We spent yesterday meeting with family at the palliative care unit of one of Melbourne's hospitals. Our family member had had cancer for the last 2 years and was admitted to palliative care on Wednesday. He died peacefully, just before midnight yesterday.
GM was larger than life, drove big trucks, had a big moustache, a wife and 2 lovely children who are now grown up. Taken too soon.
R.I.P. Deliberate ICM with added birds!

****************************************************************************************
The tall ship Schooner Jolly II Rover was designed by Naval Architect Meritt Walter as a mercenary vessel and was built in 1994 by Bock Marine of Beaufort, North Carolina. The Rover’s hull is constructed out of steel and at 80′ long with her trademarks sails, topmast and square rig she is a magnificent sight under sail as well as sitting quietly dockside.
The amazing Schooner Jolly II Rover is proudly owned by Bill Malone and is operated out of Key West’s Historic Seaport. He purchased the Jolly II Rover in 2003 to fulfill a lifelong dream of operating a classic, square rigged, topsail schooner.
At the time of purchase, the Jolly Rover was in Fort Myers, Florida. With the help of enthusiastic friends, Bill sailed the Jolly Rover back to his adopted home of New Orleans. With his new team, “The Pirates of Lake Pontchartrain” he offered day and evening sails on Lake Pontchartrain with daily sailing trips, sunset sails and sailing charters.
Several years later you could say that fate intervened. Hurricane Katrina passed through New Orleans and blew the Jolly II Rover back to Florida where the tall ship belongs – among the traditional sailing ships, both mercenary & merchant, of the Historic Seaport of Key West.

We went to the beach to watch the Strawberry full moon rise, but clouds filled in on the horizon, and an Easterly wind was whipping!
There would be no moonrise, but the moisture in the clouds provided a sunset light show in the form of a partial rainbow. It came and went all evening long.

Last week me and the little lady (Andrezza :) headed down to the bay to capture the sunset. It had been some time since we visited this spot. We forgot how photogenic it is. I caught her in a moment between photos just enjoying the beauty of the evening.

The shapes of the mountains stand out against the sky after sunset.
Sometimes, when you have no ideas or your time is limited, you can always do some good old sunset photos! :)

There was a particularly nice sunset last night. This was taken not far from home, just nipped out after dinner.

A timestack of last night's sunset. I think this sunset made a particularly interesting stack because there were different types of clouds moving different ways - I'll put together a video of the frames to post probably tomorrow, so you can see what made this photo.
Update: Here's the cumulative stacking video www.flickr.com/photos/jesspictures/19618693469/in/datepos...
And here's the classic time-lapse video: www.flickr.com/photos/jesspictures/19617674559/in/datepos...
I took photos at 6 second intervals with my Sony Nex 5T, using the timelapse app. Then, I stacked them together on the computer using StarStax.
