◊ 3,000 Years after the Great Gem War, ignited by a rebellion led by a Rose Quartz, human beings claimed the earth and have roamed it for millennia. When a research team in-charge of excavating specific crystals for resources made their way through an unexplored mining cave, a terrifying discovery was made... ◊
A black and white version of an image posted in early summer.
This tiny new cluster of blooms just starting to emerge from their buds was captured in late April in Fair Hill Maryland, with iPhone and Olloclip Macro Lens.
Basic image corrections and square crop on the iPad in Snapseed, then into VSCO for further editing starting off with the x4 preset.

"Parasol Mushroom Cluster" by Patti Deters. This cluster of six Green-spored Parasol (chlorophyllum molybdites) mushroom reminds me of a family gathered around their youngest. The umbrella-shaped top, whiteness of the stems, and soft light tan scales help with identification. These fungi are common in lawns and are poisonous if eaten. Other names for this species are green-spored Lepiota, false parasol, and vomiter (because of the poison effect). The spores have a green-ish tint which is where it gets it name.

The Lagoon Nebula is 8 in Charles Messier's "not a comet" list, 25 in the Sharpless catalog and 6523 in the New General Calalog.(NGC) It is a cloud of ionized hydrogen estimated to be 4000-6000 light years from earth. It can be seen with the naked eye as a gray/green patch in the constellation of Sagittarius..Almost in the center of the photo can be seen NGC 6530, an open cluster of young stars formed from material within the nebula. The entire nebula is roughly 110 x 50 light-years wide.

Whether named clustered rose, swamp rose or peafruit rose, Rosa pisocarpa smells just as sweet. Blooming slightly later than the Nootka rose, the clustered rose colors vary from a pale lilac rose to a deeper, almost magenta rose hue, splotched with white along the edges of the petals. It’s quite a beautiful sight walking along hedges full of the small fragrant blossoms. Ravenna Park, Seattle, Washington

This line up shows 60009 and 60038 alongside 92021 and 92046 all are at Loughborough works being stripped for spares but beyond viable restoration.the open lens cluster is from 60090.
A sorry sight.
'Pandora's Cluster' (NIRCam Image) by JWST
NASA’s Webb Uncovers New Details in Pandora’s Cluster
Astronomers have revealed the latest deep field image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, featuring never-before-seen details in a region of space known as Pandora’s Cluster (Abell 2744). Webb’s view displays three clusters of galaxies – already massive – coming together to form a megacluster. The combined mass of the galaxy clusters creates a powerful gravitational lens, a natural magnification effect of gravity, allowing much more distant galaxies in the early universe to be observed by using the cluster like a magnifying glass.
Caption
Astronomers estimate 50,000 sources of near-infrared light are represented in this image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. Their light has travelled through varying distances to reach the telescope’s detectors, representing the vastness of space in a single image. A foreground star in our own galaxy, to the right of the image center, displays Webb’s distinctive diffraction spikes. Bright white sources surrounded by a hazy glow are the galaxies of Pandora’s Cluster, a conglomeration of already-massive clusters of galaxies coming together to form a megacluster. The concentration of mass is so great that the fabric of spacetime is warped by gravity, creating an effect that makes the region of special interest to astronomers: a natural, super-magnifying glass called a “gravitational lens” that they can use to see very distant sources of light beyond the cluster that would otherwise be undetectable, even to Webb.
These lensed sources appear red in the image, and often as elongated arcs distorted by the gravitational lens. Many of these are galaxies from the early universe, with their contents magnified and stretched out for astronomers to study. Other red sources in the image have yet to be confirmed by follow-up observations with Webb’s Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) instrument to determine their true nature. One intriguing example is an extremely compact source that appears as a tiny red dot, despite the magnifying effect of the gravitational lens. One possibility is that the dot is a supermassive black hole in the early universe. NIRSpec data will provide both distance measurements and compositional details of selected sources, providing a wealth of previously-inaccessible information about the universe and how it has evolved over time.

I love looking closer how different flowers grow.
These tiny flowers are maybe 3 mm and altogether they for these clusters gathered on the branches and when the shrub is in full bloom it looks like it is snow-covered.
A joy in the morning, seen from my kitchen window.
Thank you for your visits and comments, M, (*_*)

NGC869 and NGC884, the Double Cluster in Perseus.
About 7500 light-years distant, about 12.8 million years old, including the surrounding star haloes, the combined two clusters are estimated to have a mass of 20,000 solar masses.
