A night sky full of stars with trees and neighborhood lights along a sloping horizon. Flagstaff’s city lights create a pink glow that radiates out from the lower right of the frame.

Northern [Arizona] Lights.
The glow in the sky here is from Flagstaff’s city lights.

Night sky with stars and neighborhood lights below a sloped horizon.

Starry Sky Surprise.

Backyard string lights and a shade canopy made of bamboo reeds with trees against an electric blue post-sunset sky. Behind the table, a single tree is illuminated by the string lights. One of the larger main branches has a number of spindly new-growth branches growing out in all directions resembling tentacles. I thought it looked like a monster ready to jump out of the tree.

Release the…Kraken? …or whatever that squid/fairy/moth-lookin’ Watcher-in-the-Tree situation is called.

Winter trees lit by passing headlights against a cloudy night sky. The longer exposure creates a blurred effect that looks more like pant or blended pastels than a photograph. This image has not been edited.

Still out here workin’ on my night shoots. #nightmoves #nightshot #clouds #SOOiPhone

Trees, street lamp, and cloudy night sky. The blurred effect comes from from the long exposure + windy conditions.

Early morning, pre-storm.

A night sky with stars. The fall leaves on the trees are lit from below by orange-tinted Dark Sky-Certified street lights. The trees look painted because of the long exposure, but the photo has not been edited beyond whatever algorithmic secret sauce is baked into the iPhone camera app. I love playing with this effect, and it makes for some really weird and cool nighttime photos.

Spooky Season in a Dark Sky City. #spookyseason #photography #phonephotography #SOOiPhone #weirdcool #nightshot #nightsky #stars

Night sky with stars and treetops around the bottom of the frame. Due to the long exposure, low light, wind, and the iPhone camera app’s secret codesauce, the trees appear to have been painted rather than photographed. This photo has not been edited.

A plate of colorful homegrown tomatoes in a range of sizes and varieties.

Hit the tomato jackpot this week. Pretty sure one of the keys to a happy life lies in becoming and/or befriending a prolific and generous gardener. #garden #gardening #tomatoes #phonephotography #mobilephotography #SOOiPhone

Night shot of trees uplit from below. Between and around the trees, the night sky is full of stars. The trees look painted due to the blurring effect from a longer exposure

Blue sky with creamy-gold puffy clouds and one bright white cloud tucked into the bottom center of the frame.

Love this light moment in the clouds. #light #sky #clouds #evening #photo #photography #SOOiPhone #iphonephotography #phonephotography #mobilephotography
