Solar Eclipse 2017 - Beginning to End I really had doubts that this one was going to work out! The forecast was calling for a 60% chance of thunderstorms in Lancaster, PA. I had some trouble with thick clouds in the beginning but in the end - it all worked out. Each photo was made with a Canon 70D and a Canon 17-40 mm f/4L lens @ 36 mm. (1/160 sec, ISO 200, Baader Solar Filter, f/7.1)

Moonset Among the Row of Sunflowers The setting moon is seen above a row of light painted sunflowers in this 20 second exposure.

The Meteor and the Flower Moon LPOD on June 7, 2013 -- lpod.wikispaces.com/June+7%2C+2013 ( <a href="http://lpod.wikispaces.com/June+7,+2013" rel="noreferrer nofollow">lpod.wikispaces.com/June+7,+2013</a> )

A bright meteor along with the full &quot;flower&quot; moon are seen illuminating the Lancaster, PA countryside. The image was made of 415 twenty second exposures (about 2.5 hours). Each image was taken with a Canon T2i (f/5.0 with a Sigma 10-20 mm lens @ 14 mm / ISO 400) and stacked using StarStax. This must have been some meteor! I unfortunately must have been looking away but at least it was captured in the image.

The Fog Bank across the Stream A fog bank is seen engulfing a flowing stream in Lancaster, PA. Two stop (-2, 0, +2) HDR processing was done using Photomatix and light processing in Photoshop Elements. I originally wanted to photograph the thin crescent moon and Venus pairing; however, the clouds and fog had other plans! Despite missing the moon, I really like the way the photo turned out. Venus can be seen to the left of the tree in the middle of the photograph.

Forest buffer maintenance in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Staff from the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay perform maintenance on a riparian forest buffer that had been planted at Keystone Dairy Ventures LLC in Peach Bottom, Pa., on July 7, 2022. The crew straightened the tubes protecting the young trees, which were planted in the fall of 2021, and fixed stakes that had become loose or broken. “Tree maintenance isn’t just important, it's critical,” said Jim Kauffman, Pennsylvania Forests Project Coordinator for the Alliance. “Ninety percent of trees planted would die without maintenance.” (Photo by Caroline Grass/Chesapeake Bay Program)
