South Haven Lighthouse at Night with Boat Lights and Star Trails
This photo is the result of mounting my camera on a tripod and maintaining the position while capturing photos for a couple hours. 86 star trail images were stacked and combined with images of the first boat that passed by.

Little Sable Point Lighthouse with the Milky Way
In early October 2020 I wanted to capture the Little Sable Point Lighthouse under the Milky Way before the Milky Way core moved below the southern horizon for the winter. As I was taking the photos used to create this image I realized there was a little wildfire smoke visible along the horizon. Although I was initially concerned about the smoke ruining the image, it had a fascinating effect of enhancing the glow of city lights across Lake Michigan in a translucent, illuminated haze along the horizon.
