Nighttime at Pyramid Lake
by Beau Rogers
I just got a Sony A7S and a Rokinon 14mm f2.8 lens, so I can go all out on my Nighttime in Nevada project, and this is from my first attempt at testing it out. It’s easily the most sophisticated camera that I’ve ever used, and I’m going to need to experiment with it for a while before I feel comfortable with getting the most out of its capabilities.

Far Out at Mobias Arch

I went out to the Alabama Hills of California’s Eastern Sierra to play around with some nighttime photography, and I used my new flashlight for some light painting.

Nighttime at Pfeiffer Beach

The mist, clouds, & humidity make it rough to do oceanside astrophotography, but here’s my attempt at it from Big Sur’s Pfeiffer Beach.

Star Lake, California
by Beau Rogers
In the middle of July, I attempted a thru-hike on the Tahoe Rim Trail, and everything was going great until I slipped on a rock and severly dislocated my left index finger while trying to get up a side-trail to Mt. Tallac before sunset. It was a great week out in the backcountry, and even though I’m typing this one-hanfed I am glad I lugged around the heavy camera equipment for a week. Next year, I’ll try to finish it. Anyway, here’s one from the second night on the trail when I camped at Star Lake.

Milky Way over Barn in Modoc County, California

My supermoon photos were kind of meh, but at least I found this old barn to photograph during my long drive home.
