Rainy Day at the Wildlife Refuge

I enjoyed a challenging day of photography at a wildlife refuge during a rainstorm. The Sandhill Cranes were grazing in the fields, and a hawk was clearly enjoying the chance for a refreshing bath, but most other wildlife seemed to be hunkering down and waiting for the sun to make an appearance!

Aurora in the Pacific Northwest - October 2024

The Aurora Borealis shimmers over the slumbering fields as skeins of clouds rush across the sky to obscure the light show in its silent dance high up above the surface of the Earth. Capturing these photos and video last night as the Northern Lights made a rare appearance here in the Pacific Northwest was a magical experience.
