A very bad old photo but I just wanted to remember and to share it with you.

Out of sight. Rarely passed. Worried and worn and flailed by the wind and rain of middle Ireland. Fading.

from a photo logistics perspective she always sets herself in the sunlight ...............if there is any sunlight!

When the cold weather arrives, Chico comes inside to sleep, but sometimes accidents happen.

Dahlia ‘Margaret Haggo’ (Dahlia). This genus has upright and bushy, early summer and early autumn flowering, tuberous, deciduous annuals and perennials. They bear pinnatifid or pinnatisect, mid green leaves and disc-shaped flowers.

 

A California Scrub-Jay pauses amid a patch of clover flowers. Known for their striking blue feathers and sharp intelligence, these bold birds are common sights in California’s open spaces and backyards.

candiceshenefelt (thanks Candice) tells me that this is a spotted cucumber beetle. I had no idea!. It's really taking the yellow theme to the limit!

 

Sun's back out!

 

Today is day 159 of Project 365 (Tuesday).

   

It appears that something has survived the winter in my garden!

A swallow takes a brief rest along the Sonoma Port Marina. Our temperatures surged today, well to into the 90's F. I guess it is summer already.

The Muskegon South Pierhead Light is a steel tapered cylindrical tower located at the west end of the south pier at the entry channel that connects Muskegon Lake with Lake Michigan. The light tower was constructed in 1903 and remains an active navigational light. .

free to use, credit and link to your work would be just wonderful if you want to share:-)) I am not demanding, really, just want to admire your work:-)

The moon shot from my balchony in the city (Copenhagen), on a "warm" night (after a hot day). So probably not ideal atmospheric conditions for "astro photography". But still pretty cool?

 

I was using tripod, and I could probably easily have chosen a slower shutter speed and a lower the ISO speed. Must remember that next time...

Pallas-Athene-Brunnen/Athena Fountain - Austrian Parliament, Vienna, Austria 2014..... At the entrance of Austrian Parliament building, is the 5,5 m high statue of Pallas Athene which stands in the middle of a large fountain. The sculptor Carl Kundmann created the statue according to the plans from architect Hansen.

The goddess of wisdom Pallas Athene holds in her right hand a small figure of Nike the goddess of victory and in her left hand a spear. www.city-walks.info/Vienna/Parliament.html

I love this shot :-)

Roaring Stag in Dyrehaven

This is a shot from my descent down from the Matterhorn. From this high up, it truly is a birds eye view of the valley below. Again, it's another shot from a week or two ago. I'm back in California now.

Squirrel at Santa Clara Uni

it has taken me a while & multiple attempts to upload this - Away for a while and on dodgy wifi, I brought this picture with me - I never like to miss posting for webwednesday!

A stream on the side of Mount Hood. From our trip in Oregon.

Two merging galaxies in the VV689 system — nicknamed the Angel Wing —feature in this image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Unlike chance alignments of galaxies which only appear to overlap as seen from our vantage point on Earth, the two galaxies in VV689 are in the midst of a collision. The galactic interaction has left the VV689 system almost completely symmetrical, giving the impression of a vast set of galactic wings.

 

This angelic image comes from a set of Hubble observations inspecting the highlights of the Galaxy Zoo citizen science project. This crowdsourced astronomy project relied on hundreds of thousands of volunteers to classify galaxies and help astronomers wade through a deluge of data from robotic telescopes. In the process, volunteers discovered a rogues’ gallery of weird and wonderful galaxy types, some of which had not previously been studied. A similar, ongoing project called Radio Galaxy Zoo is using the same crowdsourcing approach to locate supermassive black holes in distant galaxies.

 

Noteworthy objects from both projects were chosen for detailed follow-up observations with Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys. In keeping with the crowdsourced nature of the Galaxy Zoo project, the targets for follow-up observations with Hubble were chosen via roughly 18 000 votes cast by the public. The selected targets include ring-shaped galaxies, unusual spirals, and a striking selection of galaxy mergers such as VV689.

In this image, the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope captures a side-on view of NGC 3568, a barred spiral galaxy roughly 57 million light-years from the Milky Way in the constellation Centaurus. In 2014 the light from a supernova explosion in NGC 3568 reached Earth — a sudden flare of light caused by the titanic explosion accompanying the death of a massive star. Whilst most astronomical discoveries are the work of teams of professional astronomers, this supernova was discovered by amateur astronomers from the Backyard Observatory Supernova Search in New Zealand. Dedicated amateur astronomers often make intriguing discoveries — particularly of fleeting astronomical phenomena such as supernovae.

 

This Hubble observation comes from a hoard of data built up to pave the way for future science with the upcoming NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope. By combining ground-based observations with data from Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys and Wide Field Camera 3, astronomers have built a treasure trove of data on the connections between young stars and the clouds of cold gas in which they form. One of Webb’s key science goals is to explore the life cycle of stars — particularly how and where stars are born. Since Webb observes at infrared wavelengths, it will be able to peer through the clouds of gas and dust in stellar nurseries and observe the fledgling stars within. Webb’s superb sensitivity will even allow astronomers to directly investigate faint protostellar cores — the earliest stages of star birth.
