Supermoon

Supermoon Around 10PM by Emily Duong

Took a few tries to get good snap shots of some thing so bright at night. Here’s my favorite snapshot of the supermoon from last Saturday night, taken around 10PM EST. M, N and I had planned on camping upstate last weekend and the supermoon happen to coincide. At first it was really cloudy, but the light still broke through. The sky completely cleared up by 11PM, but not before all the clouds split up into a million pieces, almost as if the moon’s energy was breaking them up and summoning them closer. It was like watching a surrealist painting turn into a photograph. Learn more about the supermoon from NASA.

Slide Mountain Wilderness

First night on the trail

The day after Thanksgiving I went for my last hike of 2011 in the Catskills with M, C, F and A It was rather spontaneous, I first proposed the plan that Sunday to M, still itching to make use of newly purchased camp gear from our Arizona camping trip earlier in November. We decided on camping 2 nights and hiking a combination of 2 trails – the Wittenberg-Cornell-Slide (WCS) and the Phoenicia East Branch (PEB).

Panorama Mania

Preview of the Grand Canyon At Sunrise

Recently, I’ve returned from an amazing trip from Las Vegas, Nevada to Phoenix, Arizona, stopping in Supai, Grand Canyon and Sedona. It was my first time to all these places. I have so many photos and insights to share, but first here are some panoramas I took with my camera.

Through Trained Eyes

Stacey Nerding Out Over a F-16

While in Florida this October, I stopped by Crestview, to visit S, one of my closest friends since high school. Crestview is a small Air Force town, sitting right on the outskirts of Eglin Air Force base, so I did not expect much as far as tourism goes. Her husband, Danny, suggested we check out the Armament Museum on base, I thought it would be a huge snooze-fest. I knew next to nothing about jet mechanics and history of aeronautics. Fortunately, S is a former jet mechanic for the Air Force (yes, a female jet mechanic) and lucky us bumped into the museum’s director on the way in, who generously gave us an enthusiastic exclusive tour! What I thought would be a quick 15 minute fly by turned out to be a very thorough walk through. It makes such a huge difference when you are able to learn first hand from people who are so passionate about their field!

Wall of Posters & Blocks at Hatch Show Print

My road trip to Nashville, Tennessee ended with a high note – a trip to Hatch Show Print! This print shop is renowned in the print world, it is the oldest running letterpress shop in America. The front serves as a gift shop, the back as a studio and print shop. My friends and I were also very lucky to get a small private tour of the entire space by the manager, Jim Sherraden! Read on for more photos!
