Last night was the first clear evening in weeks, and no moon! Beautiful starry skies, but such cold hands!! 🥶 🧊 Here’s a little reminder of warmer summer days and birds gathering breakfast in the garden. ☀️

Enjoy your weekend!

Little stoat having a look around our garden. They change the color of their coat in the winter to mostly white, though I haven’t seen any this winter yet... This pic was taken at the end of July earlier this year.

Top nine from 2020, but with only 1 pic actually taken in 2020 in this grid - the one from the Cliffs of Moher, taken 2 weeks before the 💩 hit the fan with covid19. All the others are from my recent archives. 🤷🏻‍♂️
.
This year I’ll be focusing a lot more on improving my astrophotography, as it is a genre that I can more frequently shoot from my backyard. A few trips are indeed planned, but there’s no telling when travel will resume as before. I think it may be a while...

Dashing through the snow...

A few pics of our doggies Taiko and Yuma playing in our first “real” snowfall in 2 winters. About 30cm of the white stuff came down today! 🐾 ❄️ ⛄️.
.
Snow always provides a nice backdrop for some action pics!
.
I’ve been quiet on IG lately - enjoying some down-time with the family. Hope you’re doing the same!! 🥂🥃 🍻

First attempt at deep sky photography after gettin

First attempt at deep sky photography after getting a star tracker. Haven’t seen a star since the full moon two weeks ago, but last night there was a short window of opportunity before clouds rolled in again. I needed an easy target high in the sky...so here is Pleiades / seven sisters.
.
Last night wasn’t so much about the result but rather about getting all the bits and pieces right when setting up the tracker and aligning it for precisely tracked long exposures. The tracking was perfect and I could easily go for 2-3 minutes I think, at lower ISOs.
.
This composite is a stack of 16 images at 90 seconds each (1000 ISO), with Nikon z6 and the kit (!) 24-70mm f4 lens (at 70mm), with heavy crop. Looking forward to getting some images with faster, longer lenses.
.
Stacked with Starry Sky Stacker with 3 dark frames and then processed in Photoshop. I’m quite decent in Photoshop, but I need to improve my space processing skills... it’s just not the same as wildlife! Nevertheless, not a bad first effort I think.

No Geminids for me tonight due to heavy cloud cove

No Geminids for me tonight due to heavy cloud cover, so I’m counting on others to take some great shots of the biggest meteor show of the year. 💫 ☄️
.
.
Instead, here’s a 180 degree milky pano of about 10 images. I posted this a while back but in the meantime I’ve cleaned up the jet trails.
.
Taken in La Joux-du-Plâne in the Canton of Neuchâtel at about 1200m.

Soon these guys will be back in our garden for the winter. Wary, but very photogenic (aren’t all birds? 😉).
.
Repost from a couple of years ago: Watch this Eurasian Jay go to work on this feeder. I call them the “backyard bullies” since they chase everything else away when they’re around, including woodpeckers and magpies.
.
Like many birds, I love how they meticulously dismantle the larger seeds, while the little ones go down in a two-step “grab-and-gulp” process. See the middle part of the video at 25% speed to see what I mean...

Shot remotely on a GoPro.

Hungry fox... 🦊
.
During the summer, a family of foxes had a burrow under the foundation of a friend’s house. One afternoon I went over for a little close-up portrait photo shoot.
.
I like the lovely rendering here with a portrait lens (58mm f/1.4).
.
Wishing everyone a nice weekend! ☀️
