It turns out that 2016 had one last treasure to offer up, my son James and I spotted a whale just off the coast yesterday. It was a little far away, but a fluke's a fluke! I think it was a humpback, but I'm no expert.
This is a closer image I got earlier in 2016 - Link.

Two derelict tug boats off Five Pines Point in China Camp, one is called Pocahontas, but I can't discern the name of her sister. I looked up the details, and she went into service in 1942 with the US Navy, it was sold to a private company in 1976 and is currently logged as derelict.
My enterprising buddies, the acorn woodpeckers are also using palm trees for their granary this year. So they've got acorns stashed deep in the trunk of this palm tree, which is easily 100 foot up off the ground.

The narrow galaxy elegantly curving around its spherical companion in this image is a fantastic example of a truly strange and very rare phenomenon. This image, taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, depicts GAL-CLUS-022058s, located in the southern hemisphere constellation of Fornax (The Furnace). GAL-CLUS-022058s is the largest and one of the most complete Einstein rings ever discovered in our Universe. The object has been nicknamed by the Principal Investigator and his team who are studying this Einstein ring as the "Molten Ring", which alludes to its appearance and host constellation.
First theorised to exist by Einstein in his general theory of relativity, this object’s unusual shape can be explained by a process called gravitational lensing, which causes light shining from far away to be bent and pulled by the gravity of an object between its source and the observer. In this case, the light from the background galaxy has been distorted into the curve we see by the gravity of the galaxy cluster sitting in front of it. The near exact alignment of the background galaxy with the central elliptical galaxy of the cluster, seen in the middle of this image, has warped and magnified the image of the background galaxy around itself into an almost perfect ring. The gravity from other galaxies in the cluster is soon to cause additional distortions.
Objects like these are the ideal laboratory in which to research galaxies too faint and distant to otherwise see.

Accidentally caught this guy with completely wrong dof setting, but interesting effect.

They often say that Swiss trains run like clockwork, which in the case of the train to Zermatt is also literally true, as it runs on a cogwheel system!
The train engages the cog system on steep parts to avoid slipping back down the hill, or going down too quickly in the other direction.
This vibrant spiral galaxy and the subject of today’s NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Picture of the Week is NGC 5042, which resides about 48 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Hydra (the water snake). The galaxy nicely fills the frame of this Hubble image, with a single Milky Way star marked by cross-shaped diffraction spikes attempting to blend in with the bright stars along the galaxy’s edge.
Hubble observed NGC 5042 in six wavelength bands from the ultraviolet to the infrared to create this multicoloured portrait. The galaxy’s cream-coloured centre is packed with ancient stars, and the galaxy’s spiral arms are decorated with patches of young blue stars. The elongated yellow-orange objects that are scattered around the image are background galaxies far more distant than NGC 5042.
Perhaps NGC 5042’s most striking feature is its collection of brilliant pink gas clouds that are studded throughout its spiral arms. These flashy clouds are called H II (pronounced “H-two”) regions, and they get their distinctive colour from hydrogen atoms that have been ionised by ultraviolet light. If you look closely at this image, you’ll see that many of these reddish clouds are associated with clumps of blue stars, often appearing to form a shell around the stars.
H II regions arise in expansive clouds of hydrogen gas, and only hot and massive stars produce enough high-energy light to create an H II region. Because the stars capable of creating H II regions only live for a few million years — just a blink of an eye in galactic terms — this image represents a fleeting snapshot of life in this galaxy.
[Image Description: A spiral galaxy. It’s noticeably bright around the central region of its disc, then dims somewhat out to the edge where there are fewer stars. Two spiral arms circle through the disc and emerge beyond its edge, around the galaxy’s sides. Many pink spots of new star formation, as well as dark reddish strands of dust, cover the galaxy. The arms contain some speckled, blue patches containing hot stars.]

A little rain cleans the streets, and heaven knows, they need cleaning. You can probably tell which corner of SF I work by the repeat pictures I take.

I am definitely a sourdough bore these days!
This one today was particularly good though.
So posting one more sour dough picture ...last for a while I promise
This one was:
50% white 50 % coarse wholemeal
lots of nuts: pecan and walnut - pulverised
and sunflower hearts and black sesame seeds
...& a good glug of olive oil too
