Psalm 8:3-4 - I've always been a fan of the night sky, with many all-night outings for aurora borealis (northern lights), comets, meteor showers, atmospheric optics and both partial and total lunar & solar eclipses. I'm thankful to have witnessed many of these spectacular and rare displays and to have come away with some memorable photos and experiences.

This page lists all of my astrophotography events and trips.
