This image features both Mercury's terminator and limb. The terminator is the striking separation of night and day on Mercury. It is seen in this image with the change from dark, on the left of the image, to light. Mercury's limb is also captured, as we can see the edge between sunlit Mercury and space.

On an early visit to the Silver Terrace Cemeteries in Virginia City Nevada I was struck by the shape and textures of this old wooden grave marker before the dramatic sky. Try as I may, in the light I was unable to make out much of the old writing on the weathered old marker.
As I was setting up to capture an image this bluebird landed on atop it and sat there for a time. Depending on one’s views, some symbolism can be found here as the bluebird is considered a sacred messenger in several cultures and religious faiths.
People have been buried on these grounds, known collectively as the Silver Terrace Cemeteries, since the Victorian era of the mid-nineteeth century and the small fences that can still be seen around many of the older graves are indicative of this. Some of these fences are ornate old iron as well and are beautiful to look at. There are also many decaying old wooden fence pieces around many of the grave sites, adding to the historic, if somewhat macabre, feel of place. From what I can gather, the different sections are organized to fit the various religions of the many Comstock miners who make up a significant number of the dead buried there.
As one might expect there are a number of legends about spirits haunting the place including one of a former groundskeeper of the facility who’s said to wander the grounds in deep sadness at the dilapidation of some of the graves.
I don't think so, he must be a little off course.
I have posted in the past how difficult I find it to get a nice photograph of a Heron, well I think I have broken my wee jinks. This stunner was just there in front of me toda when I turned around, we both got a shock as you can see from the feathers on the top of the head. This Grey Heron looks more blue than grey.

The Messenger family has owned businesses in Clarksdale since about 1903, and this club is reputed to be the oldest continuously operated black-owned business in the area. In 1941, Fisk University sociologists meticulously noted the names of every song on the jukebox at Messenger's and four other clubs, and last year an import label published a multi-disk set of them all.

This week in 2004, the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, Geochemistry, and Ranging spacecraft was launched aboard a Delta II rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. Designed and built by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, Maryland, MESSENGER was the first spacecraft to orbit Mercury. Protected from the intense heat of the Sun by an innovative ceramic-cloth sunshade, MESSENGER provided the first images of the entire planet and collected information on the composition and structure of Mercury's crust, geologic history, atmosphere, magnetosphere, and the makeup of its core and polar materials. The spacecraft arrived at Mercury on March 17, 2011, and impacted the planet's surface April 30, 2015. MESSENGER was part of the Discovery program, managed at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center for the agency's Science Mission Directorate. The NASA History Program is responsible for generating, disseminating, and preserving NASA's remarkable history and providing a comprehensive understanding of the institutional, cultural, social, political, economic, technological, and scientific aspects of NASA's activities in aeronautics and space.

"Since Iris is the Greek goddess for the Messenger of Love, her sacred flower is considered the symbol of communication and messages. Greek men would often plant an iris on the graves of their beloved women as a tribute to the goddess Iris, whose duty it was to take the souls of women to the Elysian fields."

From Oliver and S Little Things to Sew book. LOVE this pattern.
There are so many great details in this cute little bag. Love the hardware on the strap and the side pockets. Also, this thing is sturdy. It stands up on its own--in this photo, it is empty. {No secret bloggy propping, like I sometimes have to do!}
