I was watching and taking a few pics of a group of pretty good surfers on Flagler Beach and enjoying the show when this young girl... maybe 10 years old... started crushing it! She was a sight to see and I was fortunate enough to get some pics of her. I waited for a while hoping she would come in from the water so I could share pics with her maybe... but to no avail. I had to go and she was still putting on a show. If anyone knows her... she has no idea her pic is here on Flickr!
Crafted around 1780 this is a fine example of Lockey Hill's prolific work, which was unfortunately cut short after he was hung for horse theft in 1796! His family would go on to found Hill & Sons, probably the finest instrument workshop ever to exist in England.
The cello is seen from the inside. It's currently in the process of restoration. It needs a lot of work but someone's going to have an absolutely exquisite instrument once this is all done and dusted!
This is part of a series I'm undertaking on the internals of fine instruments. I use a special technique called focus stacking which has the effect of making these small spaces seem vast. This is a simple optical illusion. Our brains are wired to expect close up macro shots to have a shallow depth of field. By combining dozens, sometimes hundreds, of shots I ensure that the photo is sharp from front to back. This tricks the mind into believing that the image is of something much larger than reality.
This is a stack of 18 photos taken with the Laowa 24mm Probe lens on a Lumix S1R.
A member of the breed of horses unique to Iceland comes up to greet us as we pass along the highway.
Another crazy and unpredictable year is about to end. It wasn’t an easy year for many of us but we made it through.
My last picture of the year (taken just a few days ago) sum up how many of us feel about 2021. Its like “walking on the edge”.
Lets hope next year would bring some sort of normality and happiness to all of us .

Fresh out of the bodyshop is this Arriva North West owned Volvo B5LH Hybrid with Wrightbus Eclipse Gemini 2 bodywork. Those eagle-eyed folk will notice it is yet to receive the new decals. It is registered MX13 ABU with the fleet number of 4527 and is captured working the 410 service to New Brighton.

Texturas que invitan a tocar y gozar con ellas. Invitación a sumergirse en el yo interno y hacer una introspección para renacer cada día.

Capturing the Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex was like my own personal quest to find the 6 Infinity Stones (which ironically share some of the same colors as many of the objects in this image), and I’ve have been completely obsessed with capturing it. The journey started back in 2020 and ended on the 5th of October 2021. I originally finished collecting data on this object at the end of August 2020, but I decided this year to add Hydrogen-alpha (Ha) and, in the process, like any astrophotographer, I decided the image needed more data, lol. I always envisioned capturing an additional celestial object passing in front of the Cloud Complex, but at the time I had no idea when such an event would occur. When I began collecting Ha in April of this year I discovery that C/2020 T2 Palomar would be passing in front the Complex in October 2021. To be honest, I thought it would be pretty much impossible to capture the comet passing in front of Rho Ophiuchi. With the limited time that Rho Ophiuchi would be in the sky at this time of year combined with the very short window to capture the fading comet, I knew I’d have to get extremely luckily. Not to mention I had no idea what the weather would be like when I was planning this back in April, or even if it would come out the way I envisioned it. But sometimes you get a win in this hobby, the conditions and timing were right, and I was able to capture the comet before it passed out of the Cloud Complex completely.
Thanks for viewing and Clear Skies everyone!
Info about the Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex and comet:
Located in the constellation Scorpius, the large multicoloured Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex, contains several objects including reflection (blue), emission (red) and dark nebulae as well as a few globular star clusters. The bright shining yellow star Antares (lower left) is about 550 light-years away. While the globular cluster (M4) at the bottom right top is one of the nearest globular clusters to Earth at 7,000 light-years away. The smaller globular cluster between Antares and M4, which is NGC 6144 is nearly 33,000 light-years away!
The comet C/2020 T2 Palomar, was recently discovered by the Palomar/Zwicky Transit Facility survey on the night of October 7th, 2020. This celestial object won’t return to the inner solar system for over another five millennia (the orbital period of this comet is ~5,550 years). The comet topped out at +9th magnitude in August and is now rapidly fading low in the dusk sky. The green comet can be seen near the center of the image, next to the blue reflection nebula on the left.
Tech info:
This image is a 4-panel mosaic. Individual (Ha, L, R, G & B) channels were stacked in AstroPixel Processor and processed in PixInsight, with finishing touches applied in Photoshop. Several telescopes and cameras were used to capture this image. Information regarding filters and exposures can be found below:

Early morning mist over Lake Sarah, looking towards Arthurs Pass, New Zealand. Showing water in 3 forms.
Surprisingly the former Santa Fe semaphore signals in New Mexico will survive into 2022. Installed nearly 100 years ago, it's simply amazing they have hung on. In a recent trip I observed that the semaphores at Springer, West Colmor, and two intermediates just west of Colmor were gone, but East Colmor and all the others remain. This set at West Levy is still guarding the main, as the sun sets on the day and on the signals themselves.
Less than 48 hours to my first COVID vaccination. It's perhaps a naive hope that everyone, irrespective of the economic status of the country or continent where they live, will be given opportunities to access one of the vaccines - after all no one is safe until everyone is safe.

While vacationing on the Mexican Riviera, my husband and I would walk to the beach every morning to watch the sun come up over the water. I became enamored of the color palette of the vivid turquoise water, white sand, and golden reflections on the surface of the sea. This is a series of long exposures in low light at sunrise, sometimes using intentional camera movement for a more abstract effect that I found quite soothing.
~ When I saw that wonderful sunflower abandoned there, worn out and damaged, I felt like as nature was giving up on living, trying to hide itself, afraid of what was happening outside that refuge, of what man is capable of doing in order to achieve his objective.. ~
A play on words for a new graphic I created from image pixels. It might have some creative uses for someone who's trying to make a point. ;-) Sort of looks like a stylus in a record groove 45 rpm. ;-)
