Once or twice a year the moon rise is visible through this arch and this year the stars finally aligned for me to capture it! Well the moon did... You get it.

I guess I'm reposting this recent photo for the #blueskyartshow since it's #arch themed. Arches national Park has the highest density of natural arches in the world as far as I know, so maybe I have a chance lol. #photography #landscapes

Balance Rock with the Milkyway. Taken at 45mm because I love the way the sky looks at this focal length.

2 different takes at Balance Rock. Which do you prefer?

I broke my ankle a couple weeks ago so I can't get to many of the places I'd like, but I did manage to hobble over to this nice little Juniper tree!

I went out to capture this image for a second time which I think turned out much better than the first, but what do you think? Keep in mind no light painting was used and isn't allowed in Utah National Parks.

I've had this 85mm lens lying around that I've been meaning to try out in an Astro setting. Finally got around to it! The extended focal length makes the milkyway look so large in comparison to Balance Rock. #astrophoto #landscapephoto #nationalparks #nightsky #milkywayphotography #art #nature

Went out last night and it was so windy and cold! Hopefully it warms up before Moab's "season" starts...

I made a last minute decision to go out the other night on a full moon. I wanted to see what some star trails looked like under the "not so dark skies." It was a good experience as it always is but I wish I could have scouted the location first to get a better composition.

Just scrolling through some old #astrophotos. This is The North window in arches. I was on a tour so only had time for a single exposure. I can't wait to take more time for personal projects this year 🤞

Another star trail shot from outside of Moab, Utah. Winter gives me a good opportunity to get to the projects I've been neglecting📸
