Shooting star
Kluchevskoi Volcano 🌋 also known as Klyuchevskaya Sopka at 15 580 ft is the highest active volcano in Eurasia. While I was photographing its eruption, a shooting star 🌠 passed by. It was surreal. This is one frame - long exposure.

Totality - diamond ring
Totality was the most memorable shot of 2017 for me. It was different: the light was bending, slipping away, hiding, and sneaking back out again. It felt like I was part of something bigger. It surely was an out of this world experience. I recommend everyone to try to shoot the full eclipse. This shot was taken in South Carolina. Used equipment: d810, Nikkor 500 mm, filter Flrecrest IRND 18 stops, gitzo tripod. These are two exposures: one for moon texture, and second one for the diamond ring.

Supermoon Full Lunar Eclipse
Together until the end.
Throughout my life, I have been fascinated with the trees. Unlike us, trees take a lifelong stand. Unlike us, some of them are strong enough to withstand thousands of years. Some of us enjoy their aesthetic landscaping appeal, other consider them “things”. If trees could express themselves more vividly, they would likely consider us as pests.
It was during my recent solar eclipse trip to South Carolina, when I witnessed this scene. At the South Carolina global warming frontier, the mighty ocean keeps on claiming more and more land. Erosion eats up the coastline; with not much choice left, the trees keep their stand. The well-rooted oak tree is holding, a once beautiful, currently faded palm tree. I can almost hear him saying: ‘Don’t worry. We are not down yet. I’ve gotten you.' Together until the end.

Sunset at Santa Maddalena
It did not feel like much happening during that evening. Low clouds were covering the mountains, while the light was slipping away. Suddenly the mountains lighted up for a split second. It was almost like someone turned on a switch. All I had to do is to press the button.
The Organ
If you are wondering how Mars would look like after we colonize it, go for a hike at Arches National Park. Fresh air and some of the best sceneries will entice your imagination.
