May 10th & 11th 2024 With so many vastly filled landscapes to choose from the decision was made to stay home and capture the Aurora borealis at the door step of Yellowstone National Park in Gardiner, MT. The Roosevelt Arch welcoming visitors since April of 1903. AWEsome experience and excitement, WOW! 🌌 🌌 🌌 🌌 #VisitGardinerMT #Aurora #auroraborealis #Yellowstoneenthusiasts #Sonya7riv #shotzdelight #lastfrontierinthelower48 #usinterior #forthebenefitandenjoymentofthepeople
What a long, spectacular night it was watching the Aurora dance around the sky and reflect off the lake. I walked around in the river with my waders on and captured this first photo from the middle of the creek. I was here for a good hour after it got dark. I then decided it was showing off so well that I would go to Inez to get some looking south. The rest of the photos. I was hoping the Swan range would show up a little bigger than they did. Next time, I will get closer to the base of them. All in all, it was fun to be out in my favorite place without I single person around, just loons, ducks, owls, and I'm sure some other friends!
🪶 Tumbling, spiraling Aimlessly through the darkness Reeled in by our fates ~ a haiku by Edwin Glass #montana #montanamoment #distinctlymontana #lastbestplace #bigskycountry #haiku #poetographer #photography #adventureawaits #getlost #visitmontana #exploremontana #meteorshower #perseids Speaking of cool space stuff this week, here’s a look back on the Perseids Meteor Shower from last August. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to hang out at Fort Peck Lake, near one of the darkest spots in the US, and watch hundreds of meteors burn up in our atmosphere. Space is neat. 🌌

I didn’t get home until after 1:00am this morning and almost stayed up to edit these before I went to bed because I was so excited to see how they turned out. Pretty good, I’d say.

I’m starting to think about water, so needless to say I’m ready for some of the local high lakes around me to start coming out of their winter thaw. These are some lakes I stumbled across over the years I was living in Montana.
