I planned for this shot to have a nice wee shape, with dark skies across the top. The trouble with Aurora though, they don't listen! So much bigger and more intense than expected!

You know.. I'm a country boy.
My home is the mountains, not the city.
So while visiting an urban friend, they showed me this old tunnel, and claimed these were railway tracks.

The Flat Earthers are wrong.
At the Edge of the World, there's no sudden drop, or barrier of Ice.
There's the Wall. Pulsating, Twisting. Blinding.
Heaven help the Mortal who dares approach, for there is no return.

A flaming letter Z carved into the sky, calling to action those who would protect the oppressed against an unjust tyrant!
... Or maybe it's just pretty lights 🙂

A lot of people asked about yesterday's photo of the lenticulars and the anticrepuscular ray so I thought I'd share this close up of them.
Lenticulars are my favourite clouds :)

Here's a shot of something I've never captured before. Anticrepuscular rays from a full moon. The light slipped between two huge lenticular clouds, created a stunning and most unusual sight.

Well I'm a lucky fella
Lady's singin' a capella
A jazzy tune to dance the night away
With reds, and blues and greens
she sings exquisite scenes,
She lights the world up bright as it were day

I was chatting yesterday with a follower about the big skies we get here, and today this image came up in the FB memories, from 11 years ago today.
I thought you'd like to see it. :) Big skies indeed.

One of the great things I love about living in the shadow of our tallest mountain, and one of our largest lakes, is the sky.

One of the things that struck me about travelling Route 66 was the ghost towns. Now, I'd planned to visit some Ghost Towns, but I was thinking 1800's, not 1950s. The great new freeways of the 50's bypassed town after town, and just like that, the lifeblood of tourism dried up.

Wayyyy off in distance, completely ignoring the dramatic skies above, a single little puff of cloud toot toots its way across the mountains.

I had this idea that I could capture an interesting image of an aurora along the highway. It didn't really come out, but I did like the look of this one truck that came along.

Torrents frozen fast,
Ephemeral built to last,
Chaotic carven land,
Filigrees of coarse sand,
Gossamer In Stone,
And Loving, all alone.
