    I had known about this location for a long time and always wanted to do a Milky Way shoot there, but I felt uncomfortable going alone at night with my gear. I persuaded the Birmingham Photography Group to join me, and we finally did a shoot at the location. And well... this is the result.I heard that the sails might be back on the windmill this year, so I?ll definitely be doing this shoot again.

    Since it's springtime and the garden blooms are happening here is a beautiful Bird Of Paradise portrait in black and white. Love the challenge of b&w conversions that go beyond the pressing of the desaturate button and remembering my early days with 35mm b&w film and the darkroom experience with controlling the darks and lights and gray tones

    Title or Location: Milky Way over Midway Gyser Basin
    This was an amazing night for Milky Way photography in Yellowstone National Park. Watching the stars rise over the many hydrothermal features created an otherworldly feeling I wanted to capture. Both blending and stacking techniques were used to capture detail in the foreground and control noise throughout the image.
