These tiny cleaner gobies are super common in the Caribbean, but I liked the textured background of the brain coral. #underwaterphotography #macro #bahamas #fish #tinycritters #coral #olympus #om1 🦑 📷 🐟️ 🪸

Here's a sneak peek at a cool critter from the Bahamas: the neck crab! This one is hanging upside down from a green sponge and is well camouflaged. #underwaterphotography #critters #crabs #camouflage #scuba #nightdiving #olympus #om1 🦑 🦀 📷

My phone has been buzzing about solar flares and these monster sunspots did not disappoint! This image was captured at 1pm on February 4th. Full res + details: www.astrobin.com/15lhx0/ #astrophotography #sun #sunspots #solarflares #space #touptek #skywatcherUSA

Just sold 2 items on my website! A customer in Colorado purchased a sherpa fleece blanket of Andromeda and a photo print of Heart Nebula (perhaps Valentine's Day gifts???) buff.ly/6uIR8uZ buff.ly/lb4cJLm Enjoy your purchases! #astrophotography #art #localartist #gifts

Flying squirrel! Just kidding, it's a gray squirrel that bolted away as I slowly approached. My shutter was set at 1/320, but he was speedy. #squirrel #motion #wildlife #wildlifephotography #olympus #om1 #nature

Black-capped chickadee on our feeder. I was sitting pretty close to the feeder, so most other birds were nervous about approaching, but the chickadees were unbothered. #birds #backyardbirds #chickadee #NewEngland #wildlife #wildlifephotography #olympus #om1

The Eastern half of the US has some nasty winter weather last weekend. Some places had ice accumulation, but we had about 18" of snow. Here's a time lapse! youtu.be/VLjATYSd5OA?... #snow #winter #timelapse

I took the rare break in the clouds as an opportunity to get my first moon image in awhile. This image was captured on January 27th with the moon 74% waxing. Lovely, as always! Details: buff.ly/aaCr54W #astrophotography #moon #crescent #photography #touptek #skywatcherUSA #space 🔭 📷 🌔

Last year, I took a road trip down to North Carolina to dive with sand tiger #sharks. Filmed over several days, so you’re seeing different sharks across multiple dives. www.youtube.com/shorts/U6KVm... #SandTigerShark #NorthCarolinaDiving #adventure #ScubaDiving #OceanWildlife #MarineLife

Alright, fellow astrophotographers. Let's see your snow fort observatories! Here's mine up here in snowy Massachusetts, USA. We got about 18 inches of snow last weekend and there's no thaw in the forecastable future. #astrophotography #snow #winter #iceplanethoth #tundra

Playing with the OM-1's live composite mode while using my fisheye lens. The thin clouds created a surreal effect. Olympus OM-1.1 Live Composite of 8s exposures Olympus 8mm fisheye PRO @ f/2.0 #photography #astrophotography #longexposure #startrails #clouds #fisheye #nightsky #space 📷 🔭

THREE (!!!) long-eared owls resting together as the sun goes down. These images are a heavy crop with Lightroom denoise as I didn't have enough focal length and the light was fading as sunset approached. #wildlifephotography #wildlife #birds #owls #raptors #olympus #om1 #lifer 🦉 🐦 📷

It has been a busy couple days for Earth's magnetic field as the sun has been pummeling us with material. With all this sunspot activity, it's easy to see why! Full res + details: buff.ly/lOYXqmZ #astrophotography #photography #sunspots #aurora #skywatcherUSA #touptek 🔭 📷

I came across this pair of birds in an unfrozen part of the lake and just assumed it was a pair of the same species. I later realized this was a male hooded merganser and male bufflehead chilling (literally) together. #birds #waterfowl #wildlifephotography #wildlife #olympus #photography 🐦

Dive #2 with the OM-1! I set the AF limiter correctly and it's a good thing I did because there were tiny sea slugs EVERYWHERE. #underwaterPhotography #scuba #scubaDiving #olympus #om1 #shrimp #nudibranchs #NewEngland #coldWater 🦑

PixInsight just added a new step for rejecting frames during the stacking process! My current intake process will filter out obvious things like clouds, but Frame Selection exposed a potential issue with my frames shot during the full moon. Sweet! #astrophotography #pixinsight #stacking #processing

Horsehead and Flame Nebula are a rite of passage for any new camera gear, so I pointed my ToupTek585M at it and snapped away with L, R, G, and B filters. Prints: buff.ly/k6rAEso Details: buff.ly/C5bdeLj #astrophotography #space #nebula #orion #horsehead #touptek #skywatcherUSA #photography 🔭📷

First dive with my new Olympus OM-1 and of 2026! Nice surface conditions, freezing cold crystal clear water, and some good macro critters made for a nice dive! #underwaterPhotography #macroPhotography #scuba #scubaDiving #anemones #crabs #scallop #olympus #om1 🦑 📷 🦀

Super quick read on the December recap since I only did a single dive. Great conditions on that one dive, but our weather has been so junky recently. Looking forward to getting out again soon! buff.ly/7maP8MN #underwaterPhotography #nudibranchs #blog #olympus #photography #scubaDiving #tg 📷 🦑

I'm looking for some inspiration for how best to use my new Olympus 8mm fisheye lens. I'm not in love with the weird look of the trees in this image. Do you have a super wide angle shot you love? Please drop it in the comments! #photography #forest #olympus #om1 #fisheye #lenses #inspiration

A swan family (I believe two parents and a juvenile) on the lake as sunset approaches. I don't have a proper telephoto lens yet, so I had to crop this image in. Captured with my Olympus OM-1 + 60mm macro lens #photography #birds #swans #family #sunset #olympus #om1 📷 🐦 🦢

Hooray for astrophotography! Imaging opportunities have been few and far between recently, so I took deep sky pics last night and then a quick sun pic this morning. Good stuff! Full res + details: buff.ly/ljn5Nna #astrophotography #sunspots #solar #solarsystem #space #telescope 🔭 📷

Ice lily pads on Lake Cochituate! These shapes are formed when water freezes on top of a body of water with waves to break the ice into chunks as it forms. The edges are caused by the chunks bumping up against one another. Really cool! #ice #frozen #lake #lilypad #discs #winter #olympus #om1

This is a two panel mosaic of Dark Shark Nebula with about 2h on R, G, B and 4 h on L per panel. This is still very much underbaked and will need more exposure time, but it's starting to take shape. #astrophotography #darknebula #shark #photography #space #telescope #touptek #skyWatcherUSA

My first cartoony dog nose pic with the fisheye lens! I didn't really slow down for this picture because I was pretty sure she was going to boop my lens in her excitement. We'll try again sometime when she's calmer. #dogs #pets #christmas #fisheye #photography #cartoon #christmastree #olympus #om1

Merry Christmas from my pup in her new sweater! She loves presents!

We surfaced on a shore dive at Old Garden Beach to check our location only to come face to face with this crew of double-crested cormorants. I can only assume they were mocking my navigation skills. #photography #birds #waterbirds #olympus #tg #scubaDiving #cormorants 📷 🦑 🐦

Taken at Pebble Beach in Rockport, MA. It was remarkably empty - we saw moon snails and crabs, but only a couple fish and shrimp. The only real interesting find was a tiny lumpfish right near the end of the dive. #underwaterPhotography #photography #shrimp #fish #scubaDiving #rockportMA 🦑 📷

Had a lovely dive at Folly Cove in Gloucester, Massachusetts this morning. We finally got a break with air temperatures in the 40s and bright sunshine. The visibility was amazing and the nudibranchs were out! #photography #underwaterPhotography #nudibranchs #seaweed #NewEngland #gloucesterMA 🦑 📷

Took my new OM-1 out for a stroll to find some nature subjects. Nothing spectacular for photos, but I did find evidence of beaver activity and their lodge. The residents were nowhere to be seen, but I'll be checking back to see if I can spot them. #photography #nature #beavers #olympus #om1 📷 🦫
