Stacked (comet center only), plus a few brush adjustments...came out much better than I initially expected (seeing conditions were pretty poor). Probably would have been better if I did it at 135 mm on Tuesday night, but it's something! DeepSkyStacker: 200 mm, f/2.8, 12800 ISO, 1.6 sec x 48 frames.
South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 390 stone steps down to the footbridge, and 10 metal steps (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 8,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, with a visitor centre, and bird hide at Elin's Tower. The tower provides a place to see Choughs, Peregrine falcon, Kestrel and various marine mammals like the Harbour porpoise seen at high tide, Grey seal, Risso's dolphin and Bottlenose dolphin.
This 60x14s interval stacked image was lightened in Photoshop. Fire Skies are one of the best uses of this type of post-processing. In this equivalent 14 minutes elapsed time, the start and end of the fire sky is depicted.

As the storm neared it developed this double and then triple stacked shelf cloud. The core was getting mean looking, it was green but had been turned yellow by the reddish setting sun behind the storm. COOL!
All tied up...
The Artist Shed is participating in Grab & Go a monthly madness event which runs from October 27th, 12 PM SLT until October 27th, 12 AM SLT (ok, 11:59 PM).
You have only 12 hours to come and slap the board and get a free item. The boards have a limit of 100 so you may want to act fast.
Only in Utah you will find amazing stacked rocks with Ravens enjoying the view from above. Don't you wish you could fly.

Winter light on Scotland's north east coastline with one of the Duncansby stacks.
Despite the clear skies there was a rim of cloud along the horizon preventing me from capturing the best light.
I counted about 15 seals with cubs on an inaccessible stretch of beach at the bottom of the cliffs. It was great watching their interactions. I was disappointed to see a number of large polystyrene chunks and other litter surrounding them

When arriving in Ethiopia, I always wanted to take photos of the stacks by the roads. It seems I only saw them in the first one or two days, and I don't think I saw them in southern Ethiopia. Thankfully I took a clear picture in the first day.
I guessed they were Teff stacks (so I didn't even ask the guide what they were).

Exhaust from a power plant stack literally lights up from the sun's rays early in the morning on a wintry December morning.
Hay bales shown in previous images are now stacked, awaiting transport.
Out & about in rural Norfolk uk.
A tornado warned supercell passing by Burlington, Colorado. May 27th, 2018. One of the more unexpected, photogenic storms I've encountered.

The "Bloody Foreland" didn't got it's name by the many ships that wrecked at the shore or some blooy battles that took place in the area, it's less dramatic... the name resolved around the red color the stacks appear in at sunset.
I photographed this wood stack on The Sleat Peninsula near Calligarry. The whole area used to be a big pine forest and all the trees had been cut down for timber, acres and acres of trees felled and piled up, it was quite sad to think that all these magnificent trees would be someone’s coffee table or bed frame next year. I really hope they plant more trees to replace them. We sneaked up the dirt track on a Sunday when none of the workers were around, really high up with an amazing view. When we passed the next day it was a hive of activity with loads of workers driving heavy plant machinery, and more trees falling. :-(
Sleat is a peninsula on the island of Skye in the Highland council area of Scotland, known as "the garden of Skye". It is the home of the clan MacDonald of Sleat. The name comes from the Scottish Gaelic Sléibhte (or Slèite), which in turn comes from Old Norse sléttr (smooth, even), which well describes Sleat when considered in the surrounding context of the mainland, Skye and Rùm mountains that dominate the horizon all about Sleat.
Sleat is a traditional parish that has several communities and two major landowners (the Clan Donald Lands Trust and Eilean Iarmain Estate). Sleat Community Trust (Scottish Gaelic: Urras Coimhearsnachd Shlèite), the local development trust, has purchased the Skye Ferry Filling Station at Armadale and in common with many communities is investigating the options for renewable energy production. It also owns Sleat Renewables Ltd., a timber production company. In October 2007 the Trust hosted the Highlands and Islands Community Energy Company annual conference. Recently the final section of a new double-track road through Sleat to Broadford was finished. Most teenage school-children in Sleat attend Portree High School, where there is a hostel for those who live particularly far away.
Beaker is so cheeky and Critter had no idea what was going to happen.

Both beautiful little bees :)
Focus stacked using Zerene.
Collywell Bay at Seaton Sluice, Northumberland, contains a cross bedded sandstone sea stack known as Charley's Garden.
My first attempt at focus stacking an image, this is 15 images stacked with photoshop
Happy enough with the general result as I can seen now what it is all about, don't know did I pick an image with too much detail or use too many images as there are quiet visible artefacts around the central stalks if the Lily. but it is all about learning for the next image
Smoke Stack. Back in the olden days (when I was a kid) it was brick right to the top& I swear you could see it all over the neighbourhood.

This 50x 5s stacked image was lightened in Photoshop. Fire Skies are often the best uses of this type of post-processing. In this equivalent 4.1 minute exposure, nearly stationary clouds resulted in just minor blurring.
Taken ~19 minutes before sunrise.
I was pleasantly surprised to see some traditionally stacked wheat yesterday - two large fields worth, a lot more hard work than a combine harvester... (although it could still be mechanised - just looks a lot nicer!)
There is a place down south of my way that those who know about it know where I took this photo. If you don't know where this is then perhaps just leave it be, I would hate to see a viewing platform full of six hundred point and shooters sharing the moment with me. As it is I had the location for the entire evening before and the next morning to myself at this place. The only evidence of movement there after I left in the evening and returned the next morning was a single set of footprints and two sets of paw prints.
This is a single frame shot against sunrise with the sky colors assisted by the DSE controlled burns going on in the area. There has been little enhancment and a lot of red taken out of the shot. I found that even though I shot at a neutral color temperature there was still a stack of red color cast that had to be taken out.
PS: To the abalone poachers that rolled up as I was walking out - F#$k you dirtbags.....
