Sunset, Lake Michigan... All my work is Creative Commons, so it can be used freely with attribution. I'm willing to trade the risk of little stealing (it happens) with the benefit of others getting value from it and mentioning my name (it happens a lot more).
Camped out for an hour or so, looking for the albino jackrabbit once more. It turned up. It has two buddies which would have been much easier to photograph, I wonder does it sense that it contrasts more with its surroundings, it's so much more nervous, last to step forward, first to bolt.
Anyway, likely to be my last effort this summer. I don't have time to come back for quite a while. Something a bit magical about seeing it, I can see why so many myths and superstitions surround white offspring of any species, sadly so much being negative and hostile, because of the alleged "demon" eyes. The good news is that it seems to be accepted by the other rabbits in the group.
This group of musicians played traditional music, drank beer and generally enjoyed themselves as they entertained pilgrims and tourists near Senso-Ji temple.
The subject of this week's Hubble Picture of the Week is a reflection nebula, identified as GN 04.32.8. Reflection nebulae are clouds of dust in space that don't emit their own light, as other nebulae do. Instead, the light from nearby stars hits and scatters off their dust, lighting them up. Because of the way the light scatters, many reflection nebulae tend to appear blue, GN 04.32.8 included.
GN 04.32.8 is a small part of the stellar nursery known as the Taurus Molecular Cloud. At only roughly 480 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus, it's one of the best locations for studying newly forming stars. This reflection nebula is illuminated by the system of three bright stars in the centre of this image, mainly the variable star V1025 Tauri in the very centre. One of those stars overlaps with part of the nebula: this is another variable star that is named HP Tauri, but is classified as a T Tauri star, for its similarity to yet another variable star elsewhere in the Taurus Molecular Complex. T Tauri stars are very active, chaotic stars at an early stage of their evolution, so it's no surprise that they appear in a prolific stellar nursery like this one! The three stars are also named HP Tau, HP Tau G2 and HP Tau G3; they’re believed to be gravitationally bound to each other, forming a triple system.
Eagle-eyed viewers might notice the small, squashed, orange spot, just left of centre below the clouds of the nebula, that’s crossed by a dark line. This is a newly-formed protostar, hidden in a protoplanetary disc that obstructs some of its light. Because the disc is edge-on to us, it’s an ideal candidate for study. Astronomers are using Hubble here to examine it closely, seeking to learn about the kinds of exoplanets that might be formed in discs like it.
[Image Description: A long, smoky, greyish-blue cloud in the centre of the image curves in an arc around three bright stars, each with long cross-shaped diffraction spikes. The cloud is lit more brightly on the inner side facing the stars, and fades into the dark background on the outer side. A few other stars and points of light surround the cloud: one small star below it has a dark band crossing its centre.]

Spotted this guy looking through the window last night, casing the joint I guess. Please don't comment on the smudgy window.
Today is day 133 of Project 365 (Thursday).
James looks out from behind Seljalandsfoss, a huge waterfall that has a trail going behind it. Again on the south coast, one of our cloudier days. He has a ghost image reflected on the water.
Visited the De Young yesterday. Always love watching people react to art.

Shy exploring one of the Crooked River tributaries yesterday. This is weather, he was made for. Still offline, be back later this week.
NO AWARDS... MERCI :)

This is how trees should be topped! This osprey was getting buffeted around a bit in the wind, the grainy background was a mizzle falling. So cool to get a bit of time to do some wildlife photography again.
Today is day 198 of Project 365 (Friday).
Everything has gotten a bit grimy and bare at the moment. But somehow it asks for a photo of its ordinariness under a pleasing sky.
