The object in the middle of this image, sitting alone within a star-studded cosmos, is a galaxy known as ESO 486-21. ESO 486-21 is a spiral galaxy — albeit with a somewhat irregular and ill-defined structure — located some 30 million light-years from Earth.
The Hubble Space Telescope observed this object while performing a survey — the Legacy ExtraGalactic UV Survey (LEGUS) — of 50 nearby star-forming galaxies. The LEGUS sample was selected to cover a diverse range of galactic morphologies, star formation rates, galaxy masses, and more. Astronomers use such data to understand how stars form and evolve within clusters, and how these processes affect both their home galaxy and the wider universe. ESO 486-21 is an ideal candidate for inclusion in such a survey as it is known to be in the process of forming new stars, which are created when large clouds of gas and dust (seen here in pink) within the galaxy crumple inwards upon themselves.
LEGUS made use of Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS). The WFC3 obtained detailed observations of the target objects while the ACS obtained what are known as parallel fields — instead of leaving ACS idle, it was instead trained on a small patch of sky just offset from the target field itself, allowing it to gather additional valuable information while the primary target was being observed by WFC3. Parallel fields played an important role in Hubble’s Frontier Fields program, which used the magnifying power of large galaxy clusters (via a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing) to explore objects in the distant universe.

With a turn in the water, I turned back to the macro lens for some small animal photography. Here's one of the many blue-banded gobies all over the reefs.
Okay, I need to stop, I know.
Сегодня закончила читать "Любовь во время холеры" Габриэля Гарсии Маркеса. Прекрасная книга, мне будет ее не хватать. Маркес невероятно точно и выразительно передает реалии жизни, со всеми ее нелицеприятными деталями, и в то же время добавляет в повествование что-то нереально, даже фантастичное.
Это самая необычная история любви которую я встречала. О разной любви, которая сопровождает нас всю жизнь. Любовь юности, пылкая и нетерпеливая, зрелая любовь в браке, которая больше похожа на слаженный танец, который можно отточить до совершенства, и о той бессмертной любви, которая переживает все остальное, и растворяет в себе все что было до и будет после нее.
Я под впечатлением, даже не хочется пока ничего нового начинать...
In een mum van tijd was het oude relaishuis gesloopt en op deze foto is men bezig met de laatste loodjes van het slopen van het relaishuis.
In no time the old relayroom was knocked down. In this picture one was busy with the demolishing the last remains from the relayroom.
A simple portrait of you speaks volumes. Those sparkly eyes and that beautiful shy smile tell me you haven't lost your imagination or infinite curiosity.
And your features will be slightly different in the months and weeks from today. You have long lost the full baby face you claimed for so many years and in it's place are those cheekbones much like my own. But the freckles. The freckles seem to be here to stay and that makes my heart happy. Those are from daddy and I prayed you would get them.
I thought I would be terrified of the teenage years, but oh Lily. I am so loving getting to know you. You are lovely.

(Yeah)
Cut off the balls of my feet
Made me walk on salt
Take me down to the police
Charge me with assault
Smile on her face
She does what she wants to me
That's right and
She don't care what kind of wounds she's inflicted on me
She don't care what color bruises that she's leavin' on me
'Cuz she's got freedom in the 21st century
(Alright)
(Listen)
Two black gadgets in her hands
All she thinks about
No responsibility no guilt or morals
Cloud her judgement
Smile on her face
She does what she damn well please
(Right)
And she don't care about the things people used to do
She don't care that what she does has an effect on you
She's got freedom in the 21st century
Cut off the balls of my feet (Cut off the balls of my feet)
Make me walk on salt (Make me walk on salt)
Take me down to the police (Take me down to the police)
Done with the 24-105 28mm, F22 and 15s. I was doing shots for my Heidelberg Exposed series, when I drove past this Lowrider and saw the shine of the rims. I parked the car right infront of it leaving the headlights on and shot this from a very low tripod almost lying on the sidewalk. Good thing it is summer :)

Lola is a promoter at the Huawei stand in the Mall of Emirates.
Lola and my stranger #20 (Erika) were working for the same company. After taking Erika's photo, I just had to ask for Lola's as well. Loved that red curly hair. Even with all the different kinds of people living in Dubai, I had not been able to photograph a red head before. I actually did see a beautiful lady with red hair about a month ago but did not have the guts to go up to her at the time :|
Anyway, thanks Lola for letting me take your photo! :)

Warum zeige ich dieses Bild mit einem Tag Verspätung?
Weil ich doof bin und es gestern vergessen habe....
Ich trug meinen roten Trachtenrock mit der hübschen weißen Rüschenbluse, helle Strümpfe und weiße Pumps.
Es war ein wenig kühl an diesem Morgen, daher war die rote Strickjacke eine gute Idee.
Und um die Sache rund zu machen, der Unterrock...
Ich fand mich damals hübsch, und auch heute noch gefallen mir die Bilder richtig gut.
Why did i show you this picture a day later?
´cause u´m stupid and forgott it yesterday...
Well, i´d wear my red countrystyle skirt, my white ruffled blouse, some tan hose and white heels.
It was a little bit chilly this morning, so i thought my red cardie would be a good idea.
For me my slip is the icing on the cake...
I thought i look nice these days, and still like the pictures...
TF-21, die Straße zum Teide.
So ein Bild, welches ja in Amerika auch gern gemacht wird, war schon immer mal ein Traum von mir. Hier bot es sich an.
Tage vorher hab ich es schon mal zur "Rushhour" versucht, aber da kann man ständig von der Straße hüpfen. Morgens hingegen kann man die Autos die einem da begegnen an einer Hand abzählen.
The Type 21 is amphibious with its waterjets in the rear, although it is not nearly as fast in the water as it is on road.
So I am in Ashbourne, County Meath, with a fellow photographer, and we call in to the recently opened "Ashbourne Photography Centre", where I met my new stranger.
Michael has a fantastic set-up in the new centre. It includes , individual CPU's for photography students, twin enlarger darkroom facility for film development and B&W traditional fine art printing, and a full professional studio set-up.
Michael is standing in front of some of his images, which were part of his Bachelor of Arts Honors Degree in Photographic Studies. Michael's project was called, "Fragments" , a 12 month long research into the aftermath of road fatalities here in Ireland.
Thank you Michael, and the best of luck with the centre.

"Forever 21 is an American chain of clothing retailers with branches in major cities in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East that offers trendy clothing and accessories for young women, men, and teen girls at low quality, affordable prices."
I chose Forever 21 for this challenge, and I was particularly inspired but an specific collection: The Cirque 21 Collection. Loved those playful and colorful ads!
I'd also like to apologise for being late for this challenge. I really didn't want to cause any trouble and I promise it won't happen again.

Gosaikund is located in the Langtang region of Nepal. Langtang area is a popular place to visit among trekkers and pilgrims. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gosaikunda)
The Langtang area is supposed to have 108 holy lakes, of which 85 have been identified. For Hindus Gosaikund is the holiest of these lakes.
According to the Puranas, during Samundra manthan 13 items were released before Dhanvantri emerged with the pot of Amrit. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samudra_manthan)
One of the items that came out was a poison called Halahala. Since, there was no place to safely dispose it off, Shiva agreed to hold it in his throat. But the poison was so potent that it turned his neck blue, hence, the name Neelkanth, and started burning his throat. Since there was no water nearby, Shiva threw his Trishul on ground and the place where the Trishul struck three water fountains spurted out. These became the three lakes: Saraswatikund, Bhairavkund and Gosaikund. After drinking water from Gosaikund Shiva disappeared in the kund.
The poison imparted its blue color to the water of Gosaikund and even today the area around the lake is barren.
