We woke up today (Sept 28th) to the news that the famous Sycamore tree which gives its name to Sycamore Gap on Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland had been cut down overnight.

The police have arrested a 16-year-old on suspicion of criminal damage. He's probably safer locked up at the minute, such is the real anger up here in the North-East at this mindless and irreparable act . www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-66952980

Whilst this shot was taken just over a year ago, it wasn't properly processed until today so I hope that the admins of the 100x 2023 group will look sympathetically on my adding this to the group given the circumstances.

Latest update 30/9: the 16yr old has been released on bail, and a 60 yr old male 'is helping police with their enquiries'.

This was somewhat after the moon came out of total lunar eclipse, shot from my back yard in WA, USA.

Since this supermoon lunar eclipse will be the only one in the next ten years, I got out of my warm bed and took a few images. I actually wanted to be more creative, but it was just too cold outside :-P Hope you like it!

This is a load of screws I found in the toolbox - no idea why I have them. I like how very abstract they look from above and with the focus on the very tip of the spiral. Taken for this weeks 'Spiral' theme for Macro Mondays.

Total Lunar Eclipse on Nov 8, 2022

I found this alone tree in a private property, and the moon can line up this tree once a year during the moonset. Fortunately it happened during the total lunar eclipse in this year.

La Défense. Main french business center.

Here, Total towers, buildings belong to the fourth world oil compagny.

Noreen found an ideal spot in the shallow crystal clear water's edge to get out her big watermelons. She just knew that once he spotted her, Norman wouldn't be able to resist getting a taste of her juicy melons.

Not edited. I taped solar glasses to my camera lens. : D

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.

As almost, this total eclipse of the Moon was outclouded. So the end could be seen here, only. Nevertheless, I´m glad to saw this view from my backyard.

Wie so oft, war der Blick auf die totale Mondfinsternis durch Wolken vrwehrt. Bin aber froh, wenigstens diesen Blick noch aus dem Garten erwischt zu haben.

Tonight's full eclipse was pretty spectacular. A Red moon as the it rose but laterly a more normal colour. I was amazed that the clouds cleared for much of the eclipse.

I came across this website which explained the genesis of the term "Blood Moon" earthsky.org/human-world/what-is-a-blood-moon-lunar-eclip...

Notice how the moon in the northern hemisphere looks "upside down" in comparison to here in the southern hemisphere!
