Artist in Residence Glacier NP (Jan 11 2024)

Imma Barrera specializes in astrophotography, her Under the Night Sky project draws attention to fighting light pollution.  She described the national park artist in residence program and what life was like living in Glacier for a month.  Always be alert for grizzly bears!  She showcased numerous milky way images but smoke from west coast wildfires led to more images of animals and landscapes.  Being far north, at the Canadian border, meant long days and long golden hours in summer.  The smoke, while not good for the night sky, meant impressive sunrises and sunsets.  Images taken from the same location during the day and at night were quite interesting.
