Tonight I went out to the IceCube Lab building here at South Pole. I got lucky and saw this very nice aurora just above the building.

Thank you for your time, faves and comments, it's much appreciated.

The project for the week is to make a photograph where the subject is two things that belong together such as a lock and key or are improved when paired together such as chocolate and coffee. In other words, "goes together like _TEA______ and ICE".
If you seek inspiration, type "goes together like" into your search engine of choice.

What a pain it has been to photography these little *ahem*. I now also have a blue puddle to clear up on the floor. I'm just hoping the food colouring doesn't stain....too much.
Having a play with some flowers in ice cubes. I ended up putting them in a cup as they were sliding around too much on the surface I originally put them on so this isn't quite what I was aiming for but that's photography for you.
This is a picture of an artistic model of the IceCube neutrino detector at the South Pole, displayed in the Reaktorhalle of the Technische Universität Munich. The artist build this model with light and sound effect. Unfortunately, it didn't display real science, but an own interpretation of the artist of a neutrino detection. It was quite different to a real one. At least it made up for a nice picture ;)
Sabor, olor, color, es todo tan refrescante. El color cálido en otoño y alegre en verano..

I is for Ice cubes
Ice cubes - something most of us are familiar with and use on a daily basis. Since the invention of the ‘automatic ice maker’, now found in most freezers, they are also probably an item we more or less take for granted.
Back in the day, as some folks say, we used metal ice trays, like the one shown in the front left corner, filled with water and placed in the freezer until the water froze and voilà, you had ice cubes! Indeed, a little more labor intensive, but necessary if you wanted, say, iced tea on a warm afternoon. Then, later on, plastic ice cube trays were introduced, providing ice cubes in a variety of shapes for special occasions.
In honor of Valentine’s Day, just around the corner, I made heart shaped ice cubes from one of those plastic trays I’ve had for years.

Also making an appearance, on that little plate, are some very uncooperative ice cubes in the shape of Christmas trees, and so typical of being a cat, the most uncooperative ice cube of all, that cat shaped blob which refused to stand up, no matter what I tried.
Just take my word for it! LOL!

Did you know the earliest juleps were medicinal tonics made with rosewater to ease stomach ailments and respiratory issues and the roses were later replaced by mint?

SSC - Cubes
Must confess they are plastic "ice" cubes, I think they fit the bill quite well.Taken on an acrylic reflective surface with just low side light from the window and general ambient light.
Last night I took a 3000 image timelap from the roof of the IceCube Lab building. This image is one of those. The actual timelap video will come later, once our broken faster Internet connection is fixed again.
When walking back from the IceCube Lab to the station here at South Pole, I saw this magnificent aurora with the Milky Way above it. The building in the lower left is MAPO which hosts the Keck Array CMB telescope.
Today we had some very strong auroras here at South Pole. They were nice and bright above the DarkSector.

Happy Macro Mondays Flickr Friends.
... yes, one more ice capture for the theme ... ;))
I put some dried berries and coloured peppercorns in the ice cube tray when filling it with water ... these are the berries, a little bit thawed (the peppercorns really didn't work). I used a blue-toned LED-light to produce the blue colour of the icecube.
My first attempt to take a rather low key macro...
for Macro Mondays - theme of December 10th, 2018: vowel - meaning: photographing something that starts with a vowel (the letter a, e, i, o, u)
width of this capture: between 2 and 2.5 cm - the berries are 0.5 to 0.6 cm and the round icecube is 4 cm in diameter
Happy Macro Monday everyone!!
Thanks a lot for taking a look at my capture and for your feedback. I appreciate it very very much : ))

Danke für's Anschauen und Euer Feedback - ich freue mich immer sehr darüber!!
I have always avoided using plastic ice cubes... but they are actually an advantage if you do not want to dilute your drink... they resist melting :-)
The IceCube Lab here at South Pole contains a computer cluster that collects neutrino astronomy science data taken with a one-cubic-kilometer sized neutrino detector array deployed deep in the glacial ice. At sunset, which happens only once a year at South Pole, the building is glowing in a great yellow-orange light.

Not sure where I was going with this one! But, I ended up here!
Plastic ice cubes, Lenser P7, quality street wrappers and some back fibres.
Where the chuff do I go from here!

Thank you for your time, faves and comments, It's much appriciated
I'm sorry, I'm too busy with Enjoying my holidays, so It's not a very well thought subject for this weeks assignment. Just my holiday-mood-drink: a glass of aperol spritz. 😊
The Dark Sector at South Pole houses three main science buildings: MAPO, SPT and IceCube.
Huge news recently came from a project housed in SPT (South Pole Telescope). The project, BICEP2, discovered evidence of the rapid expansion of the universe (essentially lingering gravity waves from the Big Bang). SPT is the building in the back with the huge telescope. The building in the foreground is MAPO and looks at similar things as SPT does.
Ice Cube is not in the image. Ice Cube has hundreds of 'doms' in the ice that detect neutrinos.

Dodging the Ice blocks along the beach at Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon was pretty awesome and a little scary at times. I had read that photographers had been injured, washed out to sea and tripod legs broken as the freak waves hurled the invisible bergs up the black sandy shore. The ice size varied from tiny 'glassy marbles' to life size 'see-thru' cars. On occasions it was a matter of 'take the shot' and run for your life ; honestly !
