This is literally the only good thing that came from all of the smoke from the wildfires. I was taking the trash out the other day and saw the sun setting down thru the trees and smoke I ran in the house, confirming to Amaya that I’m crazy, slapped a zoom lens on my camera and ran back out. I clicked this off in a hurry from the driveway because it’s was mere seconds from ducking behind the power lines. I wasn’t going to do much with it but it turned out pretty cool! Thoughts? Fingers crossed that’s it for the smoke season this year!
These stars have graced this meadow for hundreds of thousands if not millions of years and this cabin for well over a hundred years, I was just lucky to be here with a friend for a few hours on a Saturday night. I was also extra lucky to catch this Iridium Flare which is the flying saucer looking thing in the image that is actually sunlight being reflected off of a satellite back to earth, not rare by any means but cool to catch in an image! Thanks for checking out one of my personal favorite images to date,
I had another epic star chasing blitz this last weekend. Got to know some great people even better and also got to meet some other really cool humans, sadly none of us got abducted like we had hoped to 👽maybe next time. Huge shouts to @derekvculver for putting together an awesome meetup and for being a great dude in general. This was a view from our camp in the #alabamahills I did a 12 min star trail exposure and was super happy that it turned out, might’ve been the only 12 minutes out there that someone didn’t flash their red lamp or flashlight. Lol Big shouts to all the other chasers and artists I met out there we definitely need to do it again but for multi days next time.
