Watson Lake was formed during the early 1900s by the construction of a dam on Granite Creek. It is a reservoir for the City of Prescott, AZ and is located about 4 miles outside of the city. It is known for its scenic granite dells. The area has camping and picnic facilities, but when we visited on a late September afternoon we only encountered another photographer and a couple of hikers and the lake was remarkably tranquil.

Prescott is located in central AZ and at an elevation of just over a mile so it is both cooler and greener than the Phoenix metropolitan area. The city was the territorial capital of Arizona in 1867 and the downtown area holds on to its history with numerous small shops and restaurants in an area surrounding the Yavapai County Courthouse and park. One of the streets adjacent to the courthouse is known as "Whiskey Row" and apparently was a notorious red light district.

Back in the corner of a barn stuffed full of all manner of junk, I've discovered this setup. It's a table with a couple of formed pieces of metal with holes throughout that I imagine steam goes through. And, then, there are all these forms for different sizes and shapes. I've never seen one of these setup anywhere.

Yesterday we took Jessie to her first ballet class. Does she have good form or what? :) Proud of my girl.

 

She loved the class. It's a once a week class for an hour each Saturday. It's a ballet/tap class, so we have to pick her up some little tap shoes too. She immediately took a liking to one of the other little girls in the class and ended up followed her around and partnering up with her.

My second pass at this object. Captured a few more hours of data to add to the first set. I used very short exposures with the rgb camera to avoid the bright star nearby (Gamma Cassiopeiae) from over saturating the surrounding area.

 

"Cassiopeia's Ghost Nebula is a reflection and emission nebula located in the constellation Cassiopeia. It is often referred to as "Cassiopeia’s Ghost" due to its wispy, ghostly appearance. Here is an overview of its key characteristics:

 

Location and Distance: Cassiopeia’s Ghost Nebula lies approximately 550 light-years away from Earth. It is located near the bright star Gamma Cassiopeiae, a variable star that plays a critical role in illuminating the nebula.

 

Appearance and Structure: The nebula appears as a faint, ghostly cloud, with delicate, wispy features that resemble spectral forms. It has a combination of emission and reflection characteristics:

 

Emission Features: The red hue of the nebula comes from the ionization of hydrogen gas caused by the ultraviolet radiation from Gamma Cassiopeiae.

 

Reflection Features: The blue tones in the nebula are the result of starlight from Gamma Cassiopeiae being reflected off the surrounding dust particles.

 

Illuminating Star: Gamma Cassiopeiae, a massive and highly energetic Be-type star, is the primary source of radiation that influences the nebula. The intense radiation from this star causes the hydrogen gas in the nebula to glow and the dust to scatter the light.

 

Visibility and Observing: Cassiopeia’s Ghost Nebula is relatively faint and best observed through long-exposure astrophotography. It can be challenging to see with small telescopes but becomes more apparent with the use of filters and under dark sky conditions.

 

Scientific Interest: The nebula is of significant interest to astronomers studying the effects of stellar radiation on interstellar matter. It serves as an example of how nearby massive stars can shape and alter the appearance of nebulae."

The California Dancer (Argia agrioides) is a damselfly of the family Coenagrionidae, native from Oregon south through California to Arizona, as well as adjacent parts of Mexico.

The male have brilliant sky-blue; thorax shoulder stripe variably forked (lower stripe can be only interrupted); blue and black abdomen with pale spots usually at side of black ring, blue "tail" segments 8-10.

 

The female have less colorful, thicker bodied than male; usually tan and black, one form male-like.

iPhone 7plus and Distressedfx.

I shot this photo at the conclusion of a weekend iPhone/iPad Artistry workshop that was given at a local artists’ guild in CT. The workshop was held in the front part of an art room generally used for non-photography art classes While loading up my iPhone, iPad, pencils and notes at the conclusion of the digital workshop, I noticed the ancient skeleton and old wooden easel in the back part of the same art room. It struck me how different were the apparatuses used in drawing, painting, etc. from those I use in the digital photography world. I was also struck by the way a painting student studies her medium versus the way a digital photography student like me studies mine. For each of us, however, we study our “Art” as Reduced to its Minimum Form. I used Snapseed for basic cropping and DistressedFX for a moody, minimal look.

Just beautiful

Tulips (Tulipa) form a genus of spring-blooming perennial herbaceous bulbiferous geophytes (having bulbs as storage organs). The flowers are usually large, showy and brightly coloured, generally red, pink, yellow, or white (usually in warm colours). They often have a different coloured blotch at the base of the tepals (petals and sepals, collectively), internally. Because of a degree of variability within the populations, and a long history of cultivation, classification has been complex and controversial. The tulip is a member of the Liliaceae (lily) family, along with 14 other genera, where it is most closely related to Amana, Erythronium and Gagea in the tribe Lilieae. There are about 75 species, and these are divided among four subgenera. The name "tulip" is thought to be derived from a Persian word for turban, which it may have been thought to resemble. Tulips originally were found in a band stretching from Southern Europe to Central Asia, but since the seventeenth century have become widely naturalised and cultivated (see map). In their natural state they are adapted to steppes and mountainous areas with temperate climates. Flowering in the spring, they become dormant in the summer once the flowers and leaves die back, emerging above ground as a shoot from the underground bulb in early spring.

Mitt bidrag till Fotosöndag 2020-08-23 på temat form. Ännu en "klassisk Magnus". Inget planerat under veckan blev en snabbt genomförd idé på lördagen när den dök upp i huvudet. Skönt att alltid ha en kamera i fickan nu för tiden.

The Lagoon Nebula is 8 in Charles Messier's "not a comet" list, 25 in the Sharpless catalog and 6523 in the New General Calalog.(NGC) It is a cloud of ionized hydrogen estimated to be 4000-6000 light years from earth. It can be seen with the naked eye as a gray/green patch in the constellation of Sagittarius..Almost in the center of the photo can be seen NGC 6530, an open cluster of young stars formed from material within the nebula. The entire nebula is roughly 110 x 50 light-years wide.

I go different ways on my long walks to and from work, and noticed this display the other day. On my way home I purposely went this way again to capture this image through the window.

_IMG0085

Suffering, in all it's varied forms, is what exactly?

A compounding of fractured soul, so matter-of-factly,

She said that He Himself said,

That surgery is an art gallery of faith instead

Masterpieces where health invariably decreases

Swan songs of broken hearts where love ceases

To enliven home truth's of carefree surrealism

One empty soul does not make another idealism,

Minimal is the grey day that paves the way for darkness

Looming on the horizon of unseen weathering blackness

A colossus of sky with the upper land

Nature the only card, saviour, and prophet to hand

 

Fear may only be a feeling, but the feeling is beyond fear itself

As they say, depression is expectant as we each try to find oneself

In the mire of news, be it the betrayal of the health of our citizens

Or just the assassination of natural resources wealth, that bloody well glistens

In the headlights and highlights of our obit we now live in memory alone

"A Song for Departure" plays upon the mind that cannot find adequate words to bemoan

The lack of attention paid to the well-being of Mother Nature, ageism spammed!

We are seeking the revolution for the revolving Earth whose door's are jammed

By the annual quagmire of festive exposure by all means time is spent!

Here by the grace of God, we breathe in life, in a place, in grace Heaven sent

 

It's tempting to stop reading, as it is to cease listening, turning a blind eye as well, why not?

But dare I say, it's nigh on impossible for very long to do the whole damned lot!

Mother Nature, She is suffering can't you see upon this obdurate land

We tune-in to be deceived, ghost hunters and faithful followers of a new kind of religious brand

Detect only what the illusion alludes to in the lost art of heart and soul

In part, life is already obfuscated with it's own toxins, we're the decade on parole

1988, 1998, 2008, I remember well, the future that is coming too soon

Here before tomorrow ever knows what to do with itself, we must find the answers to be in tune

Petty arguments wage wars within the minds of boys whose toys have been confiscated by ignorance

A belief of faith cannot be true if it sees red at every turn, nor can it bring hope for the children in whom we bestow what kind of continuance?

Benevolence is awaited with a youthful eagerness that has grown old waiting on the wings of fighters

Knives replace fists that substitute backs for tables in the cities full of such blighters

Intervention risks life and death for the removal of compassion brings the hooded underworld

That has now come up to grab society by the ruddy throat twirled

A society indeed, un-policed and unappeased the x-factor of fearless nerves

Can no longer meet with the supply, that which steals warns of what it serves

 

We're a breed apart though we never used to be and never should be

Walking tall when we should be down on our damned knees begging for forgiveness until we all finally agree

So the trepidant beggars of belief peaceably fly in the face of popular opinion,

For the standards of today will invariably fail the tests of time and ever-changing dominion

If you feel the force of scientific tribulation, will it numb the senses of tomorrow

Can the government's diet, passed fit for us all, sustain us through political sorrow?

If a smile should pass your face someday, cherish it's presence upon the lifestyle that forgot how to use it

Wear yourself well, but for the love of life we must address what does reciprocally befit.
