  • Deep in the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho, the larch trees were turning to gold in late October. The snow capped peak in the distance is Beaver Ridge.

  • The Andromeda Galaxy, despite being  2.5 million light years away, is the biggest and brightest in our sky. It covers an area several times bigger than the diameter of a full moon. If you go to even a moderately dark location it is easy to spot with the naked eye. Several satellite galaxies can also be seen in this picture. This was taken in the Bitterroot Mountains in Idaho which has some of the darkest skies I've ever photographed.

  • I was driving along the incredibly beautiful Elk Meadows Road. Just after crossing the Montana border the road went through a thick evergreen forest with no views. But then I drove around a corner and saw this view. My jaw just dropped. Being from Illinois I had never seen larch trees before. In the summer their needles are green and blend in with the rest of the trees. But in mid-October they completely stand out as they burst into color. The clouds above Lolo Peak were turning to pink as the sun set. I jumped out of my car and tried to capture the light on Lolo Peak before it faded.

  • There were amazing fall colors at Bass Creek on this morning. It was made even more colorful when the early morning sun peeked through the trees.

  • Golden larch trees dot the mountainside below Lolo Peak. As the sunset, a lenticular cloud turned bright pink on the right side of this panorama.

  • The milky way looked stunning at Lily Lake, Idaho. The stars were extra clear because there was no light pollution at all, the weather was perfect, the moon was out of the way, and this was at a higher elevation. The purple spot at the top is known as the North America nebula. The 3 brightest stars in this picture form the summer triangle.

  • Bass Creek is one of dozens of streams that cut through the Bitterroot Mountains in Montana.

  • The milky way sets behind the peaks of the Biterroot Mountains, Montana. This view was seen from Lost Horse Overlook and the pointy peak on the right is Brandy Mountain. The clouds here were repeatedly forming in the same area on the left, hiding some of the milky way.
