Nightfall over Kettle River Nightfall over Kettle River, Washington state looking north.
IC342 The Hidden Galaxy Spiral galaxy IC342. Nicknamed "the hidden galaxy," because it is obscured by the dusty areas of our galactic equator. Located approximately 11 million light years from earth, in the constellation Camelopardalis at magnitude 9.1 Taken with 8" SCT Telescope, ZWO ASI183MC Pro camera, stacked and edited in pixinsight. Need a few more frames on this one, but I am very happy with the results given only one night of imaging.
Dandelion Just a shot of a Dandelion. Trying my hand at macro
American Crow One very antagonistic crow. I watched this crow bully the others over and over. This is the only picture that turned out halfway reasonable. Black bird with bright background was a very difficult shot.
Fishing Bald Eagle Bald Eagle out evening fishing
Showy Daisy I think this is a "Showy Daisy." Another name for it is "Showy Fleabane." These grow in moist places in the woods, slopes, and meadows at higher elevations.
Rufous Hummingbird Taking a picture of the flower actually, and happened to have this hummingbird show up. Made my whole weekend to take a hummingbird photo feeding at wild flowers. I think this is a female "Rufous Hummingbird." The wildflower is a "Scarlet Trumpet."
