Tonight’s Sun and Moon*
What a day, I’ll tell ya…
It’s wildfire season again (of course) and Alaska currently has over 250,000 acres burning. ….It sure makes for pretty photos though.
I did not use any filters or manipulate these photos at all. Just taken with my real camera, all a few minutes apart.
Also… I am sad to report that during this session, I knocked over my camera on its tripod, which broke the camera, front and back. I’m super bummed. Phones just don’t take as accurate of photos with all the “smart robots” that are built in and installed. sighhhhh.

Real camera is expensive, unless you find one pre-loved and someone gives away before they go all digital.

I know! I like the non-AI cameras so much better. My mom said I should try a pawn shop.

Ah, that’s terrible news about the camera
While the photos are gorgeous, I do hope that the fires don’t directly affect you.
Stay golden!

So far the majority are across the Inlet and beyond the mountains in western Alaska. The smoke is high in the atmosphere.
I hope I will be able to get a new camera this autumn.

Spectacular shots, though with a heavy price. Hope you get yourself back in the saddle, equipment-wise. Also hope the wildfires get contained soon.

They don’t typically contain most of the fires in Alaska unless it threatens a village. There’s just so much wilderness.
PS: I just finished editing your book last night so I’ll be emailing you the PDF soon. ☺️
