Been a long time between posts - I felt inspired to post these from last week's shoot. ATM The Milky Way is setting in the western sky around midnight. The star trails shot comprises a 4 hour set of 30 second exposures aimed at the south celestial pole. #nightscapes #milkyway #stars #photography

Just finished a clean up of my subscribed podcasts that have become unlistenable due to heavy advertising and sponsored content posing as real content. Feels good. Any recommendations for new ones I can try? #podcasts #Enshittification
