The Potholes of Escalante
The Potholes of Escalante. I took this last spring and since then this spot has gained popularity (unfortunately, lol). This was a night with a beautiful sky but the wind was blowing and creating some motion artifact in the branches. Almost a perfect night, but not quite. Anyway, the darkness minimizes the apparent motion and that helps, but it also blew sand into my eyes and made the night very uncomfortable. Single exposure. There is a light in the pothole and one above and to the left. (Low Level Lighting)

Astronauts and Aliens to Witches and Wizards!
Hi! Here's something different. Anyone interested in a Fantasy Astrophotography Workshop? This would be 2-3 days in an "otherworldly" location. We would capture beautiful landscapes under the Milky Way with fantasy characters in costume including Astronauts (in spacesuits), Aliens, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Witches, Wizards, Steampunk, Medieval, etc. I will provide the mentioned costumes, but if anyone has a great costume that will look exotic in an "otherworldly" setting then you are welcome to bring it. This will be a great chance to learn Low Level Lighting and share some fantasy techniques. If you are interested please contact me. I am trying to see if there is enough interest to organize a workshop during the July New Moon. There are several possible locations depending on interest.

Thanks for all the kind support over the last year, it is much appreciated! A big thank you to the wonderful Flickr family!
