Isaac, Erica, and I took a drive out to CoffeePot Crater to check out the area and do some late-night astrophotography.

I had some time today to work on some of my long-overdue projects. One of them was to fix the switch for my bandsaw (it was damaged during our move). The fix involved cutting and shaping a new plate for the new switch to be installed into, and I grabbed this shot while cutting the…

Adelmann Mine, Idaho
I had an opportunity to join Jim from http://improvephotography.com and Darren from http://shootboise.com last night on a midnight hike to an old abandoned mine outside of Boise, Idaho. The hike in and out is VERY steep, but completely worth it to get a shot like this: The weather was perfect, with clear skies and excellent…
