Dark Skies, Warm Nights :: VT

Dark Skies, Warm Nights :: VT

 

It’s snowing and sleeting here today, so I spent my time daydreaming of warmer nights under the stars. ✨🌙❤

This was taken in lower VT, and is the first night sky photography trip that I brought the dogs along for. I wasn’t sure if they would be good, to be honest, but they surprised me by being patient and well mannered to whole night (which is quite an accomplishment for the younger dog).

The only time they started growling was after everyone else had left, and something big started moving in the woods behind us. It didn’t take long for whatever it was to move along.

Who’s a good dog? My dog! (Sometimes.) 🐶

Traveling + Instagram

…equals “Travelgrams”!

I’ve been on the road a lot over the last few weeks for a variety of family events – cousins graduating, grandparents recovering, family reunions – and as I’m sure you all know by now, the only way for me to be a quiet passenger is to be a photo-ing passenger.  So, here is another installment from my on-going personal “travelgrams” project.

Neither rain, not sleet, nor snow can keep me from…Vermont.
