Here the same huge prominence, just before it started detaching. Mosaic of 3 panels with very bad seeing.
Take a look also at my astronomy video channel.
Clouded out again today... (now that's a surprise!)
I managed to find a short break in the clouds long enough to grab a few AVI.

I want to get to grips with layering for an idea I have so here is a little experiment for this evening. Trying to suss out how to get the glass on top of the cat so it appears in the bulb. Any tips much appreciated!

Looking up at a light fixture outside my house a very close up macro of the inside of a light bulb in the fixture. The cloudy stuff is the dirt on the bulb and how the light interacts with it.
See it large on my blog.
Wow! This just hit my highest explore position ever thanks everyone!
La nature est assez suprenante dans ses textures et ses ressemblances. Les filaments de cette asclépiade ressemblent à une mèche de cheveux.
Nature is quite surprising range in its textures and similarities. The filaments of the milkweed looks like a lock of hair.
Merci pour vos commentaires. Thank you for your comments.
This week the Sun featured a very long filament that stretched at least half way across the Sun (Oct. 20-22, 2015). Filaments are elongated clouds of plasma that are tethered above the Sun by magnetic forces. They are often unstable and usually break apart in less than a week, though they can last longer than that. Filaments are darker than most of the SunÕs surface when viewed in extreme ultraviolet light, as it is here. Credit: Solar Dynamics Observatory, NASA.

Taken with Olympus OM-1 using Zuiko 50mm f/1.4 lens and 20mm extension tubes on Fuji Superia 400 then developed in Tetanal C41 Two Bath Kit.
Friday evening I went out for the sunset to a new local location I have found. Five minutes from the house stands this tree in the middle of a large feild. The tree is ontop of a small rise which makes it easy to isolate from the surrounding scenery in most directions. I think I will be returning to this location again and again through out the year.
This image is a combination of two exposures, one exposed for the foreground and one exposed for the sky. The two images where combined manually in Photoshop Elements 9 using layers and masks before boosting contrast slightly then resizing and a slight sharpening.

The Pana 14-42 II with a Raynox 150 Achromat lens makes a decent Macro.

Calliandra surinamensis is a low branching evergreen tropical shrub that's named after Suriname, a country in Northern South America. The plant usually has complexly branched multiple trunks and grows to a height of about 5 meters, although many sources suggest that it only attains a height of 3 meters. Left unpruned it grows long thin branches that eventually droop down onto the ground.
