Various and sundry, Milk Moon edition

By admin | Published: May 8, 2012

The full moon this last weekend was much talked-about as a supermoon – a moon near perigee in its orbit at the time of the full moon, making it about 10-15% brighter and larger than normal. I went up to Cadillac Mountain on Saturday night to photograph the rising full moon and there were quite [...]

Pyrotechnic Updates

By admin | Published: May 3, 2012

I’ve just made a pretty significant revision to my Pyrotechnic galleries on my website. This winter I was able to photograph another fireworks display in Camden harbor (and yes, it was snowing during the fireworks show) and I was able to create some new work about which I’m very excited. I also had the idea [...]

As part of my Adventures in Celestial Mechanics project, I was of course photographing the moonrise of the full moon. I chose Egg Moon for the name of this group of photographs, [...]

Worm Moon

By admin | Published: April 26, 2012

March’s full moon is known by many names, as all are full moons, but I’ve chosen Worm Moon for this year’s moon. (I plan on using other names for the full name for different years of photographing them, depending on which names best match the moon of that year, my images, and the conditions). I [...]

The Winds, The Seas, and The Stars

By admin | Published: April 23, 2012

Only the third link of this post is about photography, but I think many of you, like myself, are also interested in natural phenomena as well as in different ways of displaying visual information, and that sums up the appeal of the first two items in this post perfectly. If you’ve been bouncing around the [...]

Yesterday Maine-based astrophotographer John Stetson invited me to a shoot of a rare opportunity – photographing the passage of the International Space Station across the face of the sun (called a transit) from a location near Waterville, Maine. Basically, when everything lines up just right, you can see the silhouette of the space station (which [...]
