Blessed to capture Condors flying over the Andes.
In the second mountain range image there is a single condor flying over the peaks of Mount Fitz Roy. (tough to see on mobile)
Mount Fitz Roy is known as Cerro Chaltenbin the Tehuelche language (which means โsmoky mountainโ) and is almost always covered with clouds.
The mountain is named in honor of Robert Fitz Roy, the captain of Charles Darwinโs second expeditions in South America,
The first image is also one of my favorite shots of Cerro Torre and Mount Fitz Roy together. Two iconic mountains in the Southern Patagonian Ice Field.

I keep getting blown away by the gifts from this land.
We are blessed to experience an amazing firefly / lightning bug 'show' every June.
Here's my first 'functional' capture. Working on improving this for sure
Every night for a month and then... gone
Hope you get to enjoy this wherever you are.

Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there. ๐
Sharing some fun from last week jumping with some legends over the Mediterranean.
In the one image where there are 4 people (3 and a photographer) between the photographer and the other 2, they have made 40,000 skydives. (I'm the rookie in blue ๐)
What an opportunity ๐๐

I was asked to share a few more shots from my trip to Menorca.
small hodge-podge.:
* sunset at a lighthouse
* sunrise at a different lighthouse
* light painting in a cove
* lighthouse at 2am with Milkyway
* the same lighthouse with Milkyway -shot further away
* The last one I included is a strange Star Trails shot (it's funky). The circular trails were cut off by clouds moving in during the shoot.
I learned a lot during this experience. blessed to be learning from the BEST.
Which, if any, speak to you and why?
Abundant Blessings

jumping out over the Mediterranean is so yummy.๐
Learning from the best is such a blessing ๐

So when I mentioned in the last post 'Here I grow again' ... I meant it.
Blessed to be learning from the BEST in their craft at the PhotoPills camp in Menorca, Spain this week. Multiple masters in various fields of photography.
Last night I had the amazing opportunity to learn from and shoot with Kim and Eric Parรฉ who are masters of 'Light Painting'
Here are a few shots from last night. (no AI, not photoshopped- creative art captured via camera)
Deep gratitude for this opportunity. ๐๐
Tonight's workshops are Seascape and Milkyway...

My new favorite image from our recent Patagonia trekking trip. Ooohhh the night sky in the mountains of Patagonia ๐๐
This is a vertical panorama of the galactic core over our campsite (for that evening).
Full transparency this is a screenshot of the actual image as it's too large to upload here, so it's lost some of its quality yet you'll get the perspective.
