'm SO thrilled by this one! Even more… Continue reading Twilight Lighthouse on Redbubble
The Moon And Mars
I completely would have missed this if Hubby hadn't commented on how cool the moon looked last night. I wasn't even aware you could see Mars that clearly and thought it was a plane at first. I actually had to look it up to figure out what I had seen. I don't think I've ever… Continue reading The Moon And Mars

NEOWISE And The Big Dipper
I honestly have no clue how well this image will show. If possible, click on it to make it bigger (or whatever to get it to fit in your screen as you need to see it all at once). I created this image from a photo I took while I was doing comet watch. The… Continue reading NEOWISE And The Big Dipper
Comet Watch: NEOWISE Part 2
I really wanted to see if I could manage to get shots of NEOWISE that were a bit better than my first attempt. I decided to use my wide angle lens instead of my zoom. They are much clearer shots, but obviously not nearly as close. I'm really pleased with them, though. There is something… Continue reading Comet Watch: NEOWISE Part 2
Comet Watch
These are a long way from being NASA quality, but I managed to get some shots of NEOWISE! Ever since I started seeing images of this comet, I wanted to see if I could get a shot of it. I've been trying to find it in the sky for the last couple of days, but… Continue reading Comet Watch
