The Green Deal

By Jim | Published December 14, 2021

Today’s post features a night photograph I captured over northeast Wyoming’s Devil’s Tower a few years ago. The green, mist-like sky is called “Green Airglow” (there also appears to be a small amount of red airglow). This airglow phenomenon was identified in 1868 by Swedish physicist Anders Angstrom, and scientists say is caused by photochemical […]

Head in the Clouds

By Jim | Published November 16, 2021

Today’s post features some morning landscape photos I captured in Glacier National Park (Montana) a few years ago.  Made me “homesick” for the mountains as I prepared this blog post!

Hot as a Firecracker!

Today’s post features a couple of landscape photographs I captured during one of my photo trips to South Dakota’s Badlands National Park.
