After Midnight

Brighton Beach, Duluth MN

This is my first Milky Way in a long while and I was fortunate enough to even capture it. Despite the chaos it was another small adventure, quiet time under the stars, and a new moment in time captured to savor into the future.

Ornamental Ice

Shores of beautiful ice at Brighton Beach, Duluth MN

This being one of my first Lensball shots,  I waited and waited for the sun to come to the tip of the ice shard, then realizing it had already set beneath the tip since the view in the ball is inverted via refraction.
