Yeah, that's me climbing a serac. It was an almost perfect 100+foot spike. I just had to try it. I couldn't take this photo for obvious reasons but it was my camera. Ginger got a pretty dramatic shot. Photography in her future I think.

These photos I took on the summit of Mount Baker in winter. Baker is an active volcano in the Northern Cascades. To the east you can see Mt. Shuksan poking it's head above the clouds. We were on that peak as well the very next day. I only have a few photos because the cold killed my camera battery because we had negative 60°F windchill temps (-60°F). Brr..

Monday Morning Thoughts:

• Prosecuting Trump will only fire up his base and Republicans.

• It risks setting a precedent of charging and jailing political opponents. That may go over in Russia and China but not in the USA.

• Wouldn't you rather have Trump 'on the loose' so he can finish burning down the last shreds of the Republican Party?

Bonus Thought: As the last glowing embers of the Republican Party begin to fade, they will end Trump themselves.

Agree or nah?

Happy to see so many people out still watching the skies. 😁

Globular Cluster (M22). These look like a blob in the night sky but they are made up of thousands, possibly millions of stars. Really bizarre objects. Why these form near galaxies is unknown.

The job market is so hot, even good news is bad news to corporations. I love it! Just read this twisted article. CNBC has spent the last 2 years bashing Pres Biden, they don't even know what to say now.

Waxing Gibbous Moon over Central Pennsylvania.

You'll notice the moon surface is rust-brown in some places and deeper gray-black in others. The rust-brown is primarily iron ore, titanium, and the gray-black is basalt.

This changed many opinions on the Moon's origins as it's composition was identical to Earth's. Feel free to use however you like.

Polar-aligned Nikon DSLR on a tripod. Set digiCam to 80sec exposures, 90 minutes worth. Just point your camera at Polaris (a binary star), set it and forget it. Then stack 'em up. Anyone in the Northern Hemisphere can do this.
