Orion and Pleiades

The moon was just above the horizon but with an upcoming hiking / camping trip I wanted to make sure I was comfortable with the Canon 6dmk2 and Sigma 35 on my Vixen Polarie for some night sky imaging I’ve been planning. I shot from a park in the north end of Burlington, VT – with the lights from town and glow from the Moon I wasn’t expecting much – but have been pleasantly surprised.

Fall Back

Summit sunrise, from October 2017, but I have re-processed it. The journey continues.

Bolton Potholes

I scouted and photographed the Bolton Potholes this weekend. Short walk, literally behind a school. From below there is a wire / cable that crosses the creek, so I climbed up on the rocks for a better view. There is a road and houses up in the woods behind the house, including some power lines you can barely make out in my photos.

Each of these are multi frame panorama stitches. I am happy with the results for my first time at this location – and have a few ideas for another visit.

In another week, when color starts to peak I plan to make a trip back – I’ll be planning for an early to mid afternoon visit when the sun will better light the rocks and water.
