Playing with the OM-1's live composite mode while using my fisheye lens. The thin clouds created a surreal effect.

THREE (!!!) long-eared owls resting together as the sun goes down. These images are a heavy crop with Lightroom denoise as I didn't have enough focal length and the light was fading as sunset approached.

Take a ride along with my telescope as it tracks the winter sunrise low across the sky.

It has been a busy couple days for Earth's magnetic field as the sun has been pummeling us with material. With all this sunspot activity, it's easy to see why!

I came across this pair of birds in an unfrozen part of the lake and just assumed it was a pair of the same species. I later realized this was a male hooded merganser and male bufflehead chilling (literally) together.

Dive #2 with the OM-1! I set the AF limiter correctly and it's a good thing I did because there were tiny sea slugs EVERYWHERE.

PixInsight just added a new step for rejecting frames during the stacking process! My current intake process will filter out obvious things like clouds, but Frame Selection exposed a potential issue with my frames shot during the full moon. Sweet!

Horsehead and Flame Nebula are a rite of passage for any new camera gear, so I pointed my ToupTek585M at it and snapped away with L, R, G, and B filters.

First dive with my new Olympus OM-1 and of 2026! Nice surface conditions, freezing cold crystal clear water, and some good macro critters made for a nice dive!

Maybe the biggest snowflakes I've ever seen! The weather is all over the place today alternating between rain, freezing rain, and snow. What is weather like where you are?

Located between the constellations Orion and Gemini, Monkey Head Nebula is a large, colorful nebula is an excellent narrowband target.

My first sun/moon pair of 2026! The moon was 97% illuminated last night and then sun was captured this morning as it peeked up over my house.

Super quick read on the December recap since I only did a single dive. Great conditions on that one dive, but our weather has been so junky recently. Looking forward to getting out again soon!

I'm looking for some inspiration for how best to use my new Olympus 8mm fisheye lens. I'm not in love with the weird look of the trees in this image. Do you have a super wide angle shot you love? Please drop it in the comments!

A swan family (I believe two parents and a juvenile) on the lake as sunset approaches. I don't have a proper telephoto lens yet, so I had to crop this image in.

Captured with my Olympus OM-1 + 60mm macro lens

Hooray for astrophotography! Imaging opportunities have been few and far between recently, so I took deep sky pics last night and then a quick sun pic this morning. Good stuff!

Ice lily pads on Lake Cochituate! These shapes are formed when water freezes on top of a body of water with waves to break the ice into chunks as it forms. The edges are caused by the chunks bumping up against one another. Really cool!

This is a two panel mosaic of Dark Shark Nebula with about 2h on R, G, B and 4 h on L per panel. This is still very much underbaked and will need more exposure time, but it's starting to take shape.

My first cartoony dog nose pic with the fisheye lens! I didn't really slow down for this picture because I was pretty sure she was going to boop my lens in her excitement. We'll try again sometime when she's calmer.

We surfaced on a shore dive at Old Garden Beach to check our location only to come face to face with this crew of double-crested cormorants. I can only assume they were mocking my navigation skills.
