Canadian frigate HMCS St. John's maneuvering in Gdynia harbor, Poland (2007)

HMCS St. John's is a Halifax-class frigate of the Royal Canadian Navy. She was commissioned on 24 June 1996 and is the first ship named after the city of St. John's in Newfoundland and Labrador. She is part of a class designed as a general-purpose warship, with a particular focus on anti-submarine warfare. Over her career, St. John's has served with NATO forces, supported operations in Afghanistan, participated in counter-narcotics missions in the Caribbean, provided disaster relief after hurricanes and other emergencies, and undergone modernization to keep pace with evolving maritime threats.

Warm Springs, OR.

On my drive back from Bend, I looked out to the left, expecting to see some mountains, and instead I got to see art! I ended up pulling the car over right there and then on a deserted stretch of highway. I actually did that a lot on the return trip, and I think it took me an hour longer to get home than it did to get out there. There's just so much art to be made, you know?

Thanks for seeing my work!

Daytime Moon Meets Evening Star

Venus is now appearing on the celestial stage as Earth's brilliant evening star, performing with the Moon, other wandering planets, and bright stars in western skies. For evening sky gazers on June 17, the celestial beacon rose after sunset close by a young, slender, crescent Moon. But from some locations the Moon could be seen to occult or pass in front of Venus. And from a backyard observatory in southern British Columbia, Canada, the lunar occultation was played out in daylight. This stunning telescopic snapshot captured a scene in dramatically cloudy skies, following Venus' hour long disappearance, as the evening star emerged beyond the bright lunar limb.
