The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has snapped the best ever image of the Antennae Galaxies. Hubble has released images of these stunning galaxies twice before, once using observations from its Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) in 1997, and again in 2006 from the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS). Each of Hubble’s images of the Antennae Galaxies has been better than the last, due to upgrades made during the famous servicing missions, the last of which took place in 2009. The galaxies — also known as NGC 4038 and NGC 4039 — are locked in a deadly embrace. Once normal, sedate spiral galaxies like the Milky Way, the pair have spent the past few hundred million years sparring with one another. This clash is so violent that stars have been ripped from their host galaxies to form a streaming arc between the two. In wide-field images of the pair the reason for their name becomes clear — far-flung stars and streamers of gas stretch out into space, creating long tidal tails reminiscent of antennae. This new image of the Antennae Galaxies shows obvious signs of chaos. Clouds of gas are seen in bright pink and red, surrounding the bright flashes of blue star-forming regions — some of which are partially obscured by dark patches of dust. The rate of star formation is so high that the Antennae Galaxies are said to be in a state of starburst, a period in which all of the gas within the galaxies is being used to form stars. This cannot last forever and neither can the separate galaxies; eventually the nuclei will coalesce, and the galaxies will begin their retirement together as one large elliptical galaxy. This image uses visible and near-infrared observations from Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3), along with some of the previously-released observations from Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS).
Ignore the pipes and white box. The photo is taken from the catwalk up on the grid. This is the backdrop for BARBECUE KING.
All of crew worked on it, mostly second years though.

Thanks to my wife finding this tutorial I was able to figure out the flash syncs. Now to find the right Height and power with the right ISO Shutter speed and F stop. I am almost there and may even watch the other videos she found on YouTube! It may be this room may need the soft box cloths put in. But if I get it then I have learned something! The set did not come with the direct cable mount syncs but works well with the remote. The extra three wires really threw me off! Remember before the critique I am posting the bad with the good. There is even an available light shot in here. So far my favorite is ISO 200 at 125 shutter speed at F 8 with strobes on low power. So now I figure how to make the triangle in the check and get the hair lit in the back, hand to get the bright spot at 11 and 2. The 11 and 2 thing may not be necessary.
Any of our club that wants to come by for some portrait practice or have a client or a dog friend let me know!
