Space Shuttle pin badge and coin, keepsakes from a fantastic trip to Cape Kennedy Space Centre 6 or 7 years back!

Named as such because Elton John is performing is last UK concert ever as I process and post this while watching Glastonbury.

Another frame from my Kingfisher fly-by encounter. This guy was moving at a pretty good clip.

I think Rocketman is only going to be moving as fast as a tow truck can haul it. Decidedly his days of power and thrust are behind him.

This boat had been sitting in high weeds for a couple of years. A man was bush hogging the property the other day and had to pull this boat out of the weeds in order to mow. As soon as he left, I rushed in to capture the glorious moment. I’m sure it will be another two years before it is mowed again.

Welcome to Sydney's 'Sculptures by The Sea', 2024.

See the amazing video:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqBbTA63tns

And for more videos see:

sculpturebythesea.com/bondi/

Sculptures are exhibited each year in October & November, along the coastline between Bondi Beach and Tamarama Beach.

This is one of the sculptures at the Tamarama Beach end of the walkway. I photographed this yesterday, Wednesday 30th October, 2024, at sunset.

I have called this sculpture 'Rocketman'. And so here is the amazing 'Rocketman' song by Elton John. Check the video!!

But this sculpture is actually called 'Naught Bondi' by an artist known as Milarky.

Elton John - Rocket Man

Well I decided to end my busy week with a feel good Rocketman image! Such a busy week and tomorrow I have to take some graduation pics for Sam's friend and co-worker. I'm not too crazy about doing it...we'll see! Have a nice weekend everyone! :)

Rocketman.

She packed my bags last night, pre-flight

Zero hour, nine A.M.

And I'm gonna be high

As a kite by then

I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife

It's lonely out in space

On such a timeless flight

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time

'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find

I'm not the man they think I am at home

Oh, no no no

I'm a rocket man

I've just received this wonderful Elton John Custom minifigure from @minifigurehq and all I can say is WOW It's an amazing custom which even comes with it's own highly detailed Goodbye Yellow Brick Road custom album tile. Yet again more wonderful work from those peeps @minifigurehq

Hide under the coffee table.

Rocketman senses weakness from the West.

I feel kinda bad getting the dog to do something she's not supposed to be doing, but her version of 'Rocketman' is soooo much better than Elton's.

the rocketman - future is near.

I just can't stop creating little scenes, with my custom Elton John minifigure I got from www.minifigures.com/minifigures/

I am of the age that when he and the others aimed for the moon and the stars, they carried my dreams with them. They had the right stuff!

An F/A-18 pilot with VMFA-112 'Cowboys' taxis in at MCAS Miramar with a load of Zuni five-inch high-explosive rockets following a Close Air Support sortie over Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat Center 29 Palms. If I recall correctly, high winds in the target area led to delays in the JTACs on the ground approving the aircraft to strike, which is why these Hornets came back with most of their ordnance.

Shot for my article on VMFA-112 for Combat Aircraft Journal magazine a few years back.

This little contraption is a rocket launcher. It was causing a lot of excitement amongst these little dudes, they were all fighting over who was gong to go next. The mothers decided to make some rules.... one at a time. Little Matt on the right just couldn't contain himself and when it was Dan's chance he did a premature launch himself.

Since Richard Branson successfully rocketed into space and landed safely today, I thought it appropriate to post this photograph of Rocket Liquors.

Today we are driving to the Black Rock Desert in Nevada to spent a weekend at Balls 30, a big experimental rocket launch - the same place where Burning Man takes place. Can't wait!

This photo is from last year. About 300 rocketeers gathered to launch high power rockets. At night it's time to relax and socialize. We took along a comfy antique chair from home to shoot portraits on the playa of the Black Rock Desert lakebed. The playa is big, about 200 sq mi (520 km2). Our friend Tony poses with his rocket at moonrise, while glancing at the night sky.

I processed a balanced and a realistic HDR photo from two RAW exposures, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image with a higher contrast except for the person. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Over the weekend we joined a rocket launch event at a big Californian ranch called Snow Ranch, located east of Stockton. The event is organized by LUNAR, the Livermore Unit of the National Association of Rocketry. Tony Cooper, a committee member carries his piñata rocket to the launchpad. Candy rains out of the sky to the delight of the children.

Macro Mondays - Inspired by a Song "Rocket Man" by Elton John

He's not quite up to snuff...but doing much better. Now Penny has goopy eyes and some of the symptoms. I might have to take one of them in to the vet and if I can't get rid of this bug. At least it hasn't been real bad. Well off to work tomorrow...this one to two days per week isn't bad! :) Have a nice evening all! :)

Saturday 21: Rocket is doing very well! Thank you for all the nice comments and well wishes!!! :)

Just to let acouple people know who've asked what kind of dog he is....he's a mini dapple Dachshund. :) Probably weighs about 18 lbs.
