iss067e174420 (July 2, 2022) --- The Nanoracks Bishop Airlock is pictured in the grips of the Canadarm2 robotic arm as it is positioned away from the International Space Station. The commercial platform was being maneuvered prior to jettisoning a trash container for a fiery, but safe disposal above Earth's atmosphere. Bishop is a multi-faceted airlock attached to the Tranquility module used not only to discard trash, but also to host research payloads, deploy satellites, and serve as a testbed for a variety of space technologies. At right, the Canadarm2 is attached to the U.S. Destiny laboratory module as ground controllers remotely maneuver the robotic arm.
Noah and Elijah snuggling up.
I guess I was a little cockeyed with this capture... oh well. :) I like how Noah has his arm around Elijah's neck.

This picture is for the group Happy Caturday and this week the theme is "Winter Nap".
Since I had a couple of doctors appointments this week I wasn't able to take a new photo of the boys napping so I thought I'd post an older one.
We have a basket with a pillow in it by the fireplace that the boys like to curl up in to take nap. Usually only one of them nap here at a time. This day Elijah decided he wanted to scrunch in next to Noah.
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!
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.
Taken on the way to go skiing at Alyeska on Inauguration Day. A nice bonus to an already happy day. 1/20/21- The end of an error! Taken at the Beluga Point pullout, about 10 miles Southeast of Anchorage on the Seward Highway.

Stu was exercising and Shizandra put her head in the curve of his arm. She is quite a character!

Today, my 96 year old father peacefully passed from this life into the next. This is a digital painting from a photo taken in 2014 with my mother and father walking down a path, arm in arm the way they walked through life and their 70 years of marriage.
I am so grateful for their example of love and devotion to one another, their family, and the Savior Jesus Christ.
This stunning 30+ mile-long narrow fjord, carved by ancient glaciers and part of the vast Tracy Arm-Fords Terror Wilderness within Tongass National Forest, delivers jaw-dropping drama: sheer granite cliffs soaring up to 4,000 feet, countless plunging waterfalls misting the air, emerald-jade waters dotted with brilliant blue icebergs, and at the head, the twin Sawyer Glaciers (North and South Sawyer)—tidewater behemoths that calve with thunderous "white thunder" roars as massive ice chunks crash into the sea.
Naturalist John Muir called it "one of the most dramatically stunning fjords of Southeast Alaska" and likened it to a "wild, unfinished Yosemite." Harbor seals lounge on floating bergs (especially pups in safety), bald eagles soar overhead, and you might spot humpback whales, sea lions, bears, or mountain goats along the rugged shores.
Most visitors experience it via scenic cruising on Alaska Inside Passage itineraries (smaller/mid-size ships navigate the tight turns best) or full-day boat tours/excursions from Juneau (about 45 miles south). Ice conditions can shift plans to nearby Endicott Arm and Dawes Glacier, but the beauty remains epic either way. Best in summer (May-September) for milder weather, active calving, and wildlife—though layers, rain gear, and binoculars are musts!
Pro tip: Book a smaller vessel tour for closer glacier approaches and fewer crowds—it's one of Alaska's most unforgettable, pristine natural spectacles.

We went to a remote place in California's Mojave desert to launch a big rocket called HARP - High Altitude Rocketry Program. My son was leading a team of San Jose State University students to build and launch the rocket. Shortly before launch he is arming the sustainer (upper stage) with help from a big machine.
I processed a balanced HDR photo from a RAW exposure, and carefully adjusted color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive feedback.
