this is not the typical to be taken tourist shot at Þingvellir, Ísland, as I have deleted the original photo after watching some of yours...
this is a photo trying to express what I felt when I had fainted on the street this week earlier.
At Þingvellir, Alþing - general assembly was established around 930 and continued to convene there until 1798. All major events in the history of Iceland have taken place at Þingvellir. Today Þingvellir is a national park where the protected area shall always be the property of the Icelandic nation, under the preservation of the Alþing.
I came across this article, explaining how to take photos of the Milky Way in low light: getpocket.com/a/read/677616447
I've been experimenting on and off with photographing the stars, but with so much light pollution in London it's hard.
Having stood out in the cold and with a clear sky, my eyes started to adjust and I began to be able to see very faint clusters. Quite a nice experience, makes me wonder what it would be like somewhere with little to no light pollution. One day.
To get what you see here, I adjusted the White balance, Exposure as well as playing with the Enhance, Curves, Highlights & shadows and Levels in Aperture.

NGC 5907, also known at the Knife Edge or Splinter galaxy, is a spiral galaxy located approximately 50 million light years from Earth.
A very faint tidal stream of stars is visible around the galaxy, especially on the top side.
At full resolution, many hundreds of other galaxies are visible.
I'll post close up crops, as some of those are really interesting!

A trip with Cooper to his favorite place in the world....the dog park. On this day following our second snow there were still a few places which weren't run in with tracks.
Taken from Wards Island Ontario. (Lake Ontario) It's a little faint to see but there was spot lights shooting up into the air.

I tried to get a shot of the milky way from Galiano Island but did not realize how bright the lights from Vancouver would be that far away. You can still kind of make out where the milky way is but it is much fainter than if I was further away from the city. I kind of like it with the city lights anyways.

Even though the majority of our first day at Tokyo Disney Sea was filled with buckets and buckets of rain, we did get a few minutes of clarity which gave me this faint rainbow. It only lasted about 1 minute before it faded away, so I'm just glad I happened to be in a location that let me take advantage of it.

If you look through the notch in the near ridge you can faintly make out a few structures. That is the “living ghost town” known as Chloride, Arizona. It’s a charming little town if you like old mining towns (and I do). The rock outcrop in that notch is the location of the Roy Purcell Murals on the huge boulders there. If you zoom in a little you can make out some of his paint. The murals represent a number of creation narratives which, I’m told, Roy intended to be a tribute to the indigenous people and their petroglyphs on the near side of that dirt road.
When three galaxies collide, what happens to the huge black holes at the centers of each? A new study using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and several other telescopes reveals new information about how many black holes are furiously growing after these galactic smash ups.
Astronomers want to learn more about galactic collisions because the subsequent mergers are a key way that galaxies and the giant black holes in their cores grow over cosmic time.
“There have been many studies of what happens to supermassive black holes when two galaxies merge,” said Adi Foord of Stanford University, who led the study. “Ours is one of the first to systematically look at what happens to black holes when three galaxies come together.”
She and her colleagues identified triple galaxy merger systems by cross-matching the archives – containing data that is now publicly available – of NASA’s WISE mission and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to the Chandra archive. Using this method they found seven triple galaxy mergers located between 370 million and one billion light years from Earth.
Using specialized software Foord developed for her Ph.D. at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, the team went through Chandra data targeting these systems to detect X-ray sources marking the location of growing supermassive black holes. As material falls toward a black hole, it gets heated to millions of degrees and produces X-rays.
Chandra, with its sharp X-ray vision, is ideal for detecting growing supermassive black holes in mergers. The associated X-ray sources are challenging to detect because they are usually close together in images and are often faint. Foord’s software was developed specifically to find such sources. Data from other telescopes was then used to rule out other possible origins of the X-ray emission unrelated to supermassive black holes.
The results from Foord and the team show that out of seven triple galaxy mergers there is one with a single growing supermassive black hole, four with double growing supermassive black holes, and one that is a triple. The final triple merger they studied seems to have struck out with no X-ray emission detected from the supermassive black holes. In the systems with multiple black holes, the separations between them range between about 10,000 and 30,000 light years.

Holga 120N, Arista Ultra.Edu, shot with the Holga clear, soft surround filter. Developed in D-76, 1+1, 13 minutes.
Print enlarged at f/11 for 5 seconds, developed in Dektol 1 + 2, 1 minute. Printed on Adorama RC variable contrast paper, glossy (I don't usually like glossy paper, but I wanted to use my less expensive paper for experimenting).
My interest was piqued by a comment from one of my wonderful contacts regarding my post yesterday. I decided to see if I could print a portion of the negative, which obviously I was able to do using my 6x7 negative carrier. I dodged the background because otherwise it came out as pretty much solid black. The small strip at the end of the right side of the photograph needed to be burned, as it was blown out. I think I could have burned a bit more, but it was like the 10th print of this, and I had been making other prints before it, so I was a bit weary. I've vowed to try it again; I want it darker.
The print, to me, looks different from the scanned negative (outside of the obvious fact that I couldn't print the entire length of the negative). I got some very valuable information from this experience, and I'm thinking a a lot about how I photograph. I want to do more printing and less scanning, and I want to continue to use the various techniques. So I'm thinking about how to accommodate both. Some of my microclick negatives are very long, and I don't want to contact print...that's just too small for my taste. Anyway, I'm very appreciative of the original input that lit the spark under all of this for me. I'll see where it goes...
Behind the Image
On the first day of March 2013, after a busy day, I was just about to sit down to dinner when I noticed via the web that a Solar wind had arrived at Earth making for favourable Aurora conditions. I wolfed down my dinner down and took a quick look at the weather radar on the web. It didn’t look good! However, I decided to take and chance and head to the coast. I knew a place on the west coast that I thought had great potential for Earth and sky shots so at 19:00 I pointed the Car west and drove!
Upon arrival at 20:30 I was star struck when I stepped out of the car! The bright and brilliant stars of the Milky Way blazed overhead, a faint Aurora display was in progress to the north and the elusive Zodiacal Light shone intensely extending skyward form the western horizon. I look a few minutes to take in all and then I sprang into action with my camera and tripod. Although the air was moist the skies stayed clear for the next two and half hours. I enjoyed a peaceful yet invigorating night soaking in the celestial light and listening to the sounds of the ocean under an inky black sky.
