As much as I'd love to have clear skies for the aurora, I have learned that they can be visible in the clouds. It is more of a challenge and it takes long exposure photography to bring out the colors. This was taken at a time one of my aurora forecasting apps gave zero chance for seeing the aurora where I am.

First experiment with HTML 5 Canvas and Okapi.js. I'd like to see how much of my AS3 generative art code I can port over to Canvas in the coming months. And this means open source! Also works on iPhone. :)

One of those Seagull chicks that were hatched on the roof of a shed by the water less than 2 months ago. Two of them are still there. This one was on the edge of the roof, appearing to be making an attempt to take off. I have sen other similarly aged chicks on the rocks in the area.

Because I was away for 1 week, I now have to make good for one week of my studies at the university of applied sciences HTW in Chur, Switzerland … that's a lot of work :-/
inspired by Cecilia D.
Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Cant keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
...
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Above the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Cant keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

IMG_4577 - Second reasonable in the series of birds in flight or should I say attempting it.
So the first was www.flickr.com/photos/rustymarvin/7753796844/in/photostream/ a Little Egret, which was nice to get but all wrong. Here is a second one of 8 shots of a Crow (ok anything in flight is the target)
The committee concluded;
ISO 200-400
Aperture between 300- 500
This time a different lens, well it is 4x the price of the 75-300mm
Here is an extract of the Exif data
Exposure: 0.002 sec (1/500)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 85 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Lens Type: Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM
AFArea Mode: Single-point AF
Bit of a crazy moment in my head to get some form of composition, don't ask
So the ISO is nearly there should have 100, but you have to push it
Speed maybe a little to fast and should have been down at 300
Put single point on, which made a difference
Did record in Jpeg large and should have gone RAW
May be next time.

Digital learning help students learn in a more personalized way, giving them the tools to center their additional practice and learning around the topics in which they face more difficulty. bit.ly/31PFlnE
today i got to help out an artist on a nearby ranch. she's building a straw-bale house, and i helped in plastering the upper section near the window with a mixture of straw and clay applied with bare hands and molded to the frame.
it was something new and fun to learn about, and it was great to work with my hands again!
