First Aurora of the 2025-26 season.

We were out of state last week and missed the big show, but I got to shoot my first aurora of the season last night between 9pm and 12:30am. Nothing spectacular, but still fun to shoot. Last aurora season was a bust for me, so hoping for a better season this winter. click on images for full-screen.

OMG, Baby Lynx!!!

One of the most remarkable animal visits we’ve ever had here at the house tonight. Our neighbor texted that a lynx was headed down their driveway towards our place. I grabbed the camera and got to the top of our drive just as momma lynx and baby crossed the road over to our other neighbors. I followed them up and wow, more babies showed up! We’ve never seen this many at once. What an incredible treat. Way too many pictures as usual, but this could be one of those once in a lifetime events.
