Wooden Shoe Arch is one of Canyonlands’ quieter, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it gems. Found along the Island in the Sky Road near Upheaval Dome, it’s low, compact, and subtle—nothing like the park’s big arches. Its name comes from its shoe-like shape.

Hubble image of Arp 221.

Arp 221 is an interacting trio of disk galaxies. To the right is what is probably a large lenticular galaxy, with a series of shells that are caused by the gravitational interactions or a past merger.

A greyscale image of three disk galaxies arranged in a triangle. To the left is the largest galaxy, likely a lenticular galaxy, which has a bright center and a series of shells, which appear as arc-like glowing features with sharp outer edges. A few dark dust lanes appear in this outer part of the disk. The large galaxy overlaps with the galaxy to the right, which is also probably a lenticular galaxy. It has a bright center surrounded by a hazy disk. A faint curving feature, either a spiral arm or a tidal tail, emerges at about 6 o'clock and curves counterclockwise around the galaxy. The third galaxy, the smallest of the three, is below the other two. It's center is just below the center of the left galaxy. It has a bright center, a central bar structure, and two clearly defined spiral arms. A bright foreground star is above the right galaxy, and has large diffraction spikes which overlap with the galaxies. The image has a noticeable amount of detector noise which has not been removed. The black background of space is dotted with stars and small background galaxies.

I love painting colorful skies like this. It’s a mind cleanser. Painting is a time for me to be alone under the spell of the brush. It’s easy to mentally escape into the places that I’m painting. I hope you enjoy the results as much as I enjoyed painting it.

A scene of breathtaking majesty in South Africa's Cape Province as the setting sun paints beautifully radiating clouds in intense color, while humid ocean air turns into clouds above distant coastal mountains.

I'm mostly just here to share the beauty of our world. #PortfolioDay
A black and white image of a supercell thunderstorm at night with pancake-stacked structure and lightning protruding out from the clouds in a few directions. A clear, starry sky sits to the left, and a gravel road extends out to the horizon. An erupting volcano. A black spatter cone with a gap in the front has lava fountaining out, hundreds of feet into the air, smacking against the cone, and flowing along a snaking lava river toward the camera. A plume of gas rises into the air with mostly cloudy sky in the background. An image taken of Colorado's Maroon Bells from the still lake before it. In the foreground is the glass lake mirroring the landscape and sky above. A long log on the water reaches out from the left of the frame toward its center. On the other end of the lake is a lush green forest, with the forest stretching up the steep hills that bracket the image. Sitting right in the center of those hills are the Marron Bells - mountain peaks - partially coated in snow, and bathed in the saturated orange glow of the just-rising Sun. Overhead are blue skies with numerous puffy white clouds, some of which are still in the shadow of other mountains. A vertical image of comet Neowise. The nucleus of the comet rests at the bottom center, with a white dust tail stretching across the frame toward the top right corner, and the blue ion tail pointing toward the top left corner. Numerous stars dot the background. A very thin layer of orange clouds sit horizontally across the middle of the frame.

A Blue Wave butterfly (Myscelia cyaniris) resting with wings open at the Butterfly Pavilion in Westminster, Colorado. I kept the background subdued so the blue pattern could quietly take center stage.

A Blue Wave butterfly (Myscelia cyaniris) rests with its wings fully open on a textured rock at the Butterfly Pavilion in Westminster, Colorado. Bright electric-blue bands stretch across dark wings, with subtle white spots near the edges and softly muted stone in the background.

A cinematic take on the moon, framed by bare branches and deep negative space. Shot long and intentionally soft, using light to define form instead of detail.

If this caught your eye, you’re welcome to share it.

Bare tree branches cut across a softly glowing moon, framed by deep black negative space. The branches appear as dark silhouettes, their shapes emphasized by the moonlight rather than fine detail.

A scene of vast proportions in Canada's Yukon, the foothills of the Ogilvie mountains, covered in colorful autumn tundra, rejoice in beautiful dappled light. For scale, note the trees on the foreground ridge.
