Spent some time in the garden this morning.
Garden Walk
The wee Pup
New addition to the family. Abandoned in Burlington, VT, dropped off at the police station. Impounded where we board our other dog, Jen met this pup upon returning from NYC. We played the waiting game / paperwork game / background check game and were thrilled to be able to bring her home. Bumble Bee, BB, or Bee is what the girls named her.
Bokehnacea
Testing out a wonderful new lens – a Sigma Art 35mm f1.4 – the the garden made for a good first subject.

Star Trails, Timber Frame
I was asked by New Energy Works to scope out one of their latest timber frame projects in the Adirondacks and see if it would be a good candidate for combing my passions of night sky photography and timber framing.
The frame isn’t quite finished – it is a band stand in a community park – but I made the best of the existing conditions to create this image – 113 frames blended in Photoshop take from a fixed tripod as the Earth slowly rotated under the stars.
Milky Way, Sugar Hill Reservoir, Vermont
A slight edit and re-processing of my Milky Way over Sugar Hill image. Learning so much, so quickly on how to bring out the night sky.
Tracked Milky Way
I re-processed my first attempt at tracking for night sky shots.
The sky is very very very large.
We are very very very small.
Billions of stars. And all that space in between.
Mind bending.
Sunrise – Spine of the Northern Green Mountains
Captured on my drive home from capturing the Milky Way, the sun just below the horizon – Mt. Mansfield on the left, Camel’s Hump on the right.
