We may have snow tomorrow, but Spring is right around the corner, so let’s flash back to Fall!

One year later with Abby, Donna, and Rubin 🍁✨

Abby is TWO now… and surprise: she’s about to be a big sister! 💛

At peak fall color, we met up at one of their favorite parks to soak in the last golden sunsets of 2025. Abby proved she’s officially an expert climber and absolutely flew with dad tossing her skyward.

Here’s to this beautiful family growing again in 2026. 🍂👶🏻

March, 2025 Total Lunar Eclipse.

To the naked eye, this eclipse looked like a cataract in the sky, or at maximum eclipse as though Mars had entered our orbit. Stars are visible in space behind the moon thanks to my camera’s sensor with sensitivity that still astounds me, and some high ISO noise reduction and editing skills I have up my sleeve. This image is not a composite or blend of multiple exposures.

Did you get a glimpse overnight?
