Lunar Eclipse on May 16, 2022 from Italy
Credit: Giuseppe Donatiello
The early hours of May 16, 2022, was not an easy eclipse. The Moon was well below the threshold of good resolution due to an annoying haze and the progressive absorption effect operated by the atmosphere, well perceptible during the advancement of the phenomenon.
Having taken standard shots, normalized automatically, the brightness is indicative of these factors with the addition of the light of the incipient dawn.
The first shot is with the Moon still completely out of the shadows. Then there are some shots during the penumbral phase, in which there is a progressive shading of the advancing side. With the beginning of the partial phase, all the shots are equally spaced until the last one, when the Moon was no longer visible even by extending the exposure.
Please note that the images were taken from Italy (coordinates in the localization TAG).
All shots were taken with Tair-3S (unit 2) + 2x Panagor telephoto lens on Kodak EOS 4000D (body2) at 200 ISO - 1/400s. Tracking was guaranteed by an EQ5. Other data in the EXIFs.

Grazing is still allowed in certain areas of the Mojave National Preserve. This surprises some that grazing is allowed in a unit of the National Park System. At last count, livestock grazing is currently permitted in 32 units of the park system. In these cases, grazing occurred at the time of designation and in most cases has historical significance. In the case of Mojave, it is a Preserve not a National Park and preserves allow for limited activities like grazing , mining , etc. This is a comfort to the residents who want things to stay as they have known them. These folks lived in the area long before the Preserve was designated by an act of congress and resent government telling them what they can and can't do. However grazing ( and the other commercial activities) remains a disappointment to those, including some residents and visitors, who have long wanted a Mojave National Park. Neither side likes all of the compromises that were needed to reach agreement at the federal level to set the lands aside. Many on both sides of the issues consider compromise to be a "dirty word". However without it, we wouldn't have the protections that have been given to this beautiful and lonely landscape.
From a visitor's perspective, Mojave Preserve is a bit different from a typical large unit in the National Park System. There are no gas stations except at the edges in the preserve, no hotels, few places to eat;, and as I can testify, bathrooms are few and far between. Visiting the preserve takes planning (and a full tank of gas). But such has always been the case for desert adventures. With all this said, the eastern Mojave is a wonderful place to visit even with a few cows.
This photo was inspired by the System Of A Down song Spiders. I wanted a very dreamy, surreal feeling to match the mood of the music.
What was perhaps most interesting to me in editing this is there was an effect I wanted, and I knew exactly how I would have done it if I'd been painting this picture instead of it being a photo. After some thought I was able to figure out how to translate the technique into Photoshop, and now I've got another tool in my kit :)

back to Venice and a walk round the Dorsoduro area. Fresh water has always been a problem in Venice so they built a system of tanks, wells and fountains to store rainwater under the courtyards .
AAA came to my house last Monday to see if my battery needed to be replace. My car wouldn't start. My battery was three years and 3 months old. It did need replacing. The life expectancy is about two years, so my old one did well.
I was impressed with this Midtronics test unit which evaluated the entire electrical system in my 1996 Toyota Carola.. Everything checked out fine. Only the battery needed to be replaced. The service guy replaced it on the spot. It should last another three years, plus or minus.
I am also entitled to a free servicing at a specific auto service center nearby. I love Triple A!!

Thats our way to get a well presentation for our minfigures.
There is a standard base for one minfigure wich can be connected with another one. Two bases are connected by the legs of a minifigure in the retral line. So you get two lines of minfigures with a great view of all of them.

This crawler original idea is from a video by master technic builder Akiyuki, posted on Youtube in July 2018.
I've been kind of obessed with this since then, and this is my latest, and I guess final, iteration on this idea.
Everythinkg above the two yellow beams is for motor and gear reduction, everything below is the actual movement system.
I use a third party self powered M motor to keep the size as low as possible and be able to make mocs like the steampunk one
Taken a few weeks after this year's opposition. Very chuffed with this one!

Volvo B7RLE Wright Eclipse Urban's YJ08 XYB and YJ08 XYC have gained a bright yellow overall advertising livery to promote York's brand new iTravel 'York By Bus' smartcard system which has been implemented by the city council with money from the Better Bus Area Fund so as to improve accessibility to buses.... for a relatively compact city, York has quite a diverse bus scene with no less than 9 different companies operating regular stagecarriage services in and out of the city - the aim of the smartcard system is for one card to be able to be used on any bus operated by any of these companies in the city. On-street terminals have been installed over the last few weeks and have undergone commissioning ready for the system going live in November.
Originally part of the Park and Ride fleet, these two buses were de-branded and initially operated route 13A in a basic silver-only livery but more recently have been dual purpose and operate any route as and when required. 69363 was the first to become a 'flying banana' with this overall promotion livery with 69364 following a few months later. Here and now a target of mine has FINALLY been achieved after several weeks of trying: with both on the SIlver Line 9 P&R to and from Monks cross today I have been able to get both of them together properly with no other traffic in the way, including photos of them side by side.
