“Sky Gazing” in the Dust // 50mm f/3.5 // This piece was so majestic and calming in the daylight: the flow of it was sensuous, and the soft rustle of colorful ribbons was like a serene flowing stream. In the dust, the illusion of it hovering in midair became fully realized // Artists: @pshearn11@poetickinetics #burningman #2024 #deepplaya #skygazing #ribbon #river #vibrant #color #flow #delicate #artinstallation #stream #sculpture #suspension #canopy #fabric #sky #duststorm #whiteout #desert #atmosphere #fujifilm #gfx #mediumformat #gfx50sii
Temple of the Deep Against Dusk-Lit Mountains // 55mm f/5 // I loved visiting @temple_of_the_deep throughout the week as it completed assembly. The massive stark form always called out a connection to the mountain ranges beyond, and getting to see it glow a golden orange through the breaks in its surface that matched the hue of the sunset beyond was a truly stunning moment! // Design Lead by @_miguelarraiz_ // #templeofthedeep #burningman2025 @burningman #sunset #mountains #light #golden #orange #dusk #landscape #desert #architecture #temple #mountains #burningman #gfx #fujifilm #gfx50sii
House of Four Ecologies // 17mm TS-E f/7.1 // Had the pleasure of seeing this incredible home as part of the annual @soroptimist International architectural tour in Sea Ranch, CA. Besides being a meticulously crafted design unto itself, its position as a home in Sea Ranch is a very unique and memorable one, eschewing the historically weathered grey-warm vertical/shingle wood siding for stark panels of black plywood, with a contrastingly bright and airily warm palette at the interior. It immediately anchored visitors in a serenity that only progressed while moving through the four volumes // Designer: @figure.office // #searanch #fourecologies #house #architecture #design
Blood Moon Diamond Ring // 400mm f/6.3 // This was probably my favorite atmospheric moment from yesterday morning’s lunar eclipse. Just as the earth’s shadow was reaching totality, the remaining rim of bright moonlight met the cool damp haze of the air (and maybe a bit of mist on my lens) to flare out ever so slightly like the diamond ring phenomenon you can see during entry/exit of a solar eclipse // #lunareclipse #bloodmoon #diamondring #astrophoto #gfx50sii
Blood Moon Eclipse 2026 // 400mm f/8 // Nearly lost the eclipse in the clouds (you can see me hunt for focus in the moving wisps in the second shot) but was overjoyed to get a clear view of the deep bloody hue of the lunar surface. First image is in totality, third is entering the partial eclipse // #bloodmooneclipse #bloodmoon2026 #lunareclipse #astrophoto #fujifilm
Orion Nebula // 400mm f/11 // This was the first Astro long exposure I’ve done in a while, just before the New Year. The first time I noticed the Orion Nebula with just my glasses, I immediately got hooked on the idea of trying to photograph it. That time I just had a tripod, and got a distinct but not very detailed image with just a 2 second exposure. When I tried again at the end of December, I brought out an equatorial motor to counter the Earth’s rotational movement, and managed to pull a 1 minute exposure! Check out the difference between images! Both used the same lens and camera // #orion #nebula #astrophoto #longexposure #telephoto
The Package // It was awesome to catch @aperfectcircle at @aftershockfestival , and this remains one of my favorite APC tracks, especially for how the song reaches the big electric solo rendition of the opening riff. That is a guitar tone that is probably never leaving my mind. // #aperfectcircle #aftershockfestival #maynardjameskeenan #billyhowerdel #joshfreese #gregedwards #thepackage #13thstep #thirteenthstep #2000s #rock #guitar #solo #live #music #festival #aftershock #metal
Chevelle @ Masonic // I’ve been able to see Chevelle once before, but only for a roughly 30min set at a festival, so getting a full set from them in there own headline show at a venue like Masonic was awesome! Between this and Linkin Park a couple weeks ago, have really been enjoying fulfilling a little bucket list of bands that loomed large in my Jr High listening 🙂 // @getmorechevelle@sfmasonic // #chevelle #peterloeffler #samloeffler #kemblewalters #livemusic #rock #concert #sfmasonic #sanfrancisco #masonic #auditorium #stage #frontrow #guitar #drums #bass #iphone17pro #4x #telephoto
Papercut // @linkinpark live @golden1center // I held out hope all night this track would make the cut, and felt so much joy course through my veins the moment that riff and beat started. Back in Jr High, putting this album on for the first time I remember the jolt of “Papercut” kicking things off, and this moment hit just as hard // #papercut #hybridtheory #linkinpark #numetal #rock #guitar #mrhahn #mikeshinoda #emilyarmstrong #sacramento #golden1center #live #music #concert #lights #stage

Late Afternoon at Sphinx Gate // 50mm f/11 // Towering against the landscape, the sculpted fabrics stretched across these skeletal sphinxes caught the sunlight beautifully as it began to dip down toward the evening // Artists: @mareesa_stertz@groovyamoeba47@jasonchasedesignerofawesome@thesphinxgate // @burningman #burningman2025 #sphinxgate #deepplaya #sunlight #fabric #skeletal #structure #sculpture #gateway #threshold #liminal #landscape #mountains #evening #mountains #burningman #playa #fujifilm #gfx #mediumformat #gfx50sii
