Kidlapse is now live. This is a service I've been working on that uses machine learning to recognize faces and then rotate and zoom you so get pretty good alignment between each photo. You upload one photo per month and Kidlapse then creates a timelapse movie of your child growing up. If that sounds like something you'd be interested in sign up and give it a try.
The transit of Mercury on November 11, 2019 shot from San Francisco, CA with a Sony RX10 IV with an ND5.0 filter (and a better filter adapter than this one).
This photograph captures a mesmerizing celestial event, the Transit of Mercury, where the small, dark silhouette of the planet Mercury is visible against the vast, glowing disc of the sun. The sun dominates the frame as an enormous, luminous orb, its edges softly blurred, suspended in the velvety depths of space. In the upper right quadrant, Mercury emerges as a minuscule, yet profound presence, a solitary black dot that contrasts starkly with the sun’s warm, golden hue. This image is a tapestry of scale and solitude, revealing the grandeur of the universe through the interplay of light and shadow.
The composition is minimalistic and powerful, evoking awe through its simplicity and cosmic scale. The central placement of the sun adheres to classical composition techniques, offering a sense of balance and focus crucial for astronomical photography. The use of high contrast accentuates Mercury’s diminutive size relative to the sun, emphasizing the vastness of space. Technically, the photo excels with its precise exposure, capturing the sun’s brilliance without overexposure. However, while the minimalism is a strength, it might limit viewer engagement due to the static nature of the image. A dynamic interplay of planetary motion or sunspots could enhance visual interest, providing more context and detail.

This photograph captures a breathtaking moment from the Fleet Week 2019 Air Show, featuring a formation of four U.S. Navy jets painted in striking blue and gold. The planes are captured mid-flight, arranged in a tight diamond formation that showcases both precision and power. The clear blue sky provides a serene backdrop, against which the bold yellow lettering of "U.S. NAVY" on each aircraft stands out prominently. The wings of the jets overlap and intersect, creating a dynamic patchwork of lines, angles, and colors that draw the viewer's eye across the image.
The composition of this photograph is a stellar representation of both symmetry and tension. The tight cropping emphasizes the intricacy of the formation, allowing the viewer to appreciate the skill involved in such close aerial maneuvers. The use of a fast shutter speed ensures crisp focus, capturing the motion of the jets without any blur. This choice conveys the speed and exhilaration of the air show. What stands out most about the photograph is its ability to convey movement and energy solely through composition and contrast. However, one possible critique could be that the tight cropping, while effective in showcasing the formation, leaves little room for the viewer's imagination to wander into the sky beyond. Overall, the photograph is a commendable capture of aerodynamics in action, infused with both vibrancy and precision.
