Mars and Jupiter

Published by astronomydude

A voracious reader and photographer who is now retired from retail. I love to express my artistic talents through photography. Recently I have added writing to that expression. A lifelong punster, I love wordplay and the one-liner. I found that I always wanted to know the "why" in things and that has led me to research various conspiracies and historical events to find that "why." Some of the things that have piqued my curiosity will be covered eventually in this blog. From the battle of the Little Bighorn, the sinking of the Titanic, the assassination of JFK, the Coriolis effect, ghosts to anything astronomy related are all subjects I have already or plan to cover. In photography I have always loved the technically difficult subject. Catching the wings of a hummingbird was an early goal. Then an eagle fishing, a trout swimming under the water and the elusive moose were all subjects I finally captured. Stereo photography has always intrigued me ever since that first disc went into my View Master. Astrophotography was an early challenge and continues to be a passion. The growth of the hobby has far surpassed my ability to keep up (as in money). Expect a little of everything in the future. Let's geek out together. View more posts
