Today's cold and wet weather was good for visiting Tower Hill Botanical Garden, where there are two large orangeries. I should've taken note of this plant's name.
Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen's monumental sculpture Bottle of Notes soars nearly thirty-five feet and is the first public sculpture in the United Kingdom by these two internationally renowned artists.
Bottle of Notes is inspired by the history of Captain Cook, born in Middlesbrough featuring words from his logs as well as poetry built from tempered-steel echoing Middlesbrough's industrial heritage and continuing the legacy of the town's Ironmasters.

This image is the last in a series of three capturing the amazing sunset and "freaky" clouds in NYC one evening last weekend. If you missed the first two, you can check them out here and here.
This shot was taken just about 8 minutes after the previous one. The sky's color turned from deep orange to purple and red. The freaky clouds have all but disappeared. The joggers and business people who had previously stopped to look up and take pics with their phone cams have all departed to resume their journey home. It's too bad though because they missed this. The spectacular sunset and clouds were like rewards to compensate my travel woes earlier in the day.
I think this is a record for me - posting on three consecutive days! Of course, I'm sort of breaking my own rule of not posting the same type of scene/images twice or more in a row. Oh well...
Better on black.

TRA LUCI ED OMBRE L'ACQUA VA...
Venezia è lunga circa 5 chilometri ed è composta da 124 isole, 178 canali e 'rii' e 438 ponti. I canali sono i principali e più grandi corsi d'acqua di Venezia, sono una decina e sono tutti navigabili. I 'rii' sono più piccoli e non sono sempre vie d'acqua. I canali più famosi sono il Canal Grande - che scorre per tutta Venezia e termina al Bacino di San Marco, il Canale di Cannaregio - che collega il Canal Grande con la parte nord della città e il Canale della Giudecca - che divide l'isola della Giudecca dal Sestriere di Dorsoduro.

BETWEEN LIGHTS AND SHADOWS THE WATER FLOWS...
Venice is about 5 kilometers long and is made up of 124 islands, 178 canals and 'rii' and 438 bridges. The canals are the main and largest waterways in Venice, there are about ten of them and they are all navigable. The 'rii' are smaller and are not always waterways. The most famous canals are the Grand Canal - which runs through the whole of Venice and ends at the Basin of San Marco, the Cannaregio Canal - which connects the Grand Canal with the northern part of the city and the Giudecca Canal - which divides the island of Giudecca from the Sestriere of Dorsoduro.

This was imaged in the west until it passed behind a tree, west is not the best direction from my location. This was taken back at the beginning of September but it’s taken until now to get the enthusiasm up to process it as I’ve imaged and processed this on 3 other occasions but this is the first time with this camera.
Object Description:-
M27 the Dumbbell Nebula is a Planetary Nebula and lies in the constellations of Vulpecula. Its distance is about 1,360 ly with a visible magnitude of 7.5 and a diameter of 6 arcmin so it quit a small but bright object and is easily seen in a small telescope. It is believed that this star went nova about 14,600 years ago.
Note:-
As there is a lot of detail to be had in the Oiii (like most planetary Nebula and Super Nova remnants) I combined it with the Ha to create the luminance Layer.

As NS 33K slowly leaves the North Jersey Terminals it crosses the Passaic River from the industrial section of South Kearny to the Iron Bound section of Newark at Point-no-Point Drawbridge. The old Pennsylvania Railroad swing bridge carrying the train is a cousin to the no-so-far-away Portal Bridge on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor (which is pictured in the distance). Note the westbound Amtrak Northeast Regional train to the left of the frame.

الذكريات كلمة تحمل احداث السنين بل العمر كله
الذكريات كلمه لطالما ابكت الكثيرين
الذكريات كلمة فيها ما يفرح القلب وما يعيد الألام
الذكريات...الذكريات....الذكريات
كلمة ولكنها عن الاف الكلمات
قليله الحروف كثيرة الاحداث ما اقسى بعض الذكريات عند مرورها او تذكرها فقط
وما اجمل بعضها ولكنها قليله للأسف
صصوري ملك للجميع دون ازالة الحققوق
الصصورة الجايية عن تَخررج اختي زهررة
تتتخرجها بكرة ان شَاءء الله
23/6
تتخرج من تمهيدي ان ششاء الله
تتنتظر تبريكاتكم

I'm actually believing that no one has ever even accidentally hit that in the past 50 years. Not even one of the Kennedys! Maybe Teddy Roosevelt was the last to knock into it.

This is a comment on the galleries 'kiss the pain away' and 'show us a smile, then', which I compiled from among some of your brilliant and interesting photos over the past couple of days.
The x-ray is from 2010.
(I'll catch up with recent comments and uploads some time soon.)
