This was taken in Collegedale, TN, just 20 miles North of Chattanooga. Trains run through Collegedale ALL the time as the McKee Bakery (they make the Little Debbie cakes -- and Collegedale smells wonderful!) is located here. Living in Collegedale, you either love the trains, or you hate them. I lived in Collegedale all throughout college and grad school, and I loved them. I miss not having them as a regular part of my life anymore.
寸又峽是位於川根本町的一個山谷。在早春及秋季葉色更替的時候,這裡是很熱門的旅遊景點。一條專為遊客而建的90分鐘路程的步道被稱為"寸又峽長廊",長廊會帶您穿越大自然一睹寸又峽的美麗風光。
寸又峽的標志是「夢之吊橋」,吊橋橫跨大間川與寸又川的交彙處,這是一條長90米寬8米的吊橋,從吊橋上能欣賞到山谷景物顏色的變化。吊橋載重量每次僅能容納10人,所以在旅游旺季可能需要排隊。傳說中如果年輕女子在吊橋正中間許願,她的願望就能夠實現。

Avocet
A scarce wader, the avocet is about the same size as an oystercatcher, but much more slender. It feeds on aquatic insects, worms and crustaceans, which it finds by sweeping its bill from side-to-side in shallow water. It is often seen on estuaries and mudflats at the coast where it breeds on exposed mud in a dug-out scrape.
The nebula, formally cataloged NGC 6543, was one of the first planetary nebulae to be discovered. It is now known to be one of the most complex such nebulae seen in space. A planetary nebula forms when Sun-like stars gently eject their outer gaseous layers that form bright nebulae with amazing and confounding shapes.
In 1994, Hubble first revealed NGC 6543's surprisingly intricate structures, including concentric gas shells, jets of high-speed gas, and unusual shock-induced knots of gas. (text from Hubble site)
These are all contained in the bright central core, and are difficult to resolve with amateur optics. But if you have not seen the Hubble picture of the core, I recommend you seek it out.
For this image I used two different cameras and two different telescopes. For the dim outer sunflower, I used a Skywatcher MN-190 at 1000 mm focal length. For the core, I used a Vixen VC200L (courtesy of Larry Parker) at 2000 mm focal length.
Exposures were taken in LRGBSHO filters.
For the outer nebula, exposure length was 5 min for RGB and 20 min for SHO. For the core, exposure length was 20 sec for RGB and 100 sec for SHO.
To really do justice to the core requires even shorter exposures with a bigger telescope, and the planetary camera technique of lucky imaging.
