I spent a portion of my afternoon going in circles with a Meta AI support chatbot to no avail. Then, just now, I tried to get this new “improved” AI Siri to record a couple measurements in a Note while my hands were full. She “wasn’t able to process my request”. Seriously. What are we doing?

The 2027 edition of my annual nightscape/landscape photography calendar is ready to go and now available for pre-order. I’ve opted for a sleeker, more minimalist single-page design this year that puts the focus on the photos. Save 15% if you pre-order before October 28th. ➡️ bradperry.art xox BP

Follow up Harvest Festival mystery that I forgot all about… I had a bottle of hand sanitizer at my little station for post-portapotty wash ups. I left it sitting there overnight on Thurs/Fri. On Saturday morning, it was nowhere to be found and had been replaced with a little tub of Vaseline. ????

I started bringing my own bottle of hand sanitizer to the festival because those hand wash stations of recycled water give me the ick.

Didn’t have a chance to edit it until now, but I took this the night before Harvest instead of getting to bed early like a good little Brad. September 16, 2026 – 11:07pm Jemseg NB #milkyway #photography #astrophotography

Back-to-back Sloan and JSB at the Barracks tent last night. BRAD-O-METER: 🤩😃😀🙂😐😕😶‍🌫️🫥 🟩◻️◻️◻️◻️◻️◻️◻️

Last night’s moon setting behind the New Brunswick Legislative Assembly Building. Looks like my camera isn’t dead yet! 🌒 #moon #crescentmoon #moonset #photography

Timelapse of the August 12, 2026 partial solar eclipse as seen from central New Brunswick. This is 2036 individual photos taken over the course of two hours. #eclipse #solareclipse #partialsolareclipse #timelapse

Just an FYI that a week from right around now (Wednesday afternoon), we will experience another partial solar eclipse. For Spain/Iceland, this will be a total eclipse. Here in Eastern Canada, we will only see a partial eclipse w/ 40-60% of the sun being blocked, depending on where you are.

Went out onto the deck at 3am to try to photograph this whole “Falcon striking the Moon” business. I took as many photos per second as my camera would allow from 3:32am until 3:38am. I dunno, man. If it’s in there, I don’t see it. Anyway, here’s a stacked image using ~half of the frames captured.

Played a super fun little GTB set at Area 506 last night. Then a seagull shit on my head just as Marcy Playground was about to play Sex & Candy. Anyway, here’s a pic of Crash Test Dummies. #blessed

Midnight. Standing at the edge of the glassy expanse. Hearing the frogs. Watching the fireflies. July 9, 2026 – 12:08am Mactaquac Headpond #milkyway #astrophotography

Bought Microsoft Flight Sim 2024 for PS5, which lets you freely fly literally anywhere on earth in VR since it relies on existing satellite imagery and photogrammetry recreate the terrain. Pretty mind blowing. First place I visited was the Great Pyramids of Giza. The second place…Fredericton. 🫠

1) Forgot to alt text the video: Video game screen capture of a VR cockpit view of a sunset flight over Fredericton NB. 2) RIP Bill Thorpe Walking Bridge. I guess it didn’t render it because it isn’t a road?

A plan and a nap. A pin on a map. An hour long drive. The clearest of skies. Jemseg NB May 9, 2026 – approx. 2:30am #milkyway #nightscape #astrophotography

SPLASHDOWN!!! Three cheers for science, engineering, research, curiosity, cooperation. Look what the fuck we can do when we ask big questions, work together, and fund our scientists. Congratulations, NASA. Congratulations, humanity!

You've never known heartbreak like waiting hours for an Enya song to download on Limewire only to discover it's a mislabeled Loreena McKennitt mp3

I’ve had a very specific full moon alignment photo planned out for over two years now and it will finally take place tonight at 7:30pm…when it will be 100% overcast. Oh well. I will just try again next month… … … … … …April Fool’s! It doesn’t happen again until August 29, 2034. 🥴
