Aurora at Burnt Coat Head

We missed the absolutely epic solar storm the night before, something I’ll regret for a good long while. However the following night forecast still looked pretty good, so we packed up and went out roaming around for a break in the clouds. Burnt Coat Head was where we ended up and I was able to capture this with a long exposure. Not much was visible to the eye. It got even better later that night but we were long gone unfortunately....

Surfers in Mavillette Fog

Found some neat conditions at Nova Scotia’s Mavilette Beach on the cusp of very thick fog, but not fully engulfed. Made for some interesting photos. Fuji’s Classic Neg works nicely on the fog images I think.

My Road to Apple Silicon and Asahi Linux

I recently realized it’s past time to replace my second hand Core i5 ThinkPad T470s, processor can’t seem to handle modern PackageKit, battery is toast, display and sound are just depressing. After a successful multi-decade career as a software engineer, I reasoned it’s probably ok to get some decent hardware for myself for the first time in my life. I am very drawn to the current MacBooks, Apple silicon looks and sounds amazing....

Sunset Waves at Peggy's Cove

Got word the waves were good and spent a couple hours hiking along the coast at sunset. We probably missed the largest ones throughout the day, but as a tradeoff we got some great sunset light and a little cloud rolling in to help add some interest in the sky.
