I stacked this image with 3 different exposures to improve my dynamic range, combined in Lightroom. Exposure and color contrast adjustments to represent the natural image also in Lightroom. This shot was actually supposed to be of the larger/closer portion of the San Juans to the right. Heavy clouds were covering the peaks unfortunately. Moving around to alter the perspective, we found this peak in the distance "peaking" out of the clouds. Quick change from wide angle to my telephoto and ...BAMM!
Enjoy! I appreciate your comments and CC.
It was another day full of sunshine so after my chores were done I took an alternate route home to enjoy the view of the mountains. You can see Powell River on the right.
Due to a blazing bright moon on Sunday evening I decided to try and image the iconic Horsehead Nebula in Orion using my narrowband Hydrogen Alpha (Ha) filter.
The first time I have imaged this nebula!
The Horsehead Nebula is a small dark nebula situated just south of Orion's belt and close to the bright star Alnitak, the eastern most star of said belt.
The nebula is approximately 1375 light years from earth and gets its name from its resemblance to a horse's head or a knight chess piece! Although the more I look at it it reminds me of a Seahorse!
The deep red colour originates from ionised Hydrogen gas (Ha) behind the nebula. The energy source being the nearby star Sigma Orionis.
Visible foreground streaks within the ionised gas are due to magnetic forces channelling the gas into streams.
The background strip of glowing hydrogen gas marks the edge of an enormous cloud.
Heavy localized interstellar clouds of dust result in alternate areas of almost complete opacity and transparency within the Horsehead.
The darkness of the Horsehead is caused by this dark, thick dust blocking the starlight behind it.
Imaged with an Esprit 120ED refractor and a ZWO 1600MM camera/Baader Ha filter combo.
44x300s Subs Darks, Flats, Dark Flats
Gain 139 Offset 50
Camera cooled to -10
Processed using Astropixel Processor and Photoshop 2021.
This is a false-coloured Ha filtered image.
Alnitak is on the left edge of the frame with part of the Flame Nebula below it.
Thanks for looking!

Without words across my face.
Can you tell from the image that I'm thinking about how silly I'm feeling. I really wish you guys could see the whole picture. =)

Challenge #44 Abstract alternate This was also taken through the car windshield covered in rain but obviously monochrome.
Walking into the center of the White Pocket is like stepping into another world. Incidentally, this shot shows the landmark's namesake; a pocket in this part of the world is a rocky place that holds rainwater puddles.
One of my alternates for Macro Mondays theme 'mesh' Really had a good time photographing the laundry bag and oddly got more photos of it than the little firemen...lol So, more to come. :o)

Here's another detail shot from my Alternate Transportation cyberpunk scene, just showing one of the buildings I made.

Check out the build log video here on my YouTube.
There's always the chance an eastbound stops at Pitt Holdout and messes with your shot, luckily it's not a complete loss as this angle is still available despite. Almost had a perfect NS in the background too but it was about 5 seconds too fast.
What you're looking at is a scene I shot on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées. I came across a store of some fashion-brand that was covered in mirror-tiles. Looking at this scene I was immediately inspired to take the photograph. It's unreal but it is real...
(On my instagram account you can find a different angle www.instagram.com/p/Ci-EdL-qvar/ )
Enjoy!

I enjoy creating thematic visuals, using my aerial photos as a base. It's a good mental exercise.
Featured are Dubai Marina and Jumeirah skylines with a slight sci-fi inspired intervention.
Photographed with Canon 5dmk3 and Canon TS-E 24mm lens. Processed with Photoshop CC 2015 and NIK Collection.
Amtrak’s Cardinal #51 glides into downtown Lafayette with one of the craziest lashups this train has ever seen. Leading are two P32-8BWH “Dash 8s” #519 and #512 on the head end, and a F40PH Carbody NPCU #90222 third out. This consist feels like total jump back in time to the 90s where Dash 8/F40 lashups were a common sight as new GE technology was being tested throughout the Amtrak system. This is probably my top catch in my 3.5 year stint in Indiana so far, and without a doubt something that will probably never occur again on Amtrak (9/12/24).
