A few new pictures on my website. We had a huge fog bank roll in yesterday morning and stay with us all day and even into this morning. Everything frosted up including a bicycle that had been leaned up against the building. When I took the shots it was FREEZING, my lower lip kept freezing [...]

Look to the right and you will find a Time Zone section. Now you will know what time it is here vs where you are. If your time zone is not represented, please let me know.

A fresh new look. Hopefully a little easier to read and navigate. A few more options on the right. Also make sure you put that mouse pointer over words that look different, you might get a surprise…

This is when the sun reflects off Iridium satellites and hits the ground locally, appearing as a bright spot in the sky for a few seconds. They can be predicted very accurately. Tonight looks very good for us to see an iridium flare. I will try and get a picture or two. They only last [...]

Took a trip out to Pegasus for a working boondoggle [actually to take pictures of the final sunset]. Captured a few and posted them on my flickr site. Brody took this of me. We will have about another month or so of slowly dimming sunlight, then darkness for about two months. Sunrise is scheduled for [...]

This will be the last week that we will have the sun above the horizon line. On Friday (your Thursday) we will have no sun, only a day of dawn and dusk. We have had a tremendous full moon over the last few days. The picture above was not taken by me but another local [...]

Its amazing that it has already been two months. Time goes by pretty fast. Lots of transitions have happened over the past two months. Besides the amazing fact of just coming some 11,000 miles around the world to the bottom of the earth, landing and setting foot on a huge chunk of ice next to [...]

Pretty normal day around here. Wind is blowing, temps are dropping, feels like Christmas should be just around the corner. But no. Added a few things to the site, most visibly the time on the right. That is what time it is here. Also under photography, down on the right, are two new sections called [...]
