It looks like a solar system with the planets revolving around the sun.
Parece como un sistema solar con los planetas girando alrededor del sol.

(No, not really - this is a ruby red grapefruit up close and backlit with a torch)
"Life... is like a grapefruit. It's orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast." - Douglas Adams
If you think you understand the meaning of this quote, please please let me know, as I am racking my brains ;D

During an evening of thunderstorms while home in SD this summer I was standing in one place observing (and snapping) two storms. Both were distant and no threat to me, but they were close enough to see the lightning and the clouds building in the diminishing light.
I had a really good time this night. The light was wonderful. The clouds were awesome! And the storms just kept building and rolling through.
Yes, the sunset light really hit the cloud like that. It was AmaZing!
Enjoy.
We landed on the sun and set up a base camp - an amazing feat. Those aren't petals...they're solar flares.
Smile on Saturday - "Vivid orange".
Every morning you have the chance to be aware, that you are part of a solar system. And you never will forget the moment when the first sunbeam touches you.
Tulipa 'Blue Spectacle' from the inside out. "Somehow" a crate full of tulips from the Lyman Conservatory Bulb Show ended up at my house... :)
Backlit Silver Spotted Skipper getting its energy level up by spreading its wings towards the afternoon sun.
Common throughout the summer and into the fall season.
A land-based shot of the fab sunset the other day (I posted the drone shot before) over these local fields of barley. The way the sun shone through the clouds leading to these crepuscular rays was really lovely for nealy 20 mins.
Today (25Oct22) we could see a partial solar eclipse from The Netherlands.
I used a 10 + 6 stops filter to create this capture.
Have a great day, cheers!
Location Hellevoetsluis, The Netherlands

Recently seen around noon in the Ahr valley with the sun high and cirrostratus clouds.
It is a light effect through reflection and refraction of light on ice crystals.
Kürzlich um die Mittagszeit im Ahrtal bei Sonnenhöchststand und Schleierwolken gesehen.
Es handelt sich dabei um einen Lichteffekt durch Reflexion und Brechung von Licht an Eiskristallen.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

A lonely road leads to the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility in the California desert near the Nevada border.
Some pretty intense atmospherics on Lindisfarne last week. Apparently this is caused by the reflection and refraction of light by tiny ice crystals in the atmosphere.
Such big skies up there.
Press L - gives it some more impact.
HSS!

This image captures the sun in full diva mode, high in the sky, halo blazing, lens flares descending like a celestial mic drop. Below it, cumulus clouds puff themselves up like they’re trying to get noticed, while the water just lies there, shimmering politely, pretending not to be overwhelmed.
It’s a scene that screams “I’m beautiful and I know it,” with the sun doing everything short of singing its own theme song. The clouds stretch across the horizon like they’re auditioning for a weather app background, and the water reflects it all like a passive-aggressive mirror.
This is nature’s version of a group selfie where one person clearly didn’t get the memo about subtlety.

I finally put together a composite of my favorite images of the 2024 solar eclipse. I was fortunate to have crystal clear skies in Quebec for the duration of the eclipse.
Mt Coolum taken from east side of Mt Ninderry. It was another 3 am start to see the sunrise from the top of Ninderry but it was too overcasted and the sunrise was a non event. Slightly disapointed with the pictures we had taken so far we decided to pack up and go. Just as we were about to leave the sun light started to filtrate from between the clouds giving this amazing view. One of the ironic things about this picture is that the sun started to shine quite strongly in the area where the new Sunshine Coast Solar Farm (Valdora) is being built. Good spot for a solar farm I say.
