IC 1396A is the Elephant's Trunk nebula, located in the constellation Cepheus. The Elephant's Trunk Nebula is a concentration of interstellar gas and dust within the much larger ionized gas region IC 1396, at an estimated distance of about 2,500 light years.
At the heart of the nebula lies the open star cluster Trumpler 37, where several hot, young stars (less than 100,000 years) are thought to be forming. These stars emit copious amounts of hot plasma winds and energetic particles that ionize the gas in the nebula and causing it to glow with the characteristic red light of hydrogen atoms. The winds are also sculpting the nebula creating the central cavity, but also compressing the gas in dense regions and triggering a new generation of protostars, hidden inside the dust.
At the estimated distance of the nebula, the Elephant's Trunk is about 20 light-years long.
Thanks to all for your continuous support and kind comments. I wish to all my Flickr friends a happy and relaxing summer and looking forward for your beautiful photos and stories!

..HSS!!
This looks like a really simple shot and processing, but believe me, it wasn't. I shot it from across the harbor and it was so dark I couldn't really see what I was shooting. It took about 10 shots to get the one I wanted and about 10 attempts in Topaz Studio to get it looking the way I wanted.
I'm leaving in the morning to go back to the coast, so I should be packing but I decided to wash a load of clothes first..Crazy. Anyway, I can't check in until 3.
Legend says that Atlantis city was built by Poseidon, god of sea when he fell in love with a mortal woman Cleito. He made this city on top of a nearby hill and named it Atlantis. It is believed that he walked through these islands until he reached the biggest of them all- Atlantis and found it to be inhabited by people more beautiful and intelligent than rest of the world. It is here he first saw his future wife and fell in love with her.
If you have any questions about this photo or about photography in general, I will do my best to help, just post a comment or send me a Flickr mail and I will respond as quickly as possible.
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my photos, and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!! Have a great week my friends!! :)

So this is the Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse (1875).
Located at Seal Rocks - just a little to the north of Sydney.
Sugarloaf Point Lighthouse stands on a dramatic headland east of Seal Rocks village. Completed in 1875, it is the first lighthouse designed by colonial architect James Barnet and one of only two towers in Australia with an external stairway.
It was originally built to guide ships along the rocky coastline to the north of Sydney, after a number of incidents, including the shipwrecking of the SS Catterthun and the SS Rainbow.
Below the lighthouse are the Lighthouse Keepers’ quarters and outbuildings that have been refurbished to offer holiday accommodation for visitors.

This photo was my first attempt to process a Nikon (NEF) RAW file with Nikon software (Capture NX-D) before applying noise reduction in Topaz Denoise as a 16-bit TIFF file. Unfortunately, Topaz Denoise does not recognise edits made to Nikon RAW files, hence the necessity to save as a TIFF file. Further tweaks were then made in PS and Lr.

View of Darling Harbour and the 'James Craig' Tall Ship.
Photographed just after midnight.

Photographed from the very top of the fire escape stairs.
Wharf 7, Pyrmont - Sydney
I drove into the city last Saturday night to see the AFL football semi-final on the big Foxtel screens at the Harlequin Inn, Pyrmont. Then I wandered down to Darling Harbour via Star City, eventually finding myself here at Wharf 7, at around midnight.
So I wanted to get an overhead perspective of the James Craig Tall Ship and I noted the fire stairs on the wharf. Perfect. And only a warning sign for 'Authorised Personnel Only'. Obviously I ignored this and reached the top of the fire escape stairs around midnight, or so.

Description:
About 5,000 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus lies NGC 6888, the Crescent Nebula. Its arched and filamentary form was sculpted by the powerful stellar winds of Wolf–Rayet 136, colliding with slower material expelled during a previous red supergiant phase.
In this multiband image, crimson filaments trace hydrogen, teal clouds mark oxygen, while additional emission from sulfur and hydrogen-beta enriches the structure with subtle chromatic variations. The combined data highlight the complex network of shocks and ionized gas surrounding its central star, creating the intricate shell known as the Crescent Nebula.
Spanning about 25 light-years, the Crescent Nebula is a dynamic structure, destined to be dramatically reshaped when its central star ends its life in a supernova explosion.
Technical details:
The image was processed in an HOO palette, with H-alpha mapped to red and OIII mapped to green and blue. Additional H-beta and SII data were later blended in using a screen blending mode, with H-beta encoded in blue and SII encoded in yellow. The natural star colors were restored using PixInsights' Ballesteros blackbody estimator tool.

This image is from a recent walk using my infrared camera at Lindo Lake in Lakeside, California. It has the elements I look for in Infrared photography - sky with clouds, vegetation and water.
I used NIK Software's Silver Efex Pro 2 to conver the image to black and white. I have an album with over 200 black and white images in my cleverly titled Black And White Album.

As a natural consequence of the ever more complex gadgets and services, the need for some kind of software assistant arose. Going by many names and varying in functions and intelligence, Personal AIs are now a natural part of every mans day to day life. Personal AIs takes care of transactions, shopping, booking and household chores. Some people find it amusing to give their AIs personality and treat them as pets, others just use them as tools.
Personal AIs can transfer small parts of their core to machines in order to carry out various tasks. Shells are robotic machines that come in thousands of variants. Most Shells have their own governing AIs but they can also merge with Personal AIs and transfer their subroutines to them. Not many people can afford to choose other than the cheapest versions, but theoretically an AI can inhabit any Shell. Creative ways of using shells can of course be shared and downloaded by the AIs.
The Yogamabara Mechanization M-400 Multi-Purpose Shell is a commonly used type of shell. It’s very fast and agile. It gives the host AI the ability to follow it’s client around any ground based environment and has a full range of standard tools, like laser cutter, hydro spanners and standard data sockets to name a few. It’s animal-like form gives it personality and this has made Yogamabara one of the biggest manufacturers of Personal AI Shells.
Get yours today! Let your personal AI schedule a meeting and a free* testrun!
* Your AI will be analyzed and mined for suspicious behaviour, transactions and interactions.

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]

This is the rear entrance to an old office building on 6th street here in Austin, Texas. Probably built around 1860 or so. I took it this last weekend while down at the Pecan street festival. There weren't any really great shots from the festival but I was able to get some cool shot from town.
Phew! Here we are, already humpday..;))
