Found a drip at the base of the dryer duct, staining at the roof termination, and someone’s attempt at a spray foam miracle. Condensation or roof leak? You tell me. #homeinspection #homeinspector #dryerduct #atticleak

Tapping into your home HVAC to cool the garage? No return, no insulation, and no sense. Fire separation? Gone. Comfort? Also gone. There are better ways—like using a fan or wearing a jacket.

I was just trying to inspect a gas fireplace.
That's it. But inside... was a wasp. At first, I did what any reasonable adult would do: declared it an enemy of the state. But then, I started feeling bad for him. #homeinspection #gasfireplace #wasprescue #homeinspector #duesouthbrad #darkknightenergy

Meet IC 434, the glowing backdrop that makes the Horsehead Nebula possible. This emission nebula, lit by Sigma Orionis, turns a dark dust cloud into one of the most iconic sights in the night sky. Happy New Year!🎊

Tonight I imaged the Rosetta Nebula (NGC 2237). This massive star-forming region is about 5,200 light-years away. Its intricate structure of gas and dust resembles a blooming rose.
Merry Christmas!

’Tis the season to be freezing. Tonight, I imaged the Christmas Tree Cluster. The cluster is part of a larger star-forming region, including the Cone Nebula, which gives it that iconic Christmas tree shape.

The Bubble Nebula
Located about 7,100 light-years away in the constellation Cassiopeia, the Bubble Nebula is a “bubble” of glowing gas and dust was formed by the intense radiation and stellar winds of a young, hot star at its center.

Did you know there’s a nebula that looks like Pac-Man? The Pac-Man Nebula (NGC 281), located about 9,200 light-years away in the Cassiopeia constellation.
This nebula is a massive star-forming region, with young, powerful stars shaping its unique mouth.

Spent some time imaging M33, the Triangulum Galaxy. At about 2.73 million light-years away, it’s the third-largest galaxy in our Local Group, after the Milky Way and Andromeda.

The final Supermoon of the year is here—dubbed the Beaver Moon (yes, go ahead, get the jokes out of your system). Miss this one, and you’ll be waiting until October 7, 2025, to catch another Supermoon lighting up the night sky.
