Another RAW rework from 2 year old file. Fermilab was home to the Tevatron proton collider, shut down September, 2011. On July 2, 2012, they announced significant evidence as to the presence of the Higgs Boson, a particle with 125 the mass of a proton, necessary for the Higgs field which allows subatomic particles to have mass and all that is dependent upon that. Two days later, the scientists at CERN's Large Hadron Collider published their confirming results. We live but a few miles from Fermilab, and I've done many shoots there with Wilson Hall offering unique architecture and a plethora of photo ops.
This particular RAW file interpretation made yesterday was occasioned by references tdwrsa made to M.C. Escher's work in connection with my previous post. (zoom in -- if you can ;-)
L'Apollon grande espèce emblématique des montagnes d'Eurasie, elle est en régression dans de nombreux massifs, et protégée par la Loi dans plusieurs pays.
L'imago de l'Apollon est un grand papillon d'une envergure de 6 à 9 cm. Le corps est velu chez le mâle, comme tous les papillons du genre Parnassius. Les ailes présentent des dessins et ocelles noirs et rouges sur un fond blanc à crème présentant une suffusion grise variable (souvent plus marquée chez la femelle) et l'extrémité de l'aile antérieure, dépourvue d’écailles, paraît translucide. Les ailes antérieures présentent plusieurs taches noires, les ailes postérieures présentent deux ocelles rouges ou orange cernés de noir et pupillés de blanc. Sur le verso, toujours uniquement sur les ailes postérieures, les ocelles peuvent être jusqu'à neuf, aussi colorés de rouge que sur le recto.

Il paesaggio dell’Asinara è dominato da piante arbustive come lentisco, olivastro ed euphorbia, mentre nell’estremo nord dell’isola si trova un bosco di leccio. La flora annovera anche una trentina di specie endemiche dell’isola o della regione sardo-corsa, tra le quali Centaurea horrida, Limonium acutifolium, Limonium laetum.
L’ambiente marino è caratterizzato da fondali in ottimo stato di salute. Il versante occidentale, il cosiddetto “mare di fuori”, presenta una costa rocciosa con molte frane; quello orientale mostra un litorale basso con fondali sabbiosi dove si sviluppa un’ampia prateria di Posidonia. Vi si possono vedere esemplari di Pinna nobilis e i rari cavallucci marini. Sui substrati rocciosi si sviluppa, fra l’altro, la patella gigante, che qui raggiunge i 10 cm di diametro.
Ad oltre 70 m di profondità c’è un’alga bruna (Laminaria rodriguezii), che rappresenta un raro paleoendemismo del Mediterraneo. Tra i diversi siti d’immersione, in cui si possono ammirare le cernie anche a profondità non elevate, si segnalano Cala Tumbarino e Punta Salippi nel lato occidentale e Punta Trabuccato nel versante orientale.

Just imagine 4 billion years from now and your technology would be undamaged. This is what it could look like at CERN headquarters.... :)
CERNs LHC accelerator will have the coldest temperatures in the universe when its superconductor magnets start up next year.
The European Organization for Nuclear Research (French: Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire), known as CERN, is the world's largest particle physics laboratory, situated in the northwest suburbs of Geneva on the franco-Swiss border.
The organisation is currently the workplace of approximately 2600 full-time employees. Some 7931 scientists and engineers (representing 500 universities and 80 nationalities), about half of the world's particle physics community, work on experiments conducted at CERN.
