Empire State Building, 1 World Trade Center and Statue of Liberty diagonally aligned on a sunny winter's day in New York
On the evening after solstice the setting crescent moon was aligned in the western sky with Mars and Venus. Venus is the brightest natural object in the sky after the Moon and seen here at Porth Nanven after sunset.

Once The View, a prolonged failure and now rekindled and called Bay House. And the project is really being seen thru now.
In the caption of the previous pic I stated that it was the last one of the Sigma test series. But I forgot this one ;-)

Wat Saket, or the Golden Mount temple in Bangkok. On a few days each year the alignment is just right when looking from a parking deck of a hotel not too far away. Weather and security guards permitting ;)
i hit lucky on a day back in 2017.

A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks sunlight. This occurs when the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned. Such alignment coincides with a new moon (syzygy) indicating the Moon is closest to the ecliptic plane. In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses, only part of the Sun is obscured.

this was a pre-dawn shot from last weekend, I was trying for that "silky" water effect but an added bonus was catching the planetary alignment of Jupiter, Mercury & Venus still visible in the top left corner. Lucky thing, don't think I'll be around for the next one !

Callanais standing stones, Isle of Lewis, Hebrides, Scotland.

These megaliths have stood for the best part of 5000 years. There are a total of 46 stones arranged in pattern resembling a cruciform, but the alignments are not consistent and don’t all point to the central stone, an impressive five metre high, eight tonne monoltih. The stones fell out of use in the Bronze Age and were turfed over. Their true height an number were only revealed in 1857 when 1.5 metres of peat was removed. When you walk amongst the stones, on the edge of the present day village of Callanish, you begin to appreciate the location. Elevated over the natural harbour that is Loch Roag, with splendid views to the mountains of Harris and the isle of Great Bernera, home to a large Neolithic community.

The stone circle was used for hundreds of years and the complex extended in multiple phases. It remains unclear why the stones were erected. There is some alignment to the phases of the moon, but this may be a coincidence. The circle was home to a burial cairn, but this is in a later phase of use. Whether they represented ancestors, were a place of ritual or were an observatory, the stones certainly would have been an enormous undertaking that would have galvanised and provided an identity for a community for centuries. The stones are a popular attraction today and there are several other impressive circles within close walking distance.

Seek, and you will find. It amazes me how certain elements within nature just come together. Its kinda like peanut butter and jelly. I scouted this area out for sometime when I came across this section of mud tiles that caught my eye. I noticed that this small section had the perfect pyramid formation that pointed straight out into the badlands.
Hope all you guys out there are doing well. Summer is almost over! YAY!!!!! Stay cool out, the fall is almost here.
Lots of new images coming soon!!! Peace and Love.
