Finally a tiny break in the clouds!
Had fun this weekend shooting the Milky Way over at Leslie Gulch
What an awesome summer of Milky Way chasing its been for me, I’ve made some great new friends and covered a ton of ground. There’s only a month or so left this far north to capture the core before she slumbers for the winter, I will be getting out at least a couple more times in hopes to get a few more goodies to stock pile for a long winter of editing. I snagged this image last new moon in Grand Teton National Park. Battling severe smoke and solar wind (the green airglow) you see in the image, but I couldn’t pass up this reflection shot. Here you see Mars on the left and a bit of the core is muddled behind the smoke but I kind of like the effect it gave. Being in bear country at night definitely gives it more of an adventurous edge, luckily we had protection but I don’t recommend going to these places at night alone without bear spray or a firearm.
