Little doodle to announce I'll be hanging out at Point Pelee National Park for a short art residency!! I'm hoping to do lots of sketching and photography during my time there next week, all that will work towards a final piece to be created by the Fall!!

Also because I think it's neat, here's a side-by-side of a single exposure vs the stacked image. Although you can't make out the dust, you can see how it blocks out light in the single shot!!
