Would you stand in a dark field for 4 hours to create this? Is it weird that it makes me happier than almost anything else?

AI bros are COOKED! I created this entire sequence with my camera, using human skills. Something like this would have cost dozens of dollars in prompting, but for me it was completely free.

Truly can't imagine a better use of your time and money than traveling to see the world. I am genuinely a better person now for having experienced places like this, a person with more empathy, more resilience, and a broader understanding of the world and the people in it.

For me, getting a northern lights reflection is the holy grail of nature photography. Requires an absolutely incredible amount of patience and luck, but the results are hard to beat.

Have you ever seen the dancing of the northern lights?

Any love for some cute little Norwegian cabins?

“I’ve been obsessed with Origami lately, so I decided to play on my computer instead” Literally could not ask for a more on-the-nose example of how AI makes you lazy and unskilled.

Tomorrow I fly back to the Lofoten Islands in the Norwegian Arctic. Last year the first night we arrived I filmed this outrageous combination of full moon rainbow combined with Northern Lights. Hard to imagine how this year could top it, but fingers crossed!

Nice night out on a boat in Greenland last night.

Moments like these, cooking dinner over an open fire, sitting on the shores of the amazing Fort Peck Reservoir in Montana, watching a storm roll through at sunset into a beautiful rainbow. Moments like these are why I’m so passionate about being outside and seeing the world around us. 

Forever dreaming of Greenland

Protect America's Wild Spaces

Just got home from Botswana, forever changed

America's public lands are perhaps the single greatest asset our country has. Protected wilderness, open space parks, BLM, Forest Service, and grazing lands are without a doubt our richest resource, and aside from generating *literally* trillions in revenue, they're also vital for our survival.

This is why we have Pride Month: because in many places simply the act of loving someone of the same sex can result in years of attacks culminating in a murder. This is a devastating, and senseless, loss. RIP Jonathan Joss.

Happy Easter

I've recently started a new project called "Film The Wild." A collection of peaceful, long-form clips from the most beautiful places in the world set to relaxing music. Perfect for studying, yoga, bedtime, etc. youtu.be/xilveTYiQLU?...

I’m a human being and I created this art without the help of AI because I took the time to learn how.

The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, or ANWR, in springtime. Approximately 0°F.

Nights like these ❤️

Now that’s what I call a bridge

I want to love Bluesky but literally every aspect of it is worse: - image quality - file size (extremely limiting for video) - upload time - no HDR support - no edit button Idk man, I want to use this platform but it’s a real slog.

Don’t mind me, just watching the northern lights dance over the oceanr

When the mountain casts Avada Kedavra (Alternate title: Jewish Space Lasers)

As I sit on the plane flight home I’m surprised to be feeling melancholy. Usually the end of a long trip brings relief as I finally get to relax & catch up on sleep. A full month of this view directly out my back window centered me, and I’ll miss the peace and spectacular scenery of northern Norway

Real-time video of the northern lights from last night 😍🤯

People keep defending AI by saying it won’t take any jobs from creatives, but this post very literally shows otherwise. A person with a camera and even somewhat moderate competance could have made this in less than an hour. This is disgusting and embarrassing for the Mets staff.

A photo that looks like a painting

This is perhaps the most outrageous thing I've ever captured. A moonbow (rainbow made from moonlight rather than sunlight), with snow (rather than rain) with the northern lights behind it. A Polar Lunar Snowbow?

The other night I captured something I never thought I'd see: a lunar rainbow (rainbow, but from moonlight), with the northern lights behind.

Sunset tonight was pretty special 😍

I subscribe to the Good Burger Theory of Non-Heteronormative Gender Conformity in which Kel Mitchell and Less Than Jake et al., postulate that "I'm a dude, he's a dude, she's a dude, we're all dudes, hey." In this essay I will…

If we liquidated Elon every American would get like a little thimbleful of red goop, which I actually think would be a nice little souvenir

The same bridge in Norway, 3 separate ways. And then a different bridge, because it looks nice and fits well in this carousel. Just figured y'all might want some variety. Love you.

This is an iPhone photo from last night 🤯

Allow me to help

This is the view from the cabin I’m staying in for the next month 😍😍😍 (Lofoten, Norway)

Yesterday was the 1-year anniversary of where I proposed to @autpops so it feels very fitting that today we are boarding a plane back to this very same spot. Maybe I’ll propose again, idk.
