Scenes like this just never get old for me even though I continue to. I can recall walking this road 30 years ago. I don't think there's any recognizable change in its appearance after all this time. It's as desolate and lonely looking now as it was then. And that's the appeal for me. It's a secondary road at best, and sees comparatively little traffic. It's possible to stand out here right on the centerline for long stretches without having to flee from speeding cars. And I do stand here for long stretches. I always bring the camera, but spend most of my time just observing the landscape and appreciating the desolation. I derive energy from straddling the divide, the boundary between the adjacent farm fields. Could be the sense of casual geometry one gets standing at just the right angle. Not sure there's any scientific basis for any of this, but it feels very real to me. This is high ground and it's always windy up here. Uncomfortably so on cool days, but that's part of the experience so I just dress accordingly. Weirdly this is one of those places where the more off-putting the weather, the more attractive it is. My best times here are spent in the most awful weather conditions. Somehow nice weather defeats the desolation and weakens the emotional impact. Nope, it never gets old.
Toujours revenir sur ses spots préférés !
Surtout quand ceux-ci sont littéralement à côté de chez vous...
Et hop ! Un fumeur linéaire de plus !

This is my first completed image with the new ODK10 telescope from Orion Optics. It has taken a little tuning all round. but I think I'm there now!
NGC 7635, also called the Bubble Nebula, Sharpless 162, or Caldwell 11, is a H II region emission nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia. It lies close to the direction of the open cluster Messier 52. The "bubble" is created by the stellar wind from a massive hot, 8.7 magnitude young central star. The nebula is near a giant molecular cloud which contains the expansion of the bubble nebula while itself being excited by the hot central star, causing it to glow. It was discovered in 1787 by William Herschel. It is located approx 7800 light years away.

Just something a bit different to bring some thoughts to the world. Would it be cool if time were not linear and we could remember tomorrow?
Happy Wednesday

Galanthus, snowdrop (from Ancient Greek γάλα, (gála, "milk") + ἄνθος (ánthos, "flower")) is a small genus of approximately 20 species of bulbous perennial herbaceous plants in the family Amaryllidaceae. The plants have two linear leaves and a single small white drooping bell shaped flower with six petal-like (petaloid) tepals in two circles (whorls). The smaller inner petals have green markings.
Snowdrops have been known since the earliest times under various names, but were named Galanthus in 1753. As the number of recognised species increased, various attempts were made to divide the species into subgroups, usually on the basis of the pattern of the emerging leaves (vernation). In the era of molecular phylogenetics this characteristic has been shown to be unreliable and now seven molecularly defined clades are recognised that correspond to the biogeographical distribution of species. New species continue to be discovered.

What if time is not linear but capsules of events?
"Randomly" connected, interacting, interrelating, inter-are
Maybe when we observe it as events, suddenly whole new map of synchronicity opens up in front of our eyes......
Maybe just like that..life happens
I hope you are all having cosmic summer!!
My last series of 9 was outside of Las Vegas so I thought I'd take this next series back into town. This series is all from around @arialv and a heaven for an architectural photographer like myself.
Happy Saturday everyone. I got a line on you.

Actually the Electra Building in downtown Vanvouver. Originally constructed in 1957 as the BC Electric Building. The building was then converted to residential units in the mid 1990's. There are two distinct "fins" that have triangular panels that run from the top 21st floor to the ground floor. The triangular panels are illuminated at night in alternating pairs of blue and green colours.
