@prairieskychamber featured two of my #astrophotography images on this year’s Business Excellence Awards. I’m excited to know that the living skies of Saskatchewan are hanging in some of the best businesses in the city of #Warman. #astronomy #publicoutreach

This morning’s #aurora workshop at @londondrugs Saskatoon was a great chance for me to share my passion for the #livingskies of Saskatchewan (and beyond) #astrophotography #publicoutroeach

There’s a snowstorm today so what better day to redecorate my office. I’m a firm believer that #astrophotography should be printed and displayed. The new look highlights more of my efforts…and warms my heart as I remember the cool, dark nights spent capturing the photons. #astronomy

#M44 (the #BeehiveCluster) was one of the first open star clusters studied by Galileo when he pointed his refracting telescope to the night sky. #astronomy #astrophotography #deepskyimaging #seestars50

67 mins of 10 sec subs on #NGC2174 with zero rejected frames and no field rotation. This EQ mode update for the #SeestarS50 is truly amazing. #astronomy #astrophotography #deepskyimaging

My old spare @manfrottoimaginemore 128 video head mounted on my ancient 055 legs makes for a sturdy and simple EQ mount for my @seestar.official S50. #astronomy #astrophotography #seestars50 #neverselloldgear

I passed on a @fujifilm_instax_northamerica to my son @hamlet.sandwich and he upcycled the dinosaur 🦕 🦖 suspenders he wore as a preschooler for a strap. #everythingoldisnewagain

First test of EQ mode on the #seestars50. 23mins of 20 sec subs with just a hand full of rejected frames under as tight breeze. I’m pretty happy with this result on #m42. #astronomy #astrophotography #deepskyimaging

After a long, cold, cloudy winter, tonight, on it’s last day, I will finally get a shot at imaging #Orion as it slips to the west. It’s been a while since I put this rig together. May the clear sky forecast be correct! #astronomy #astrophotography #deepskyimaging.

Set up and ready for the first of four funeral #livestream in the next three days. It is truly a blessing to be able to help people remember their loved ones at this most difficult of times. #videoproduction

Gotta love the #seestars50. 3mins outside on the left so I can spend hours indoors on the right. #astrophotography #astronomy #deepsky

I have almost exclusively used it in the city. The unit has an internal light pollution filter. This was taken in my front yard.

I have seen amazing and beautiful things in the sky since I first actively looked up at it 50 yrs ago. 2024 however was by far my highlight year as it was my first time to experience the wonder and awe of a #totalsolareclipse.

Some of my out of town friends asked “what images are in your gallery exhibit?” Here is a peek at the selection. To see them in all their glory stop by @eyegalleryart in Saskatoon for the full experience. The show ends Dec 31. #yxearts #astrophotography #astronomy

A brief trip to the workshop and our Christmas Tree is no longer wobbling on those two welded coat hangers that Noma calls a “stand” #ifthewomendontfindyouhandsomeatleasttheywillfindyouhandy
