GUM 15 is an emission nebula in the Vela constellation, around 3000 light years from earth.
Perhaps a somewhat less familiar designation, the GUM catalog contains a total of 85 nebulae. It was put together by astronomer Colin Stanley Gum (and hence named after him).

GUM (Russian: ГУМ, pronounced [ˈɡum], an abbreviation of Russian: Главный универсальный магазин, tr. Glávnyj Universáľnyj Magazín, literally "Main Universal Store") is the main department store in many cities of the former Soviet Union, known as State Department Store (Russian: Государственный универсальный магазин, tr. Gosudárstvennyj Universáľnyj Magazín) during the Soviet era. Similarly-named stores were found in some Soviet republics and post-Soviet states.

Catherine II of Russia commissioned Giacomo Quarenghi, a Neoclassical architect from Italy, to design a huge trade center along the east side of Red Square. The existing structure was built to replace the previous trading rows that had been designed by Joseph Bove after the 1812 Fire of Moscow.
By the time of the Russian Revolution of 1917, the building contained some 1,200 stores. After the Revolution, the GUM was nationalised.

With the façade extending for 794 ft (242 m) along the eastern side of Red Square, the Upper Trading Rows were built between 1890 and 1893 by Alexander Pomerantsev (responsible for architecture) and Vladimir Shukhov (responsible for engineering).

GUM - Russia's oldest shopping center In the heart of Moscow, on Red Square, is the oldest and most famous shopping center in Russia.
Red sap oozes out of the bark, hence red gum. The ants must have been getting nectar.
I went for a short walk in the bush the red gum had just started flowering but not much else.
Gum tree.
It stands tall like a silent sentinel watching over it's domain.
As for the cloud formation, nothing.
No rain.

The beauty of these eucalypts in the morning sun would have made the entire 13.5 km bushwalk in the Freycinet National Park worthwhile in itself. I felt a genuine thrill when I saw the way the sunlight highlighted the freshly exposed new bark as the older layers had been shed and lie on the forest floor. Nature renewing herself. I'm not a tree hugger, but I could easily hug these beauties.
If you enlarge this shot you'll see the scribbles on the bark from which the trees get their name. The latest scientific information on this was discovered by Australia's premier science agency, CSIRO:
"The ‘scribbles’ on scribbly gums are an icon of the Australian bush, but until recently very little was known about the cause of these distinctive scribbles. A team of CSIRO researchers were the first to uncover the mechanism by which the scribbles are made, along with the biology and lifecycle of the moths responsible. In the process they described eleven new species of moth and redrew how the Ogmograptis species fit into the moth family tree."
