16-January-2025 - David Mathre Photography

Thursday (16-January-2025) — New Jersey

Nine-Years Ago Today. But I skipped that day crossing the International Date Line. The statue on the forward upper deck of the MV World Odyssey is holding back the sunburst as we crossed the Date Line. (16-Jan-2016, Semester at Sea)

Light Snow Tonight

The forecast for the night was light snow. So, no telescopes out observing for the night. Instead, I had a camera watch out the back door window to observe the Trolls. The camera was set in a fixed apertures mode (f/11) and auto ISO (64-6400) with the shutter speed to vary from 1/100 sec to 32 sec. The time-lapse video was created using PhotoShop and Premier.

I am a scientist, photographer, and world traveler. I worked for 27 years in the Pharmaceutical Industry. Now I spend my time at home waiting to travel again post-pandemic. Since retiring from Merck in 2012, I’ve visited nearly 50 countries — many while on Semester at Sea voyages. My photographic interests include travel and the natural world. I strive to take and post at least one image every day. I also post images taken on this day of the year from the past 10+ years. I am always investigating new cameras, lenses, and photographic techniques as well as image processing techniques. I include information (what, where, when, why) and how images were processed. Most images are available for purchase — either as prints or rights managed at my PhotoShelter Gallery. Comments or questions about the images on my photoblog or gallery are always welcome.
