I post pictures of the weather, night sky, and landscapes. I'll occasionally deviate from this. Politics-free.

Wow… I never would have thought I’d get a shooting star with Aurora but last night blew away my expectations. We had such bright and tall pillars out here near Omaha Nebraska. I love this shot so much 🥹

It's not the best photo, but I finally got to see the Aurora from an airplane. Taken somewhere close to Greenland.

"White Lightning"
A March thunderstorm sending bolts over the melting ice of Lake Huron near the Bruce Peninsula with the shoreline lined with nature’s rare blue ice sentinels.

Not only was Saturday windy at ground level, strong winds aloft allowed towering clouds to become sculpted lenticular clouds as winds rushed past wowing people from #VanIsle to #Texada Island.

Check out these pics captured by Texada’s Deniece Suleyma
