Decided to draw one of those a day for next month

 

Hang out long enough and you start to become each other…just ask these galaxies.

 

In Webb’s latest image (shown at right here), two galaxies in the process of merging are twisting each other out of shape. Bright tendrils of star-forming regions connect their two glowing cores. These star-forming regions are particularly bright in infrared light, the wavelengths that Webb specializes in.

This image: Here are complementary Hubble & Webb views of this galactic pair. While Hubble shows the merger in visible light (left), Webb’s image shines in infrared (right).

Image description: Side-by-side comparison of two merging spiral galaxies as seen by the Hubble and Webb telescopes. Each view is labeled. In both images, the two galaxies form a bean-like shape together, with the more distorted galaxy above and to the left of the other. The background is black, and many tiny distant galaxies dot the scene. On the left, Hubble’s image shows the galaxies in white, with faint blue swirls of star formation and reddish brown dust. There is a bright star with four diffraction spikes above the galaxies surrounded by a pale arc of dust. On the right, Webb’s image shows the same galaxies in blue, as well as much brighter, clearer spiral tendrils of star-forming regions in orange-pink. To the right of the top galactic core, faint diffraction spikes stretch out of a particularly bright star-formation clump. The same star above the galaxies has a set of eight diffraction spikes that are much shorter than in Hubble’s view, and the arc of dust around it is more transparent.

Designer labels.

 

I was doing a project for Age Concern, that’s how I came to be in this retirement home. They wanted specific images for a book, so I had set up the image I needed, when I spotted this gentleman looking very interested at everything I was doing.

He sat by himself, I had some time, I walked over to him and had a very lovely chat, he wanted to know all about the project.

It struck me again how lonely people often are and a bit of human kindness, some attention and a laugh can make their day (and mine!).

I saw things were ready for the next shot when he asked me:” was I not going to photograph him?”

So I said of course… that made him very happy yet he did not feel like smiling, which was fine by me, I liked his curiosity.

It was only after the development and the viewing of the negs that I saw what I really had captured!

 

I wonder if the designers imagine who they're all designing for! They probably think only of the young and fashion conscious?

Do they ever think where their designer labels might turn up?

This is a poignant and I hope also very thought provoking image.

I love this photo because it is full of social commentary and has a lot to say.

 

Have a joyful day and thanx for viewing, Magda (*_*)

  

Another difficult one to print, backlight, no flash, just some neon lights on the ceiling, it all adds to the atmosphere.

I often like the discipline of touching back the basics, one camera, one lens, grainy 400 asa b&w film, and go out there.

I might take the photo again and get it more symmetrical, if it keeps on annoying me like this.

This is the complex of nebulosity that has become known recently as the Cosmic Question Mark, a good name as its official designations are confusing.

 

The top arc is usually labelled as NGC 7822, and the middle region as Cederblad (Ced) 214. However, some charts and references label Ced214 as NGC 7822, as it is brighter and might have been the object William Herschel saw when amassing observations in the 18th century for his General Catalogue, in which he describes NGC 7822 as "eeF! and eeL!," meaning really really faint and large! The little "dot" of the question mark is the faint and photographic-only nebula Sharpless 2-170, surrounding a little cluster Stock 18 .

 

The field is embedded in dust, indicated by the brownish-yellow tint of the background sky at centre, contrasting with the dust-free bluish starfields at top and bottom. Even the star clusters are yellowed, notably King 11 at top right and NGC 7762 embedded in the nebula at right above the bright star. The loose and sparse cluster Berkeley 59 lies embedded in Ced 214..

 

Most of the field lies in Cepheus but the lower bits of Ced214 and Sharpless 2-170 lie across the border in Cassiopeia.

 

This is a blend of filtered and unfiltered stacks: 10 x 8-minutes at ISO 3200 through the IDAS NB1 dual narrowband filter, and 10 x 4-minutes at ISO 1600 with no filter, all through the SharpStar 61 EDPHII apo refractor at f/4.6 with its reducer/flattener, and with the red-sensitive Canon Ra, all on the Star Adventurer GTi mount/tracker, autoguided with the Lacerta MGENIII autoguider, taken as part of testing the mount. No darks or LENR applied here, but the autoguider applied some dithering offset between each frame, to largely cancel out thermal noise hot pixels when the sub-frames were aligned and stacked. Taken Sept. 21/22, 2022 from home in Alberta on a very clear cool night.

 

Shooting and then blending filtered with unfiltered shots provides the best of both worlds: lots of reddish nebulosity set in a sky with natural coloured stars and background tints. I applied a slight level of star reduction with a "starless" layer created with RCAstro Star XTerminator, but with only 25% opacity to just reduce but not eliminate stars. In fact, StarX did a poor job eliminating all the stars in this image. But Noise XTerminator did a great on reducing fine-scale noise. Nebulosity was brought out with DM1, DM2 and colour-range luminosity masks created with Lumenzia plug-in panel for Photoshop. Finishing touches with a High Pass Sharpen layer and a Paint Contrast layer (the latter added with TK Actions panel) boosted fine-scale contrast to the nebulosity.

»[...] In our project, we want to gain some insights into discussions taking place on the Beijing-based Q&A internet platform Zhihu 知乎. In particular, we’re interested in questions and answers related to the global semiconductor shortage, and the answerers’ argumentation. To somewhat quantify what is going on, we identified several typical ways of reasoning in the answers: historical, technological, nationalistic, China-critical, geopolitical and off-topic. [...]«

 

Each screw-top jar represents one of the labels.

A study of a label that has been ripped off from a light post - and of course a study of how the bush in the background is rendered as colourful bokeh of green, yellow and red.

I caught this red label in a simple jean

It’s funny how we wear labels. I never take this off it’s my medic alert bracelet and it’s important. I label myself with the important things about me. Labels but they don’t define me
