A large sheet of ice that stabilized along shore on the St. Lawrence River. It’s pointing to the rapid river flow created by current and wind out from the southwest. We crossed over from the calmer to the rougher wavy water and canoed rapidly with wind at our back. Imaged below...
A view of the planet after yesterday's March Equinox on 20/03/22, which occured at approximately 16:32 CET.
This means that we've marked the beginning of the astronomical spring in the Northern Hemisphere!
During the week of the Spring Equinox the sun sets under the Deception Pass Bridge that connects Whidbey Island and Fildalgo Island in Washington State.

Thanks for stopping by and viewing this photo. The reason for posting this photo on Flickr is to learn so if you have constructive feedback regarding what I could do better and / or what should I try, drop me a note I would love to hear your input.
View on Black the way it should be seen!

CME blast and subsequent impact at Earth -- This illustration shows a CME blasting off the Sun’s surface in the direction of Ea CME blast and subsequent impact at Earth -- This illustration shows a CME blasting off the Sun’s surface in the direction of Earth. This left portion is composed of an EIT 304 image superimposed on a LASCO C2 coronagraph. Two to four days later, the CME cloud is shown striking and beginning to be mostly deflected around the Earth’s magnetosphere. The blue paths emanating from the Earth’s poles represent some of its magnetic field lines. The magnetic cloud of plasma can extend to 30 million miles wide by the time it reaches earth. These storms, which occur frequently, can disrupt communications and navigational equipment, damage satellites, and even cause blackouts. (Objects in the illustration are not drawn to scale.)

This EIT 171 image shows a wide variety of loops and active regions (lighter areas on the surface). Taken on November 9, 1998. The 171 filter shows emission from 8 and 9 times ionized iron at about 1 million degrees C.

What a glorious start to Spring! So glad we had the opportunity to experience such a wonderful sunset for our first paddle of the new season. The river is now virtually ice free. The conditions were a bit choppy with a modest northeast wind. Despite the air temperature of +2C, it felt a lot warmer with the sun on our cheeks.
The ruinous long barrow of Coldrum has a brooding presence about it. A fitting atmosphere for a site associated with a cult of the dead. I'm most thankful to Steve for so very kindly making the trip to this numinous location on the Spring Equinox
Growing on a section cut from a dead tree. Seems to be the right species, but all my fungus IDs are provisional.
It's been a tradition of mine for the last decade to shave my beard for the Spring. To all of my beard fans I can't promise it will grow back before next fall. In the mean time... here's to a beautiful Spring!
Broad Street Tunnel reopened to towpath and boat traffic.
After 3 months the tunnel is finally open again.
Was being reinforced by the Midland Metro Alliance as the Westside Metro Extension will be built above on Broad Street.
I saw a narrowboat and the Waterbus passing from Gas Street Basin towards Brindleyplace.
Seen on the Spring Equinox.

I found on the web that this lichen would more than likely be Pannaria lurida which forms small leaf-like scales crustose below but free at the tips, so it is squamulose.
I appreciate each and every visit, comment and fave here on my little corner of the world as seen through my lens.
This composite image presents the three most visible elements of space weather: a storm from the Sun, aurora as seen from space, and aurora as seen from the Earth. The solar storm is a corona mass ejection (CME) composite from EIT 304Å superimposed on a LASCO C2 image, both from SOHO. The middle image from Polar’s VIS imager shows charged particles as they spread down across the U.S. during a large solar storm event on July 14, 2000. Lastly, Jan Curtis took this image of an aurora display in Alaska, the visible evidence of space weather that we see here on Earth.

Here's my little Stormie playing tourist at the Stansteed stone circle site on this gorgeous spring day! :o) Click here to see the begining of the story.

Large sections of ice out on the St. Lawrence River mid-day as we paddled on the lovely Spring Equinox. ice sheets brought together by current and high winds we had to paddle through.
My best wishes and greetings on SpringEquinox and happy Easter to all my Flickrfriends and kind passers-by. Just choose which sentiment is closer to your heart!

After breaking through shoreline ice at the bay of Lakeview Park, Long Sault Ontario, we got into the open water of the St. Lawrence River canoeing rapidly. The waves were no more than a foot deep and we proceeded at a 45 degree angle to their flow for best stability dealing with the high winds. The canoe catches the wind that easily brings our speed to over 15 km per hour. The linear froth of water on the right side of the canoe was created by the bow paddle to position us at the safe 45 degree angle towards the waves. We reached the opposite shore in just a few minutes.
