I visited Capitol Reef National Park in Utah with my dad to photograph the 2023 Annular Solar Eclipse. I share the behind the scenes of how I planned for the solar eclipse and my experience witnessing this cool celestial event.

I photographed the milky way and Perseids Meteor Shower at about 2500 feet above sea level nested in the Santa Cruz Mountains above the commonly occurring Bay Area coastal summertime fog. I also captured a beautiful sunset before the clouds gave way to the stars above.

I visited Donner Lake with my parents in the summertime and enjoyed the calm, peaceful views. I capture some beautiful cloud formations as I learn to be patient to wait for the best light and share thoughts about how I composed my photos.
