This is Rosa 'Bella Rosa' - a floribunda rose.
The perfect rose for love.... or not.
At the Roxborough Park Rose Gardens - where else?
Sydney's ultra cool rose gardens!!
Alfred Henry Whaling Reserve.
Castle Hill. The Hills District, Sydney.
And here is the perfect music for walking around the Roxborough Rose Gardens - it's Roxy Music with their classic hit-song 'Love Is The Drug'.
So check out the hilarious retro video clip. Mind you the two backing singers (on the stage behind Bryan Ferry) look pretty cool - especially the blonde. Even with her shoulder pads, lol.

Nome: Nebulosa da Águia, NGC 6611, Messier 16
Tipo: Aglomerado aberto estelar com nebulosidade
Distância: aprox. 7.000 anos-luz
Magnitude Aparente: 6,4
Constelação: Serpente (Cauda) [1]
A Nebulosa da Águia é uma notável região ativa de formação estelar localizada na constelação da Serpente (cauda). A nebulosa, uma nuvem gigante de gás interestelar e poeira, já criou um considerável aglomerado de estrelas jovens. O aglomerado é também chamado de NGC 6611 e a nebulosa como IC 4703. O aglomerado foi descoberto em 1745 por Philippe Loys de Chéseaux. Em 1764, Charles Messier catalogou novamente o aglomerado como M16 mas descreveu a presença de uma tênue névoa, provavelmente indicações da nebulosa. [1]
Este enxame estelar tem somente 5,5 milhôes de anos (de acordo com Sky Catalog 2000 e Gotz) com uma formação estelar ainda ativa na nebulosa; isto resulta na presença de muitas estrelas quentes do tipo espectral O6. Estima-se que o aglomerado tenha uma extensão de 15 anos-luz e a nebulosa tenha uma extensão aproximada de 70 x 55 anos-luz. [1]
Os destaques desta nebulosa não param por aí. Ainda temos nesta nebulosa os famosos "Pilares da Criação", estruturas com formato similar à estalagmites localizadas no centro da imagem. Essa região já foi alvo do telescópio espacial Hubble em 1995 criando imagens que encantaram o mundo. As colunas dos pilares são compostas de hidrogênio e poeira, que agem como incubadoras de novas estrelas. Dentro das colunas e na superfície, os astrônomos encontraram nós, ou glóbulos, de gás mais denso, chamados EGG (Evaporating Gaseous Globules - Glóbulos Gasosos em Evaporação). Várias estrelas estão sendo formadas no interior destes glóbulos. [2]

Name: Eagle Nebula, NGC 6611, Messier 16
Type: Open cluster with nebulosity
Distance: near 7,000 light-years
Apparent magnitude: 6.4
Constellation: Serpens Cauda [1]
The Eagle Nebula Messier 16 (M16) is a conspicuous region of active star formation, situated in Serpens Cauda. The starforming nebula, a giant cloud of interstellar gas and dust, has already created a considerable cluster of young stars. The cluster is also referred to as NGC 6611, the nebula as IC 4703. The discoverer, Philippe Loys de Chéseaux, describes only the cluster when recording his 1745-1746 discovery. Charles Messier, on his independent rediscovery of June 3, 1764, mentions that these stars appeared "enmeshed in a faint glow", probably suggestions of the nebula.[1]
This stellar swarm is only about 5.5 million years old (according to the Sky Catalog 2000 and Götz) with star formation still active in the Eagle Nebula; this results in the presence of very hot young stars of spectral type O6. The cluster has a linear extension of about 15 light years. The nebula extends much farther out, to a diameter of over 30', corresponding to a linear size of about 70x55 light years. [1]
The highlights of this nebula don't stop here. We found in this nebula the famous "Pillars of Creation", structures similar to stalagmites situated in center of image. This region was target of Hubble Space Telescope in 1995 that made incredible images. The columns of pillars are composed of hidrogen and dust, that act like incubator of new stars. Inside of columns and surface of this structures, the astronomers found nodes, or globules, of dense gas, known as EGG (Evaporating Gaseous Globules). Various stars are being formed inside this globules.[2]

Peace and clear skies! ♣
Here's a classic California sunset taken a couple of miles from my home. I remember back to when I shot this one, I had an errand to run and I wasn't sure if I was going to be back to the house by sunset so I had brought my camera pack with me. Unfortunately, I spaced out and left my tripod at the house (classic newbie mistake) so I sat the camera on the roof of my car on a mini tripod that I had in the side pouch of my camera pack then used a flashlight from my glove box with an AM/PM soda cup over the end of it to light the lime trees in the foreground. I added some more green coloring to the foreground to help complete the rainbow of colors. :)

So I was feeding some sparrows the other day, and I felt a flutter on my leg. I looked down to see a male sparrow looking at me from my lap. I put down a few sunflower seeds and the frenzy began. I took about 500 pictures while sparrows ate on my leg. Then to my surprise, this grackle joined in the feast.
