Battery Point Lighthouse Sunrise Moon Set One of my favorite shots on my Oregon Coast road trip ended up being on my way back, just into California at Crescent City. On National Geographic I explain why I went out of my way to be here, at this place and time. I used the app The Photographer's Ephemeris on my iPhone to test the concept of a sunrise moon set over the Battery Point Lighthouse in Crescent City and it seemed to work well, so I set up shortly before sunrise to enjoy the anticipated moment as it unfolded. https://yourshot.nationalgeographic.com/photos/12806549/ #landscapephotography #California #astrophotography

Solar Eclipse Road Trip, Here We Come! I can't wait to get on the road to shoot the Great American Eclipse! Crowds are expected to be record-breaking along the path of the solar eclipse coming up August 21. Many areas are trying to implement customer traffic control plans in the narrow path of the moon's shadow. I hear that even porta-potty rentals are in short supply as communities try to cope with the expected crowds. Fortunately I'll be bringing my own facilities with me! Thank you Capital Ford for getting the Ford Motor Company-remanufactured engine in ASAP so we can stake our claim to a great shooting location! I'm working on my landscape photography and night photography workshop schedule for 2018. Drop by my Web site in the coming weeks to see the schedule as it develops! www.JeffSullivanPhotography.com Blog post: http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/2017/08/01/solar-eclipse-road-trip-here-we-come/ #solareclipse #greatamericaneclipse #astrophotography #...

Moon, Jupiter and Venus Conjunction at Mono Lake One of my photos from this moon and planet rise event has been published as the lead photo in an article in the August 2017 SkyandTelescope Magazine by Don Olson, page 68. A description of Don's work to decipher a poem by Lord Byron appears on the Texas State University Web site, along with a copy of the photo: 'Celestial Sleuth' identifies Lord Byron's stellar inspiration http://www.txstate.edu/news/news_releases/news_archive/2017/June-2017/Olson062617.html Here's their description of the photo: "On August 23, 2014, astrophotographer Jeff Sullivan observed the Moon with Jupiter nearby in a morning twilight sky. Glitter paths below three celestial bodies reflect in the waters of California’s Mono Lake in this morning twilight scene captured by astrophotographer Jeff Sullivan. Venus, at lower left, has just risen above the distant hills. Jupiter, with its Galilean satellites visible, stands higher in the sky, ...

Super Moon Rise at Mono Lake, Eastern Sierra, California With the full moon occurring at dawn this month, there were actually two full moon rises close to sunset. This was the first one, captured over Mono Lake in California's Eastern Sierra region.. #easternsierra #california #landscapephotography   #astrophotography

Perseid Meteor Shower 2016 I've been chasing every meteor shower that I could see with my camera since 2009. This year's Perseid meteor shower was one of the best I've experienced so far. These are "work in progress" shots, where I've saved the images with meteors in them, and brought those into one composite image. http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/eastern-sierra-fall-colors-photo-workshops/ #nightphotography   #astrophotography   #photographyworkshops   #easternsierra   #california   #canon   #6D

Tranquility A shot from my testing of the Canon EOS 6D body I picked up last month. I had been shooting it like I had been shooting my Canon EOS 5D Mark III for the past few years, but it turns out, as is often the case, that the newer camera deserves its own unique approach. There's no substitute for performing your own exhaustive research on your new cameras, so you can best integrate any extended capabilities into your workflow. My Bodie, Eastern Sierra and White Mountains/Bristlecone Pines workshop customers will be getting an earful in the next 2 weeks. Even though the 6D is only about a year newer than the 5D Mark III, I couldn't do this with the older model. The 6D model is now a couple of years old, so I have very high expectations for what Canon can accomplish with the rumored 5D Mark IV model that may be coming this fall! #Canon   #astrophotography   #landscapephotography   Jeff Sullivan Photography  www.JeffSullivanPhotography.com

Summer Solstice Sunrise Moon Set On the summer solstice this year the full Strawberry moon set just after sunrise before it rose again shortly after sunset that evening. The last time the full moon came on the summer solstice was in 1967. The next time will be on June 21, 2062, although it'll come close on June 20, 2035. #astrophotography   #easternsierra   #landscapephotography   Jeff Sullivan Photography  www.JeffSullivanPhotography.com
