comet

As some of you know, I was kind of following the Comet Neowise all over. It wasn't intentional really, but it just sort of happened. :) I shot it in Arches NP, the Tetons, and several times in Rocky Mountain NP. This is one of those times were I shot it up at RMNP and using this cool wall area...

I was trail running in RMNP up by Fern Lake 2 evenings ago. The forecast here has been for clouds, and it has been cloudy. So no chance to capture the comet Neowise at night yet. But I brought my camera's just in case. As I was trail running the clouds were opening up to the West and North...

A week ago I ran over to Arches National Park for the night as I have mentioned already. My hope was that I could get Comet Neowise passing through an arch. It sounded like an easy task since there seems like there are so many Arches in Arches NP that it should certainly be easy! Well, after I...

I had spent the afternoon at RMNP hiking with the 6 grandkids up to Emerald Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park on Friday. The 2 and 4 year olds had some issues with their short legs and falling going uphill from the Bear Lake starting point, so I ended up along with my dayback and camera...

Well, this night 2 weeks ago unfolded with my having decided I wanted to photography a comet! :) It seems there are several of these scattered (comets) through the night sky on any given night. When trying to find my goal, Comet C/2017 T2 I manually aligned to where I thought it was and found...
