Just bailed on X. I was an early adopter in its early months, and it was such a fun platform before becoming infected with politicization.
Anyway, here's last April's total solar eclipse. Photographed with Ektar 100 film and my trusty Minolta XD-11, and lots of guidance from @danfalk.bsky.social!

Monowi, Nebraska, is a unique and fascinating place, known as the smallest incorporated town in the United States, with a population of just ONE person. Elsie Eiler, 92, is the sole resident, mayor, librarian, bartender, and general caretaker.

Protip: if you "forget to leave" when Pompeii closes, it's possible to have the entire UNESCO site to yourself and capture history without thousands of tourists being in your photos. It was a dream come true!

The final launch of Space Shuttle Discovery. 🚀
It's still one of the greatest experiences of my life watching and FEELING the launch!

A mix of the first and second times I was able to sneak into the Baikonur Cosmodrome and photograph the abandoned Soviet Buran space shuttles. 🚀 They've been abandoned here for almost 30 years!

A rural doctor's clinic in Japan that was abandoned in 1977. It was like visiting a museum time capsule.
It's one thing I've loved about exploring in Japan over the past 13 years – minimal looting or vandalism.

Michigan Central Station is one of the greatest renovations in modern history. Abandoned and decaying for 30 years when Ford bought the building in 2018 and restored it to its former glory.

I've really never liked living in Toronto, but sometimes the city can be quite photogenic from prohibited angles.

This is one of 15 fire control towers built as part of Fort Miles during World War II. They were built along the coast to defend the Delaware Bay and River from a potential German attack.

An abandoned DeLorean! Great Scott!
I photographed this classic from the 1980s on a side street in Anchorage, Alaska. It's been parked in this spot, unmaintained, for almost 20 years.

Pictured is the abandoned Energia-M rocket at the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
I would've preferred taking the elevator, but the building has been unmaintained for almost 30 years!
