This might be one of my very first Milky Way shots—or at least an early one—from the incredible dark skies of Island Park, Idaho. (One of the best spots in the state for stargazing—minimal light pollution and pure magic overhead!)

I’m doing something a bit different this week. Here are some photos I took back in 2011 with my very first digital camera.

I've visited Yellowstone National Park countless times—more than I can even count! I still head up there often with my family for those unforgettable adventures. This is one of my all-time favorite photos of the iconic Old Faithful geyser, capturing its timeless power and beauty.

I love capturing the stars in all their glory

The Yellowstone River and the canyon are absolutely beautiful. Believe it or not that river starts near Yellowstone. The continental divide goes through Yellowstone so the Yellowstone River eventually runs into the Missouri River, the Mississippi River, and into the Gulf.
