Photography

Photos from Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile. The big dome holds the Blanco Telescope currently equipped with the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) for the Dark Energy Survey.

Me. I'm a ghost. (Playing tricks with long-exposure photographs.)

Clouds are an astronomer's bane, but make great photos otherwise.

My friendly host! (at bottom, a bit to the right)

The fox enjoys the view too.

Life's about hanging on.

Mountains for miles.

The dorms at the end of the world.

Beautiful sunset. (But I'm 0/38 in seeing a green flash.)
