i'm baaaaaack!
just got home a couple days ago from england and france - it was amazing!
we went to strawberry fields on our beatles tour in liverpool as you can see.
i'll be uploading more photo's in a bit :)
sooc.
In Flanders Fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The Larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead, Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

My little Stormie and his friend went to visit the lavender fields located in the beautiful village of Fitch Bay in Quebec on this lovely summer day! :o)
Mon petit Stormie et son ami sont allé visiter les champs de lavande situés dans le beau petit village de Fitch Bay au Québec en cette magnifique journée d'été! :o)
Here's the Bleu Lavande web site. Voici le site de Bleu Lavande.
Baby is technically due tomorrow, so this may be our last jaunt out for a little while!
At the Manassas Battlefield park, about a half-hour outside of town, trying to catch some of the Perseid meteors.
A couple of miles from my village lies the reddist field I have seen. It's surprisingly difficult to capture effectively though and I preferred this telephoto shot at f2.8.

As the glow of morning light spread across the field
she nibbled peacefully
the tan and golden colors of the discarded harvest
... hid her gracefully
the sunshine warmed her sleek long shape
made her shadow grow
unknowingly to her, it was her time to shine
the star of the show
but the mighty hunter in the discarded field today
didn't have a gun or bow
he held his weapon patiently took careful aim as well
seeking his prize at dawn
and added another trophy to his growing framed collection
one caught beyond the horizon.
Poem by Kelly De Witt Schlicht
A time to remember all those who have lost their lives or friends and families in all the many wars and conflicts around the world.
Rape Fields, South Yorkshire.

"We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders Fields."
From 'In Flanders Fields' - a war poem in the form of a rondeau, written during the First World War by Canadian physician and Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae. He was inspired to write it on May 3, 1915, after presiding over the funeral of friend and fellow soldier Alexis Helmer, who died in the Second Battle of Ypres.

As you can see below this wasn't the most interesting shot in the world, and I challenged myself to see what I could do with it. Comments and critiques welcome!
Wires
by Philip Larkin
The widest prairies have electric fences,
For though old cattle know they must not stray
Young steers are always scenting purer water
Not here but anywhere. Beyond the wires
Leads them to blunder up against the wires
Whose muscles-shredding violence gives no quarter.
Young steers become old cattle from that day,
Electric limits to their widest senses.

We drove in a mini-bus from Kathmandu to Dumre, where the Annapurna Circuit Trail begins. The road was reasonably good except for places where the monsoon had washed it into the river or had taken out the bridges, leaving us to cross on temporay spans with one lane. It was great to get out and start walking, but the pace of our group was initially very slow through the warm and humid rice fields at 3000 feet elevation. Many of our porters didn't arrive in camp until after dark.
Until I saw this photo, it had never occurred to me that there could be such a thing as a foot-operated plow.
Despite the farmer's winning smile, I imagine this form of plowing must have been difficult and tiring.
I wonder whether this plow was used to supplement work done by oxen pulling plows, or whether it was limited to farmers who were too poor to afford an ox to plow their fields.
This photo is from an album Elstner Hilton compiled in Japan between 1914 and 1918. Elstner was my spouse's uncle.
While Uncle Elstner sometimes annotated photos that required an explanation, he never dated the pictures. So all we know is they were taken between January, 1914 and December, 1918.
The plow in this photo looks like it hasn't seen much use.

当遇到光度差超过相机所能正确曝光的范围(6-7级曝光值)时,一个选择是拍摄“高动态范围”(HDR)照片,就是拍摄几幅快门不同的照片,使构图中最亮和最暗的部分在不同的照片中正确曝光,然后,用HDR的PS插件处理合成。最常用的是Photomatix Pro或HDR Efex Pro。这幅是由4张合成HDR照片(婺源江岭)

This image: For more than a century, astronomers have categorized galaxies near and far, both by comparing their shapes by eye and precisely measuring their properties with data known as spectra. For example, Edwin Hubble created the Hubble Tuning Fork in 1926 to begin to sort the shapes and sizes of nearby galaxies, showing that many are spirals and ellipticals.
As telescopes’ instruments have become increasingly more sensitive, it is easier to more accurately classify their shapes. New data from the James Webb Space Telescope have added nuances to astronomers’ classifications. Since Webb observes in infrared light, many more extremely distant galaxies appear in its images. Plus, the images are finely detailed, allowing researchers to identify if there are additional areas of star formation – or confirm they aren’t present.
A team led by Viraj Pandya, a NASA Hubble Fellow at Columbia University in New York, recently analyzed hundreds of distant galaxies in Webb’s Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey. CEERS intentionally covers much of the same area as the Hubble Space Telescope’s Extended Groth Strip, which was one of the five fields used to create the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). This allowed them to double-check Webb’s results where the telescopes’ observations overlap.
“Our analysis of Webb’s galaxies was very consistent with galaxies in the Hubble Space Telescope catalog,” Pandya confirmed. “Two sets of data allowed us to fully vet our models as we ran our analysis, and better understand and categorize galaxies that only Webb detected.” The team began their analysis by sorting the galaxies into broad classes based on similar characteristics. (They did not classify each galaxy’s individual appearance since that would require detailed information from data known as spectra.)
They found an array of odd shapes when the universe was 600 million to 6 billion years old. The galaxy shapes that dominate look flat and elongated, like pool noodles or surfboards. These two galaxy types make up approximately 50 to 80% of all the distant galaxies they studied – a surprise, since these shapes are rare closer to home.
Other galaxies Webb detected appear round but also flattened, like frisbees. The least populated category is made up of galaxies that are shaped like spheres or volleyballs.
Webb’s data also resolved a riddle that was introduced by the Hubble Space Telescope’s observations decades ago. Why do so many distant galaxies appear like long lines? Was there more to the galaxies that didn’t appear in its images? Webb answered this in short order: Hubble hasn’t missed anything.
“Webb confirmed what Hubble has long shown us, but in greater detail in infrared light,” Pandya said. “Their combined observations show that in the early universe, many more galaxies appear flat and elongated. This has profound implications, since we usually assume that galaxies like our own Milky Way started out as disks, but that may not be the case.”
Why do galaxies have such different shapes early in the history of the universe? This question remains unanswered for now, but research is underway to better understand how galaxies evolved over all of cosmic time.

Image description: In the far-left column are two galaxies that have been magnified. The top left galaxy appears circular and light pink with a slightly whiter central region, taking up less than one-sixth of the box. The bottom galaxy is elongated, stretching almost from top left to bottom right. It has a white line at the center that has a pink outline that transitions into bluish edges at far left and right. Thin lines from each magnified galaxy point to their appearances in the broader field. The top galaxy appears as a tiny dot at the upper center, and the bottom galaxy toward the left. Thousands of galaxies appear across most of this view, which is set against the black background of space. There are many overlapping objects at various distances. They include large, blue foreground stars, with Webb’s signature eight-pointed diffraction spikes, and white and pink spiral and elliptical galaxies. Numerous tiny red dots appear throughout the scene. This is a portion of a vast survey known as CEERS.
