As the auroral storm, shown in some of the previous pix, subsided, a subtle aquamarine glow veiled part of the starry sky, containing some nice red streaks, evidence of some pretty high energy pulses from the sun.
Northern Lights seen from the middle of (very solidly frozen over ) Kluane Lake, Yukon Territory, , using a 40 year old Fujica ST705 camera and a Russian Zenitar 16mm lens, loaded with NEW Fujifilm Natura 1600.(25 seconds)

Just about 2 more feet of snow dumped on us yet again.
Trolls mopped the floor... Bad guys win and so does daddy since they had a blast playing with it! =)
A couple of shots showing the damage to a derelict 150 year old listed warehouse at Gloucester Docks after a huge blaze tore through it yesterday evening. Firemen were still at the scene this morning as I walked past.
This is how it looked 3 years ago...

I’ve hooked up the 430ex II flash to the sound triggering device. I figured I’d do some tests to check the flash duration. I pulled the aquarium with the holes in the side off the shelf. It has been used numerous times to get photos of things breaking when hit with BBs. Unfortunately, my tests have shown that even at the lowest power the 430ex II does not have a short enough flash duration to capture a good image of a fast moving BB.
However, the aquarium was still full of broken ornaments from last years ornament breaking shot. So, I decided to do some photos of the ornaments using the flash mounted in different positions off camera. This one was taken with the flash at ¼ power and about 3 feet above the ornaments pointed almost straight down.
A shot of the old CGW bridge in Waterloo, IA (see previous shot) weeks after four of the eight spans were pushed off their piers in June of 2008. It took till Oct of 2009 to get funding and approval for the rebuilding. Amazingly, all the Plate Girders dumped in the river were reused. Heat straightening and I believe new floor beams were used. Three piers had to be demolished and rebuilt.
The aftermath of a shock wave colliding with a low density bubble from a joint KAUST-TUM project that developed an adaptively refined mesh capability for a hyperbolic PDE solver, by combining the Peano code (developed at TUM) and the PyClaw code (developed at KAUST). The project involved Prof. David Ketcheson and Aron Ahmadia at KAUST, and Tobias Weinzierl and Kristof Unterweger from TUM.
My alarm did not go off this morning but I woke up to the sound of an old roaring acco and it was the old spare MkIV that took the recycling today but by the time I ran outside he was already onto my neighbours bin so I went to bring in my bin and saw this!!!! It came close again!!! But the old MkIV collected my Darebin240L bin fine but I think the reason it slipped this time is because he gripped it so high as this is the highest ive ever seen a 240L bin in Moreland being gripped.
Squadron 799 is at least 6 miles from the nearest dropship station. That devastating event left us for dead. Wounded and down a troop, we can't afford to lose another.

Me and El used to hang out up here all the time with the gang.

Alpha Leader: "You alright, sir?"
Morello: "Yeah, yeah. Thanks, though. I appreciate it."
Alpha Leader: "We're not out yet. We still have to get off the ship."

Might build more scenes after this, might not.
2 days after the bush fires at Winmalee.
We heard of a man who stayed in his little house overnight to defend it against the fires, armed with only a tank if water and a hose. He was very lucky the tank didnt run out before the rural fire services could contain it. Fighting a giant fire from all four corners of his house, I can't imagine that terror.
Rarely do "mirror self portraits", but was freezing, so I made an exception.
I just did a "mudrun" which basically consisted of getting up super early after not sleeping much, putting on an old high school track jersey, tiny tiny shorts, and water wings (sadly absent here, I popped one on the couse and took them off so the car didn't get too dirty). It was FREEZING, and about 1000 feet into the course, we had to ford a river. Great start...rest of the course was jumping over walls, slip and slide, hay bales, cargo nets, etc, finished by a MASSIVE mud pit you had to basically swim through to get under a bunch of flags.
Followed by one of the best showers, ever.
Happy Halloween all!
