The sun never stood a chance.

No clouds, no storm… just smoke. This eerie sunset was swallowed by thick haze drifting in from the Canadian wildfires.
The air was still, the light surreal. I’ve never seen the sky like this before.

A rusting steel handrail fades into a vibrant green blur, where industry meets nature. Walking this abandoned railroad, I find peace in the simple, forgotten things. #photography #AbandonedBeauty #NatureVsIndustry #RusticCharm #RailroadPhotography

I spent an entire morning watching this Osprey fishing the lake. 100's of photos later, he got his prize. And so did I!!

I have a large family of River Otters living on my property. This fella sure makes crayfish/crawfish/crawdads look delicious!!

After several years of trying to photograph Eagles, I was able to capture this Eagle after taking flight. in the past they were too far away, my shots were out of focus, and once I even forgot my memory cards after finding a tree filled with them! Finally...

It was amazing to spend a week with Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) a few weeks ago. And as luck would have it, I could see it from my back yard! Space is amazing and will always blow my mind.

This might just be my favorite shot of the year. Captured during Blue Hour, it’s a moment of pure peace. My dog, Samara, standing at the lake’s edge, watching the fading light.

It's been an impressive year for the Northern Lights so I thought this would make a good first post.

These were all taken on Drummond Island, a small northern Michigan paradise.
