Earlier this year I had a lot of fun working with a client in the mountains of eastern California on astronomy landscape techniques. One of the highlights of the workshop was stopping by the CARMA array and photographing star trails. Temperatures were well below freezing being that we were at an elevation of 7000 feet, but the view was so incredible it made standing in the freezing cold a secondary thought. Reviewing this photo it has me pumped up to share the magic of night photography and astronomy landscapes in my up coming workshops in Death Valley and the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico. I still have spots available in each so if interested be sure to sign up sooner than later.

Your blogs are informative and your photos awesome! I am Following you on Google +. I know you’re busy but I have some pictures that are pretty good on http://bekkieswonderland.blogspot.com/ . Maybe you could check out my blogs/photos and Follow me on Blogger. I’m curious as to why you are with Google + but use WordPress to blog on. I feel Blogger is much better and easy to use when teamed up with Windows Live Writer especially when posting photos. I blogged on your post Photographers: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly. You are so right! I hope you don’t mind as I also put links to alot of your sites and gave you all the credit. After all, it’s your work, I just admire it very much! Catch you on Google + sometime!
Thank you Jim I didn’t see this until today. You take such beautiful photos, I have another website you might be interested in http:bekkiestheovervieweffect.blogspot.com/. I would love to do a blog on your some of your time-lapsed photos of stars or planets moving across the sky. Actually I could post the one on both websites and G+ when I do it. All I need is your permission. Send me the pics you would want me to use and the info through Bekkieswonderland@gmail.com and I’ll do it. I will even provide a back link to wherever you want it.
