My journey of pointing cameras at the night sky.
Click on Image above for current Western Labrador (or many other Canadian locations) Clear Sky Forecast.
Since my First 35mm SLR camera, a Pentax K-1000 in 1977, to my latest ZWO ASI183MM astrophotography camera, I’ve been pointing cameras at the night sky. Living in northern Canada presents unique challenges, as our longest, darkest & most brilliant night sky’s occur in our coldest months, December to March.
These pages contain some of my Aurora pictures, Time Lapse videos, Deep Sky Object (DSO) images. Coming soon will be a Live Sky Camera & maybe even some Landscapes photos.
