Do you have any night photos of the stars? Of the Milky Way? Please post them in this thread. If this hits off well, this may turn into a monthly Feature we do in conjunction with our Waterfall Wednesdays. Here is mine to start it off. One from Joshua Tree from a few years ago. I mainly shoot...

There is an area not far from The Wave that has these really cool honeycombed rocks. All comments are welcome, Jim

Back in the Bisti Badlands area, as I was hiking in for sunrise I noticed this one last star in the sky. I couldn't stop for long as I didn't have much time before sunrise, but I did take about a dozen shots from a few different compositions. All comments are welcome, Jim

Barry loves to travel before Christmas. Barry loves to call me to meet him places before Christmas. Barry missed out on this sunset because he lives in Arkansas before Christmas. I should retire from photography and become a poet... :) So this particular year, Barry wanted to meet up in...

This is from south of Bisti Badlands in New Mexico last year, the back story for this image is described in this previous thread. http://www.focalworld.com/index.php?threads/morning-glory.599/ It was an exhilarating sunrise, and actually one in which I am now glad I was a bit late getting to...

A few miles south of Bisti in New Mexico is another really cool area of even stranger rock formations. This was taken recently on my way back from fall colors in Colorado. There wasn't any real clouds for sunrise, but there was some moisture in the air, and some really neat Crepuscular Rays that...

My very first post on this forum, and the location I desired to visit for years. Looking forward to your critique and comments, Sasha.

Badwater, in Death Valley, and its amazing salt polygons are a sight to behold and offer never ending inspiration for different compositions. Leica SL, Voigtlander 15mm v. III, Formatt-Hitech Firecrest filters. Thanks for viewing, best regards Vieri

Beautiful Mesquite Dunes, in Death Valley (USA), are always a great source of inspiration for me and lend themselves to long exposure abstract images perfectly. Leica SL, Voigtlander 15mm, Formatt-Hitech Firecrest filters. Thanks for viewing, best regards Vieri

I will be leading my regular yearly Workshop in Death Valley between January 29-February 2, 2018. To ensure you the best photographic experience, my regular Workshops have an extremely limited attendance of maximum THREE participants, and they tend to get sold out pretty quickly...

Appreciate the invite to the community. Look forward to building online and perhaps in-person relationships with some of you. This is a shot I took in May of this year. It was my 2nd attempt at shooting the Milkyway. My 10 year old daughter was out there helping me at 1AM too, so a little...
