Red Canyon Light Art

This was a fun time with my wife, Jena; son-in-law, Chris; and grandaughter Melia, who painted this red rock with light as we exposed for 15 seconds. That bright object is Venus, and the grouping of stars above Venus is Pleiades (aka Seven Sisters). We went through several trial-and-error attempts before this shot. Taken with a Canon 550D, 15 sec exposure, ISO 200, f3.5 at 18mm. Taken at the Red Canyon area just west of Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah.
Thanks, Melia for the excellent job.

Snow Storm Art

Here are a few snow storm pictures taken by our security camera last night.

Rainbow from the Dining Room Table

A few DVDs arranged on our dining room table. Reflections from normal room lighting. Picture taken with a Canon 550D, Tamron 18-270mm lens, 1/2 sec exposure, F22, ISO 800.

Reflections on a Night Stand

I woke at 2 AM, and looked at the hotel nightstand for the alarm clock, and saw this. The yellow alarm clock face reflected through a bottle of water. Taken with a Lumix, 15 sec exposure. Good night!

M42 in Orion - From the front yard

The neighbors thought I was crazy. But, not bad for almost a full moon lighting the sky. Taken with a Canon 550D, Tamron 200mm lens, 2 secs per image, ISO 3200, f5.6. 100 images stacked in DeepSkyStacker.  The picture below is the same as the one above, except the neighboring stars and other space "objects" are also identified. Thanks to the program called UniMap from www.LarryO.org
