A crescent moon reveals its shadow side in the upper left with a greenish glowing aura against the black of night with Venus glowing in starburst in the lower right.

“Star-crossed Lovers” ~ the waxing crescent moon opposes Venus in the night above the Susquehanna Valley, Pa., January 2025. #nightphotography #moon #venus #centralpa #susquehannavalley #photography #starphotos #nature

“Moon o’er Marysville” ~ composite image of the crescent moon and river, December 2024. Winter nights along the Susquehanna River can be cold, but beautiful. Hope to do a similar photo this year. #susquehannariver #susquehannavalley #centralpa #landscapephotography #moonphotos #nightphotography

“Stormy Days” ~watercolor on paper, 5x8. This set of abstract clouds were inspired by some interesting clouds outside my home recently. The blue was the first one I made. Then I decided to play with some other colors. #watercolor #painting #centralpa #abstractart #susquehannavalley

Great #sunsetphotos from July 2022. Just hanging out with friends when we got the best reds, pinks and violets. My photos are available in prints, canvas and other formats such as postcards. Message me to inquire.

Here’s the process I used to create “Walk in the Woods”. I saw a similar birch painting and loved the chaos of ripped tape for tree shapes. Will do more of these. #watercolor #trees #forests #painting #nature #art #centralpa #susquehannavalley #centralpaart #centralpaartists

“Walk in the Woods” ~ a birch forest I painted Sunday morning; 8x11 inches, watercolor on paper. I was thinking about this for some time and tried a new process instead of the one I used for my Cherry Blossom panting. #watercolor #birchtree #painting #nature #centralpa #susquehannavalley

“Firefly Birdbox” ~fireflies light up the evening in Pennsylvania. This photograph is a composite of 272 images to capture almost 3 hours of our native bioluminescent insects. #summernights #fireflies #nature #susquehannavalley #harrisburg #fireflyphotos #photography #centralpa #insects #bugs

A new study from @pennstateuniv.bsky.social shows that none of the evaluated counties in the #SusquehannaValley meet best practices for flood planning

Why? Trump’s FEMA removed all climate change requirements from hazard mitigation plans — and left local officials without tools or support they need

Monday morning, you sure look fine!

“Bubbles Ablaze” ~ watercolor on paper, 5x7. I had been thinking about rainbow bubbles for a while this week (I think a dream had bubbles, but don’t remember it all), so I made a couple bubble paintings. 1/2… #watercolor #painting #art #centralpa #bubbles #harrisburgpa #susquehannavalley

Helped this painted turtle hatchling across the hiking path at Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, and planted two trees for an extended “Earth Week”, a redbud and a red spruce. #earthday #turtles #trees #centralpa #harrisburgpa #susquehannavalley #nature #wildlife

"Sunset Patio in March" ~ As the chill of winter eases away, warm sunsets silhouette the naked trees and blush the clouds floating by, offering up orange and purple bliss refractions.

I think the #SusquehannaValley is going to get 1"-2" of snow before quickly changing to sleet, which will accumulate for several hours, then changeover to pure freezing rain for several hours. Keep in mind, models always get rid of the low level cold air there too soon. #PAwx
