52 weeks in 2016 ... down low ...
... this was quite the challenge ... Drift would nót lie still as I was flat on my belly (not something we're used to haha) and I wanted the shot at f 1.4 for the bokeh and that's kinda difficult if your dog is constantly moving or coming towards you ... but we did it !

Siberian Chiffchaff - Phylloscopus Collybita Tristis
One of about 10 overwintering Chiffies!
Siberian Chiffchaff - Phylloscopus (collybita) tristis
Siberian chiffchaff (Phylloscopus (collybita) tristis) is a leaf-warbler which is usually considered a subspecies of the common chiffchaff, but may be a species in its own right.
Siberian chiffchaff breeds in Siberia east of the Pechora River and winters in the lower Himalayas.
It is also regularly recorded in western Europe in winter, and it is likely that the numbers involved have been underestimated due to uncertainties over identification criteria, lack of good data and recording policies (Sweden and Finland only accept trapped birds).
Because of their unfamiliar appearance, British records in the 1950s and 1960s were originally thought to be greenish warblers, and accepted as such by BBRC, the national rarities committee, until the records were reviewed in the 1980s.
Weather conditions improved in the late afternoon. This is a northwestward view from a hill that used to be the site for Chichijima's weather station.
The island in the left is Nishijima (西島, western island), while those in the right are Hyoutanjima (瓢箪島 gourd island), Anijima (兄島 older brother island), and Hitomarujima (人丸島).
According the climate data provided by Japan Meteorological Agency, average temperature of the coldest month in Chichijima is 18.5 degree Celsius, which means Chichijima has a tropical climate.
Annual precipitation of Chichijima is 1,296 mm, and the precipitation of the driest month is 51.6 mm, which means Chichijima has the tropical monsoon climate (Am) as compared to the humid subtropical climate (Cfa) in the Izu islands and the main island part of Tokyo.
Chichijima's climate is relatively dry judging from the Japanese standard; annual precipitation of downtown Tokyo is 1,530 mm.
Plastic - An interesting theme for this week's Macro Monday. I like plastic and as suggested, it wasn't too tough finding a worthy subject in the house. I had a few CD's lying around and thought it would be interesting if I could extract the data via some unconventional means. I chose a torch and applied a little heat to the underside of the CD. Before my eyes, the data started to emerge in the form of little bubbles and I knew I was on to something. For the shot, I added a little sunlight (fleeting sunlight I might add) and my trusty 55mm f/2.8 NIKKOR Micro with a PK-13, 27.5mm extension tube and it was done. Included in the experimentation was my 50mm Pentacon and various extension tube lengths. I liked this one the best but the bokeh of the Pentacon is very unique.
The bubbles don't really contain data but it seemed to fit so I went with it. You may think you're looking at a curved surface but its flat and looks just like a CD with one side melted a bit. Enjoy large.
Subject size: app. 3/4 in X 3/4 in.
Happy Macro Mondays
The Carolina chickadee is a small passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is often placed in the genus Parus with most other tits, but mtDNA cytochrome b sequence data and morphology suggest that separating Poecile more adequately expresses these birds' relationships.(Wiki)
When I saw this I wasn't sure what it was or what it represented as workers were finishing the installation. Since then I've learned that it represents data visualization it reflects the global impact of food production and consumption on the environment. Part of the "Around The Table" exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden. I still don't understand it but it's nice to look at.
Under the cover of night, Eurasian forces move through an industrial area of Pristina. The target: a LORO data centre believed to contain data drives taken in the arrest of multiple Eurasian ambassadors during a meeting in Copenhagen. While the Nordic oil fields had been of prior interest, the seized data contained developing information on large reserves hidden along the Northern coast of Libya.
My boy turns 10 this August. Great weather for a walk. Based on the look in his eyes, he's ready to go.

The Mata-Nui mainframe has been infected by the Makuta Virus. Engage Data Knight Kopaka to freeze the virus's operations and cool the overheated GPU.
My entry into Ron's What If...? contest. I decided to reimagine Kopaka as a sort of cybertech knight dude in a Tron-esque data scape. Originally this was going to be a very different character design, but I ended up splitting it into this and another MOC I'll be sharing in October since the two concepts didn't really merge well.

Fort Lauderdale station is an inter-city rail station located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It is served by Brightline, which connects Miami, West Palm Beach, and Orlando International Airport. The station is located in downtown Fort Lauderdale, on NW 2nd Avenue between Broward Boulevard and NW 4th Street, adjacent to the Broward County Transit's Central Terminal.
Construction for the station began in October 2014 with the demolition of existing structures on the site. The complex consists of an elevated concourse above an 800-foot-long (240 m), 35-foot-wide (11 m) island platform for the trains. The station is a modern-style structure with illuminated V-shaped columns supporting the upper concourse, echoing the designs of the Miami and West Palm Beach stations on the line. It was planned and designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in association with Zyscovich Architects, and was completed in January 2018.

Tarpon Springs is a city in Pinellas County, Florida, United States. The population was 23,484 at the 2010 census. Tarpon Springs has the highest percentage of Greek Americans of any city in the US. Downtown Tarpon Springs has long been a focal point and is currently undergoing beautification.
The region, with a series of bayous feeding into the Gulf of Mexico, was first settled by white and black farmers and fishermen around 1876. Some of the newly arrived visitors spotted tarpon jumping out of the waters and so named the location Tarpon Springs. The name is said to have originated with a remark of Mrs. Ormond Boyer, an early settler from South Carolina, and who, while standing on the shore of the Bayou and seeing fish leaping exclaimed, "See the tarpon spring!' However, for the most part, the fish seen splashing here were mullets rather than tarpon. In 1882, Hamilton Disston, who in the previous year had purchased the land where the city of Tarpon Springs now stands, ordered the creation of a town plan for the future city.
On February 12, 1887, Tarpon Springs became the first incorporated city in what is now Pinellas County. Less than a year later on January 13, 1888, the Orange Belt Railway, the first railroad line to be built in what is now Pinellas County, arrived in the city. During this time the area was developed as a wintering spot for wealthy northerners.
In the 1880s, John K. Cheyney founded the first local sponge business. The industry continued to grow in the 1890s. Many people from Key West and the Bahamas settled in Tarpon Springs to hook sponges and then process them. A few Greek immigrants also arrived in this city during the 1890s to work in the sponge industry.
In 1905, John Cocoris introduced the technique of sponge diving to Tarpon Springs by recruiting divers and crew members from Greece. The first divers came from the Saronic Gulf islands of Aegina and Hydra, but they were soon outnumbered by those from the Dodecanese islands of Kalymnos, Symi, and Halki. The sponge industry soon became one of the leading maritime industries in Florida and the most important business in Tarpon Springs, generating millions of dollars a year. The 1953 film Beneath the 12-Mile Reef, depicting the sponge industry, takes place and was filmed in Tarpon Springs.
In 1947, red tide algae bloom wiped out the sponge fields in the Gulf of Mexico, causing many of the sponge boats and divers to switch to shrimping for their livelihood, while others left the business. Eventually, the sponges recovered, allowing for a smaller but consistent sponge industry today. In the 1980s, the sponge business experienced a boom due to a sponge disease that killed the Mediterranean sponges. Today there is still a small active sponge industry. Visitors can often view sponge fishermen working at the Sponge Docks on Dodecanese Boulevard. In addition, visitors can enjoy shops, restaurants, and museum exhibits that detail Tarpon Springs' Greek heritage.
In 2007 and 2008, the City of Tarpon Springs established Sister City relationships with Kalymnos, Halki, Symi, and Larnaca, Cyprus, honoring the close historical link with these Greek-speaking islands.
There are several districts or properties in Tarpon Springs that have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places:
Tarpon Springs Greektown Historic District
Tarpon Springs Historic District
Arcade Hotel
Old Tarpon Springs City Hall
Old Tarpon Springs High School
Safford House
Rose Hill Cemetery
Tarpon Springs Depot
Many sites related to the sponge industry within the Greektown District also have been recognized. They include but are not limited to two sponge packing houses:
E.R. Meres Sponge Packing House
N.G. Arfaras Sponge Packing House
And several boats:
N.K. Symi (Sponge Diving Boat)
St. Nicholas III (Sponge Diving Boat)
St. Nicholas VI (Sponge Diving Boat)

two weeks ago I was confronted with my data in a hard way. My large storage device “Drobo” refused to operate after I upgraded it with another 2TB drive. The drive became unresponsive and after a while it did came back giving me the opportunity to retrieve some data…since this was my largest storage device I had to make sacrifices to the data I could retrieve, so I had to delete all my movies, series and software I had collected over the years. Luckily I did manage to backup my photography work.
That same week my laptop died and it has been sent back to Apple for repairs.
Fortunatly I do hold regular backup sessions, but it’s still a hassle and I’m once again aware that all data is fleeting, and no storage medium is safe from harm. Photo’s can burn, disk drives will fail…it’s time holographic data crystals are made…at least they seem stable enough….

A whole new world!
41 light-years away is the small, rocky planet LHS 475 b. At 99% of Earth’s diameter, it’s almost exactly the same size as our home world. This marks the first time researchers have used the Webb telescope to confirm an exoplanet.
NASA’s TESS mission hinted at the planet’s existence, making it a target of interest for Webb. Webb’s NIRSpec instrument then captured the planet easily and clearly with just 2 transit observations.
Although Webb data definitively tells us that LHS 475 b is a small rocky world, the existence and composition of its atmosphere is a mystery. The planet is a few hundred degrees warmer than Earth and very close to its star, completing an orbit in just 2 days. However, its red dwarf star is much cooler than our Sun, so scientists theorize an atmosphere is still possible. Additional follow-up observations are scheduled this summer.

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
L'Autodrom de Terramar, a Sitges, és un espai força unic: un dels cirquits de carreres més antics del món, i un dels pocs de tipus oval d'Europa. De fet, és el 4rt cirquit automobilistic més antic del món (el 3er d'Europa), i el que té corbes amb pendent més pronunciat. Els altres 3 eren Brooklands a Anglaterra, Monza a Italia, i Indianapolis als Estats Units!!!
Data del 1923, i havia de ser el centre d'un gran espai de luxe i descans que inclouria xalets de luxe i un casino. Però només es va construir el circuit... i rapidament va tenir problemes economics. S'hi varen fer curses de cotxes i motos fins el 1932. La guerra civil i la miseria de la postguerra acabaren amb tota activitat automobilistica i els terrenys es destinaren a usos agricoles.
El 2009 la pista i la graderia es varen restaurar i s'hi han fet alguns esdeveniments, rodatges d'anuncis i fins hi tot curses de classics.

========================
The Autodrom de Terramar, in Sitges (Catalonia), is a quite unique space: one of the oldest racing circuits in the world, and one of the few oval-type circuits in Europe. In fact, it is the 4th oldest motor racing circuit in the world (the 3rd in Europe), and the one with the steepest curves. The other 3 were Brooklands in England, Monza in Italy, and Indianapolis in the United States!!!
It dates from 1923, and was to be the center of a large space of luxury and relaxation that would include luxury villas and a casino. But only the circuit was built... and it quickly ran into financial problems. Car and motorbike races were held there until 1932. The civil war and post-war poverty put an end to all automotive activity and the land was used for agricultural purposes.
In 2009, the track and stands were restored and some events, commercial filming, TV programs like The Grand Tour (with Jeremy Clarkson) and even classic races have been held there.

Webb has revealed an exoplanet atmosphere as never seen before!
The telescope has revisited gas giant WASP-39 b to give us the first molecular and chemical profile of an exoplanet’s atmosphere, revealing the presence of water, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, sodium and potassium, as well as signs of clouds. This builds on Webb’s initial look at the planet back in August, which showed the first clear evidence of carbon dioxide in a planet outside our solar system. The latest findings bode well for Webb’s capability to investigate all types of exoplanets, including the atmospheres of smaller, rocky planets like those in the TRAPPIST-1 system.
We learn about exoplanet atmospheres by breaking their light into components and creating spectra. Think of a spectrum as a barcode. Elements and molecules have characteristic signatures in that “barcode” we can read.
This planet is what is known as a “hot Saturn” — a planet about as massive as Saturn but eight times closer in orbit around its star than Mercury is around the Sun. The data shown here is taken from 3 of Webb’s science instruments. Together, they mark a series of firsts in science, including the first detection of sulfur dioxide in an exoplanet atmosphere. This, in turn, is the first concrete evidence of photochemistry — chemical reactions initiated by high-energy light, which are fundamental to life on Earth — on an exoplanet. Understanding the ratio of different elements in relation to each other also offers clues as to how the planet was formed.

Graphic of the atmospheric composition of exoplanet WASP-39 b, showing 2 graphs and a background illustration of the planet and its star.
(Left side)
The top graph shows data from Webb’s NIRISS instrument, the bottom graph data from NIRSpec. Both graphs show the amount of light blocked on the y axis versus wavelength of light on the x axis. The y axes range from 2.00 percent (less light blocked) to 2.35 percent (more light blocked). The x axes range from less than 0.1 microns to 5.5 microns. Data points are plotted as white circles with gray error bars. A curvy blue line represents a best-fit model. The NIRISS data covers a range of about 0.5 to 3.0 microns and highlights the signatures of potassium, water and carbon monoxide in semi-transparent bars of varying colors. Potassium is gray, water is blue, and carbon monoxide is red. The NIRSpec data covers a range of about 2.5 to 5.25 microns. It highlights water and carbon monoxide in addition to sulfur dioxide in green and carbon dioxide in yellow.
