On my way to Twenty Nine Palms I stopped by a wind farm located in North Palm Springs for a quick time-lapse photo sequence as the scenery of those giant turbines and the clouds was irresistible; then I drove to the Sky’s The Limit Observatory and Nature Center before getting into Joshua Tree. There was a special event for astronomy enthusiasts open to the general public at the observatory.

This has been our first short trip to Boston, Massachusetts. Every time I plan for a trip to a new city I usually spend a significant amount of time doing research about where to capture the skyline and the availability of public transportation. I also make a list of public parks with nice views and the hours they are open so I go straight to the point when I arrive. The weather was fine the first day but we had to deal with temperatures dropping overnight for the rest of our stay.

This year Randy had the opportunity to visit Mexico several times. The photo sequences from México City and Quintana Roo are unbelievable. The Mexican culture is so rich and eclectic that I would recommend everyone to visit that country at least 5 times. I have been to Baja California only, which is so easy for me because I live just a few hours from the border crossing but I will talk about that in the future.

This month Randy took the camera out to capture sunsets in this beautiful city. The weather has been almost perfect in August. Long days and colorful skies after 6 pm. We are constantly working on creating new material for our Québec Deluxe time-lapse photography project.

Today has been the busiest day for Randy and myself in New York City. I started capturing the clouds over midtown from Brooklyn’s Greenpoint and Randy went to Central Park and surrounding areas.

Today I went to Queens to capture the sunset from the 40th Street station. The number of trains arriving at this station in the afternoon during rush hour is simply unbelievable.
