1. Arm Check!, 2. Ah, still smells nice and fresh :-)
Thought you guys might enjoy my odd sense of humor this weekend. This is a diptych when junior was about a week old.
For those following the saga, I just found out that the Princess's simple handpainting has been used by this "ColourLovers" site in addition to the one I mentioned yesterday. The sad part about the site I found today is that it says it is for creative folks (who should know better). I wonder if these brainiacs (NOT!) realize that if they ask permission and use a photo they will likely drive new hits and possibly customers? I would call their approach "stupid" but the Princess would scold me for using a bad word ;-)
Not gonna let the losers get me down though :-) So feel the love and let's have some fun this weekend! Thanks for all the comments, visits and faves!
In den zwanziger Jahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts hatte die Industrie das Gebiet der heutigen Stadt Oberhausen fest im Griff: Fördertürme, Kokereien und Eisenhütten prägten hier wie in anderen Teilen des Ruhrgebiets das Bild. Doch deren Vernetzung funktionierte noch nicht in allen Bereichen optimal. Zwar wurde das Gichtgas, das in den Eisenhütten der Gutehoffnungshütte (GHH) erzeugt wurde, bereits genutzt, um die Kokerei in Osterfeld zu befeuern. Doch sobald die Eisenverarbeitung stockte, musste bei der Kokserzeugung Kohle oder Öl verbrannt werden. Umgekehrt fackelte die Hütte ihr Gas ungenutzt ab, sobald der Kokereibetrieb nicht reibungslos lief. Der Gasometer sollte die so entstehenden Verluste beheben, indem er Gas speicherte und nach Bedarf wieder abgab.
Im Februar 1927 wurde mit seinem Bau begonnen, und nach knapp zwei Jahre stand am Rhein-Herne-Kanal der mit 117,5 m Höhe und einem Durchmesser von 67,6 m größte Gasbehälter Europas. Am 15. Mai 1929 wurde das damalige Meisterwerk der Ingenieurbaukunst in Betrieb genommen.
1,74 Millionen Reichsmark hatte sein Bau gekostet – Geld, das gut angelegt war, denn der Betrieb rechnete sich schon nach dem ersten Jahr. Zunächst wurde er mit dem energetisch armen Gichtgas gefüllt, das als Abfallprodukt in den Hochöfen anfiel. Später nahm er das hochwertigere Koksgas der Kokerei Osterfeld auf und versorgte damit hauptsächlich die umliegenden Industrieanlagen bis hin zur Ruhrchemie in Holten.
Im Zweiten Weltkrieg wurde der Oberhausener Gasbehälter mehrere Male von Bomben getroffen, musste aber erst kurz vor Kriegsende im Januar 1945 stillgelegt werden. Nach dem Krieg geriet er 1946 bei Reparaturarbeiten in Brand und wurde daraufhin bis auf das Fundament abgetragen. Beim Wiederaufbau, der bis 1949 dauerte, konnten verschiedene Konstruktionselemente, unter anderem das Dach, weiterverwendet werden.
Nachdem der Koksbedarf stagnierte, wurde die Kokerei in Oberhausen geschlossen. Und deren Gas ersetzte man zunehmend durch Erdgas, das über Pipelines angeliefert wurde. Der Gasometer wurde überflüssig, seine Stilllegung erfolgte 1988.

Prise aujourd'hui, entre deux circulations de trains.
Faut bien s'occuper.
Et je ne doute pas que beaucoup auront la référence.
Ein erster Versuch mit der kleinen Drohne: Leider war es doch seeeehr windig und das arme kleine Ding kam kaum gegen an.
The eastern harbour arm at the entrance to The Port of Newhaven, East Sussex. My intention was to get some of those enticing 10 stop exposures for a milky sea but it was as calm as a mill pond. Not even any waves!
This is Knik Arm, which is located to the West of Anchorage, Alaska. Taken on a walk on the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail, which runs along the edge of the waters of Knik Arm for almost the entire North-South extent of Anchorage. this is an HDR image to capture the extreme range of light in this image.

This is a panorama along about 60° of the northern summer Milky Way from Cepheus at left, to Cygnus at centre and at right. It frames the great variety of bright and dark nebulas in this region of the sky, notably:
- the circular IC 1396 nebula at left in Cepheus with the orange Garnet Star,
- the North America Nebula (NGC 7000) just left of centre,
- and the IC 1318 complex around Gamma Cygni just right of centre.
The dark Funnel Cloud Nebula, aka Le Gentil 3, is at left between IC 1396 and NGC 7000, while the dark region to the right (south) of NGC 7000 is the Northern Coal Sack, though to the eye, as here, that area does not appear as dark as the Funnel Cloud area.
The bright Cygnus Starcloud is right of centre, where we are looking down the Milky Way's spiral arm we live in. It is bordered below by the Cygnus Rift of dark lanes in the Milky Way which continue south into Aquila.
The small (on this scale) Wizard Nebula (NGC 7380) and Lion Nebula (Sh2-132) are at far left in Cepheus.
The small round red Cocoon Nebula, IC 5146, is at the end of a thin lane of dark dust, B168, or the Dark Cigar, at bottom left, while the tiny green Dumbbell Nebula, M27 in Vulpecula, is just visible at bottom right.
This is a stitch using Photoshop's Photomerge function of 10 segments, each segment a stack of 8 to 10 exposures of 1-minute each with the Canon RF135mm lens at f/2 on the red-sensitive Canon Ra camera at ISO 800. All on the Star Adventurer tracker.
The camera was turned to portrait orientation to align the long dimension of the frame across the width of the Milky Way for greater east-west coverage. This required moving the camera by only 5° from segment to segment to ensure enough overlap. I used a ball head with an additional panorama azimuth motion with degree gradations on it to faciliate panning along the Milky Way following the galactic equator using just one simple motion.
The lens had an 82mm URTH Night broadband light pollution reduction filter on it to help increase contrast and bring out the nebulas. No narrowband filters were used here. Even so, most of the contrast enhancement was in processing with the application of a Nik Collection 6 Pro Contrast filter, plus curves with luminosity masks, and a Nebula Filter action in PhotoKemi Startools actions.
Taken from home on a fine though not fully transparent night on May 14/15, 2023 when the time for shooting this area was limited due to the short spring night. Two more segments shot to the right farther down the Milky Way were too blue and struck by dawn twilight to be usable.

ARM Cuauhtémoc is a sail training vessel of the Mexican Navy, named for the last Mexica Hueyi Tlatoani Cuauhtémoc who was captured and executed in 1525.
She is the last of four sister ships built by the Naval Shipyards of Bilbao, Spain, in 1982, all built to a design similar to the 1930 designs of the German firm Blohm & Voss, like Gorch Fock, USCGC Eagle and the NRP Sagres Portugal
Like her sister ships, Colombia's Gloria, Ecuador's Guayas and Venezuela's Simón BolÃvar, Cuauhtémoc is a sailing ambassador for her home country and a frequent visitor to world ports, having sailed over 400,000 nautical miles (700,000 km) in her 23 years of service, with appearances at the Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Races, ASTA Tall Ships Challenges, Sail Osaka, and others.
Taken along the Turnagain Arm just beyond Bird Point, about 30 miles Southeast of Anchorage, Alaska. After missing a spectacular sunrise this morning, I found this gorgeous lighting.
Last night I headed up to Arms Tor on Dartmoor for sunset, it was more of a scouting mission as I've never been there before but it was a lovely evening. There wasn't much cloud in the sky at sunset so there wasn't much colour, but as this was a scouting mission I didn't really mind. I met up with Dianne Giles, Another Dartmoor photographer and we had a good chat while getting our photos.
It's another new tor bagged for me, each time I head up the moors now I'm trying to get to a different location so I can explore more of the moor.

took some shots of this martial arts Capoeira group by the beach....they do improvised fighting movements while chanting and singing
