An island came across near Seattle, Washington. FYI, Seagate has yet to recover my 300+ photos from Seattle that were on my external hard drive that only worked for 2 weeks after I opened it. Hoping to get the full resolution photos back in a couple of weeks and this should look much better.

Searching the Heavens -
Radio antennas of the Very Large Array (VLA) observe the heavens on a stormy spring day on the plains of San Agustin, New Mexico.
In shaping the Universe, gravity builds a vast cobweb-like structure of filaments tying galaxies and clusters of galaxies together along invisible bridges hundreds of millions of light-years long. This is known as the cosmic web.

This spectacular image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope captures the spiral galaxy NGC 105, which lies roughly 215 million light-years away in the constellation Pisces. While it looks like NGC 105 is plunging edge-on into a neighboring galaxy, this is just a circumstance of perspective. NGC 105’s elongated neighbor is actually far more distant. Such visual associations are the result of our Earthly perspective and they occur frequently in astronomy. A good example of this are the constellations. The stars that form constellations are at vastly different distances from Earth. To us they appear to form these patterns because they are aligned along the same sightline, while an observer in another part of the galaxy would see different patterns.
Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 observations in this image are from a vast collection of Hubble measurements examining nearby galaxies that contain two fascinating astronomical phenomena – Cepheid variable stars and cataclysmic supernova explosions. While these two phenomena may appear unrelated – one is a peculiar class of pulsating stars and the other is the explosion caused by the catastrophic death of a massive star – astronomers use both to measure the vast distances to astronomical objects. Both Cepheids and supernovae have very predictable luminosities. Astronomers use these so-called “standard candles” to determine distances by comparing how bright these objects appear from Earth to their actual brightness. NGC 105 contains both supernovae and Cepheid variables, giving astronomers the opportunity to calibrate the two distance measurement techniques against one another.
Astronomers recently analyzed the distances to a sample of galaxies including NGC 105 and their velocities to measure how fast the universe is expanding – a value known as the Hubble constant. Their results don’t agree with predictions made by the most widely accepted cosmological model, and their analysis shows that there is only a 1-in-a-million chance that this discrepancy is the result of measurement errors. The difference between galaxy measurements and cosmological predictions is a long-standing source of consternation for astronomers, and these recent findings provide credible new evidence that something is either wrong or lacking in our standard model of cosmology.

{D.A} Sinistre Eyes - Horror Edition
Corvus : Small Cross Tattoo
Four cyanotypes gussied up for the "display:inline; width:25%; sidereal-relation:10px auto" crowd.
Coating was accomplished by brush onto gelatin-fattened vellum through a tiny lampshade I occasionally use to roughly coat in a circular fashion.
I put the fat, wide-mouthed end of the shade to the paper and wait for knocks on the door. No such of course because our world is terrible and merciless.
Thus, I ream the fucker out with my emulsion laden brush and expose it to crazy radiated sun-fastness.
I assume most cyano-fellers simply coat a whole sheet and then print with an opaque mask -- this strikes me as entirely practical and full of what Baudelaire referred to as "the tendency of Fools to gainsay their imagined accomplishments."
Which is to say, the circle isn't really the point is it ?
But hold on ... everything is cool.
The process goes like you imagine: sun pushing, contact printing, digital negatives assembled, hours of deadly push-ups and related physical conditioning, ammonia, tannin, some vinegar for my coffee.

I'm still working on grappling. And with 'dimpling' a cosmogeny, a process absolutely inspired by R. Fludd's "Utriusque cosmi" -- probably the single most influential piece of art I've ever eaten.
As I was stepping out of BuckleDown Brewery, I put my equipment into my trunk and this figure on the garage door caught my eye. I had to capture him before we bid farewell.
Pasqual Sébah was one of the most important professional photographers of his time in the Ottoman Empire. Today, his works are highly sought after by museums and collectors.
Of Syrian or Lebanese origins, Sébah (1823-1886) was a leading photographer in Constantinople, now the city of Istanbul. In 1857 he opened a studio, which he called "El Chark," next to the Russian Embassy on the Grande Rue de Pera, the main shopping street of the European part of the city. He sold photographs of the city, ancient ruins in the surrounding area, portraits, and images of local people in traditional costumes to tourists. His prints are signed P. Sébah.
Sébah rose to international prominence because of his well-organized compositions, careful lighting, effective posing, attractive models, and great attention to detail. His career coincided with intense Western European interest in the "Orient," which was viewed as exotic and fascinating.
In 1860, he secured the collaboration of the French photographer A. Laroche to direct his studio. As Sébah's technician, Laroche turned out photographic prints of superior quality.
Sébah's career was accelerated through his collaboration with the artist, Osman Hamdi Bey (1842-1910). Osman Hamdi Bey posed models, often dressed in elaborate costumes, for Sebah to photograph. The painter then used Sébah's photographs for his celebrated Orientalist oil paintings.
In 1873, Osman Hamdi Bey was appointed by the Ottoman court to direct the Ottoman exhibition in Vienna and commissioned Sébah to produce large photographs of models wearing costumes for a sumptuous album, "Les Costumes Populaires de la Turquie." The album earned Sébah a gold medal awarded by the Viennese organizers, and another medal from the Ottoman Sultan Abdulaziz.
In that same exceptional year of 1873, Sébah opened a branch in Cairo, Egypt, on the Esbekieh next to the French Embassy, where he installed his associate, Laroche. (The Cairo studio remained in business until 1898.)
In 1883, Sébah suffered a stroke. He died on June 15, 1886, and his brother Cosmi managed the business until Johannes (1872-1947), Pascal’s son, was old enough to take over.
Johannes (Jean) grew up to become a talented photographer in his own right, but to profit from his father’s fame, he signed his photographs J. Pascal Sébah. In 1888 he went into partnership with a French photographer resident in Istanbul, Polycarpe Joaillier. The firm of Sébah and Joaillier were named the official photographers of the Sultan, and at his command took photographs all over his empire.
Joaillier returned to Paris in the early 1900s, but Jean Sébah continued the studio, forming a partnership in 1910 with Hagop Iskender and Leo Perpignani. The latter left the firm in 1914. Jean Sébah and Hagop Iskender retired in 1934, leaving the business to Iskender's son, Bedros Iskender and his partner, Ismail Insel. Ismail Insel eventually became sole partner and renamed the studio Foto Sabah, which remained in business until 1952. (Sabah means "morning" in Turkish.)
With all the changes, the studio that Pascal Sébah began in 1857 lasted 95 years.

Clustered at the center of this image are six brilliant spots of light, four of them creating a circle around a central pair. Appearances can be deceiving, however, as this formation is not composed of six individual galaxies, but is actually two separate galaxies and one distant quasar imaged four times. Data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope also indicates that there is a seventh spot of light in the very center, which is a rare fifth image of the distant quasar. This rare phenomenon is the result of the two central galaxies, which are in the foreground, acting as a lens.
The four bright points around the galaxy pair, and the fainter one in the very center, are in fact five separate images of a single quasar (known as 2M1310-1714), an extremely luminous but distant object. The reason we see this quintuple effect is a phenomenon called gravitational lensing. Gravitational lensing occurs when a celestial object with an enormous amount of mass – such as a pair of galaxies – causes the fabric of space to warp. When light from a distant object travels through that gravitationally warped space, it is magnified and bent around the huge mass. This allows humans here on Earth to observe multiple, magnified images of the far-away source. The quasar in this image actually lies farther away from Earth than the pair of galaxies. The galaxy pair’s enormous mass bent and magnified the light from the distant quasar, giving the incredible appearance that the galaxies are surrounded by four quasars – when in reality, a single quasar lies far beyond them!
Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) imaged the trio in spectacular detail. It was installed on Hubble in 2009 during Hubble Servicing Mission 4, Hubble’s final servicing mission. WFC3 continues to provide both top-quality data and fantastic images 12 years after its installation.

Astronomers have designed a computer algorithm, inspired by slime mould behavior, and tested it against a computer simulation of the growth of dark matter filaments in the Universe. The researchers then applied the slime mould algorithm to data containing the locations of over 37 000 galaxies mapped by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The algorithm produced a three-dimensional map of the underlying cosmic web structure.
They then analysed the light from 350 faraway quasars catalogued in the Hubble Spectroscopic Legacy Archive. These distant cosmic flashlights are the brilliant black-hole-powered cores of active galaxies, whose light shines across space and through the foreground cosmic web.
