This was taken at Yellowstone near the northeast entrance near a closed picnic area that we literally happened upon on a perfect night. There were some animals in the area, which made getting the shot an adventure. To me this shot has everything: A stream, a mountain, and a pool with the stars reflecting in it. I doubt I will ever be there again, and probably could not find it anyway. But it was a special location.

During the Leonids this November, only 1 meteor was captured, but I was not skunked ! The air glow and green tint of the summer night sky in the Oregon desert makes for colorful images. This image even captured a small meteor. Looking forward to what 2026 will bring!
