2017 October road trip up north to Central Nevada along the US 93 in Lincoln County. Places like Pioche, Panaca, Cathedral Gorge State Park, Delmar Valley , and other places in the desert. Butterfly in Kershaw-Ryan Nevada State Park. This the first butterfly that has ever stayed still enough for me to get a good image of.
Crow Butte Park, Benton County, WA. 10-27-17.
This gnatcatcher was enjoying the warm 60 degree weather at Crow Butte Park located on the Columbia River. This appears to be the 2nd record for Benton County, the 7th record for Eastern WA, and the 17th record for WA outside of Neah Bay.
Well, a romper that's a bit complicated to get out of might have not been the best choice for a striptease video ;) I'll try again in the future, I'm sure ;) XO - Kira
Explanation: This alluring telescopic image looks toward the constellation Cepheus and an intriguing visual pairing of dusty reflection nebula NGC 7129 (left) and open star cluster NGC 7142. The two appear separated by only half a degree on the sky, but they actually lie at quite different distances. In the foreground, dusty nebula NGC 7129 is about 3,000 light-years distant, while open cluster NGC 7142 is likely over 6,000 light-years away. In fact, the pervasive and clumpy foreground dust clouds in this region redden the light from NGC 7142, complicating astronomical studies of the cluster. Still, NGC 7142 is thought to be an older open star cluster, while the bright stars embedded in NGC 7129 are perhaps a million years young. The telltale reddish crescent shapes around NGC 7129 are associated with energetic jets streaming away from newborn stars. Surprisingly, despite the dust, far off background galaxies can be seen in the colorful cosmic vista. (text from apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap070913.html)

Many thanks to my colleagues and friends Vasily Oleynik, Edvard Povovich, Igor Dulevich for help in creating this astrophoto.
New video for all my pantyhose fans ;)
Directors note : camera below eye level maybe not the best idea, as it mostly show chins ;)

The dance of La Bruja has the dancers dance with a candle upon their head. No candles were dropped this year.

It was a windy night and my camping chair was wet so I walked alone in the pale moon light as my camera did its work. This is a composite of nearly 400 images and processed using a lighten blend mode in PS. Photoshop allows me to mask out unwanted planes, but it can be a tedious process.
