There are so many different image variations of the Horsehead Nebula out there that it was tough to think of something unique. And while this isn’t the only HSSRGB image of IC 434 out there, it seems not to be shot too often. This was by far the toughest image I’ve had to process to date.

Hey folks. I've tried a few times this year to reignite my passion for photography, but I think I just got burned out. However, this fall, I decided to get back into deep-space #astrophotography, and wanted to start sharing some of those photos here. Here's 6 hours on the Embryo Nebula (NGC 1333).

It's been a minute. Here's a photo of some cool weather we had this evening. I was out on a mission to shoot some video, so this was taken with a 35mm Cine lens on an APS-C body (A6700). #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #clouds #weather #colorado #blackandwhite #bnw

‪Ok. Still on a drone photography kick with the Air 3S. Here's a shot from a scouting mission this morning. I'm going to have to go back for a higher-res pano when the sky is better. #photography #drone #dronephotography #colorado #landscapephotography

Took the drone up to St. Vrain Canyon today for a little pre-sunset session. The goal was to experiment with stitching the 12MP RAW files from the Air 3S's 70mm lens. This is made up of 12 images using the neato "Free Pano" mode. #photography #drone #dronephotography #colorado #landscapephotography

The famous Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado at dusk. There is so much cool history associated with this place, including being the setting for Stephen King's book "The Shining". Apparently it was just sold for a cool $400 million. #photography #colorado #estespark

I don't normally take landscape photos at f/2.8, but I wanted to test out a new lens and really liked the result. We had some interesting weather yesterday which made for some good evening light. #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #nature #naturephotography #colorado #blackandwhite #bnw

It was nice and foggy this morning at Walden Ponds in Boulder. This is an 8 second exposure. I have no idea how the goose on the island stood still for that long... 🐦 #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #nature #naturephotography #colorado #blackandwhite #bnw

Hey folks! It's been a while. I took a bit of a hiatus from the camera and social media, but I'm back in action. Had a great hike this morning in Boulder with such a beautiful morning. The clouds were weaving in between the Flatirons, which was a mood. #landscapephotography #colorado #mountains

This afternoon I tried a 720nm IR filter on my stock X-T5, and the results are way better than I expected! The waterfall shots are both 8 minute exposures. The mountain scene was 2 minutes. #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #nature #naturephotography #colorado #blackandwhite #infrared

Maybe it's because I'm pretty new here, but one of the things I love about BlueSky is that I seem to stumble upon amazing artists I haven't seen, like Mark, every day. Here's to hoping that trend continues!

I almost didn't go out this morning because I didn't want to get out of my warm bed. Watching the fast moving clouds play with the changing light and color on these peaks was well worth it, though, despite my frozen fingers. #landscapephotography #colorado #mountains #sunrise
A long exposure smears the clouds over the mountains. The sun rising from behind paints the peaks with warmth as the frozen lake below provides an icy contrast.

How many of you are printing at home? I’m pretty new to the game and have been working on dialing in settings for B&W images. Really liking the Aurora Art White 300 paper from my Red River Paper sample pack. Anyone else have a go-to? #photography #printing #blackandwhite

Sherri's phenomenal monochrome work is such an inspiration. This is a good reminder to slow down, and take a long moment to find what about a scene really moves you - before taking the camera out.

I finally ended up getting the Nik Silver Efex plugin. I resisted it for the longest time, even after trying the trial a long time ago. I didn't quite grasp the amount of control it gives you over the tones in monochrome images. Well, I'm now a believer. Here's a re-work of the last shot I posted.
A steep, wooded hill rises in the foreground. In the background a rocky mountain peak is visible through the heavy clouds.

I've been digging in the Archives as I'm working on finally finishing my monochrome-focused website. This was one of my favorites from a trip to Vancouver Island last year. #photography #nature #naturephotography #mountains #blackandwhite #bnw #monochrome #vancouverisland #canada
The clouds part in just the right spot to show the tip of a mountain's peak behind a tree covered hill.

Hey photo people! I've seen a few posts around using image Alt Tags as a way to circumvent the post character limit. If you aren't aware, Alt Tags are an accessibility tool, meant to provide a description of an image for visually and learning-impaired users via screen-readers. #bluesky #photography

I’ve avoided most social media over the years. I didn’t do a whole lot on Instagram, was never on Twitter, but I really enjoy Bluesky. Lists like Andy’s are making it easy to find great people!
