Gate to Heaven
Looking up toward the Gate to Heaven at Siena Cathedral. This magnificent cathedral contains one of the most interesting and mysterious mosaics on the floor of the entryway.

Mixture
Another image from Figure 8 island, recently processed to black and white. I was standing in the water with tripod for a 1s exposure. The tricky thing is keeping the tripod from sinking into the sand during that time. I liked how the water was swirling all around me in this shot, kinda like the vortex metaphor of daily life, not to get all philosophical but hey.

North Carolina Beach
Incoming waves on Figure 8 Island. This was in-camera-motion on a tripod, basically a slow and steady turn of the camera during a long exposure. No post-processing effects.

Cosmic Correspondence
Self-portrait under the Milky Way from Figure 8 Island.

We were looking for ghost crabs after dark when my daughter pointed out the Milky Way above. I decided to capture it the next night, but since there wasn't much foreground, I went for a self-portrait. The light from Wrightsville Beach was leaking in from the right, and wispy clouds were scattered through the sky.

This is a single exposure with the Fuji X-T1, 16mm at 2.0, ISO 1250, 20 seconds, and a bit of patience.

Tofino Milky Way
Tofino is magical all around, and has some of the darkest skies I've seen on the PNW coast. This night I was on the beach mostly alone aside from a bonfire or two, soaking in the silence and mystery and looking out across the whale tail shaped landscape of Chesterman's beach toward Frank island. The waves were glowing, bioluminescense, but I didn't realize it until later, after this photo, and I did manage to get a photo of that too.

Meet the Larch Family
I love this little family of larches, complete with babies, little kiddos, adults and maybe some grandparents. These are the fall colors in The Enchantment Lakes Wilderness in Central Washington, after a hike to about 7000 feet up into the alpine, and a couple of nights camping.

Unfortunately the light wasn't good for me, lots of clouds, and rain even. I tried to cut through some of it with filters and had time for a long exposure here while my buddy Neal rested by the lake like Tom Sawyer with some straw in his mouth. We were the only people around as far as I could see.
