This is the fourth post in a row about photographing the aurora borealis, but it will be the last one for quite a while. The posts have been about progressively better displays, but there’s nowhere to go after this one. I haven’t seen any reports from scientists yet, but...

On Monday morning (February 12th), I had just gotten home from a session with my osteopath and had started making brunch when I got a message from a friend that said simply “It’s clear blue skies all the way to the junction.” Being one who often takes hints quite...

When I left you last post, I had just poured myself a celebratory glass of very good single-malt on the evening of Tuesday, September 6. The day wasn’t over yet, though. Seeing great light on the beach just before 9:00 pm, Cathy and I went down and were greeted...

Although I’ve gotten ahead of myself with a couple of posts, I would still like to share our 9 days at Kluane Lake with you. I’ve gathered 65 photos so will do it in 2 posts. Although we didn’t do anything major, there was a fair bit of variety,...

We got home last night from 9 days at Congdon Creek Campground on Kluane Lake. A few minutes before 02:00 on September 4th, an excellent display began. As is often the case, I woke up just before it began. When the show started, I quickly got my camera gear...

While we didn’t use the e-bikes as much as we’d planned to during our 9 days at Kluane Lake for a variety of reasons, we still had some excellent rides, so I thought a separate post for all of them would be appropriate. On our first full day at...

One of the big gifts that Mother Nature sent me during our 9 days at Congdon Creek Campground on Kluane Lake was 4 mornings of aurora borealis displays. They were a very big surprise as the aurora forecast I rely on said there was pretty much no chance of...

Monday, September 6th, was our 5th day away from home, our 4th full day at Congdon Creek Campground. I started the day just before 10:00 by taking Tucker with me for a drive to photograph mountains and whatever in the gorgeous sunshine. Our first stop was at the Slim’s...

Cathy and the dogs and I got home Friday night (September 10th) from our best “staycation” ever – 9 days with the RV at Congdon Creek Campground on Kluane Lake, with no cell service or Internet access. I’d had about all the covid and politics I could handle, so...

On Tuesday and Wednesday (May 4th and 5th), I made two rides that were significant in my life. On Tuesday I did the longest ride yet on my new e-bike, just over 30 kilometers. And yesterday I did a 504-km ride to Kluane Lake on the V-Star – it’s...
