A very poor-resolution old shot from a scene I once heavily HDR-ed. Now I tried a more subtle tonemapping, still from a 3-exposure HDR. It was hand-held and alignment / de-ghosting is less than perfect, but I did it for the look and feel, not pixel-peeking... Funny how our tastes change :)
THought i'd post this, despite the obvious symmetrical alignment issues - which is actually more to do with the architecture due to the angles of its structure. Love the subtle colouring due to this side being in the shade.
Well, this is not my best work. It was handheld, 05:38, in the morning, grabbed before the clouds rolled it.

Having spent yesterday walking the alignment of the new power feed for the Isle of Skye for work in the hills above Fort Augustus and Invergarry finally a perk of having a project up here. The journey home today via the extension on a sunny forecast that didn't come true but a shaft of light met No. 45407 with 'The Jacobite' at Polnish. Wasn't planning on going here but when it was the only place looking like having any sun it was beggars can't be choses territory!
Apparently 7 planets were supposed to be visible in a line today. I missed the best time to view and with light pollution and not having the right kit I couldn't get a photo of them.
Mal wieder in Berlin mit Gonzuuh unterwegs. Das tolle 14-24 ist eine Prachtlinse!!

The overnight passenger train from Narvik heads east at Søsterbekk Station off the realignment that bypassed the tunnel on the right and an older trestle on the far left corner of the photo. See the next photo for more info on the trestle.
The apparent alignment of layers of ochre and the Milky Way at the Ochre Cliffs north of Lyndhurst, South Australia. Lit by moonlight. Processed with a daylight white balance for star colours in Lightroom, Tamron lens.
The SS Badger sails into Ludington Michigan with the setting sun in the background. This juxaposition occurred because of the sun's position in early October and the fact that the Badger was 25 minutes late into port.
The Badger was built in 1953 and is the last large coal burning steamship in the US. The Badger shuttles both cars and passengers between Michigan and Wisconsin and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The 2013 season will end on October 13.
Most people probably don't know this but it's something I learned in college. If you get on the center railing of the steps to the Central Library and look south you will see that everthing from that center railing to the Chase Tower and everyting in between are perfectly aligned.
This 3 panel panoramic shows the current alignment of five planets and the moon, from the Dover Patrol Memorial at St. Margaret's Bay, on the White Cliffs of Dover. The lights of Calais (France) are visible on the horizon. Taken at 6.32am on the morning of 3rd February, with a Fuji XT-1 and Samyang 12mm at f/2.
This is a backyard panorama on a rare clear night in January 2025, with the first quarter Moon high in the sky to the east (left) of Venus, setting at far right, and dim Saturn above it. Bright Jupiter, at centre, is above Orion in Taurus. Reddish Mars, then nearly at its brightest and closest for the year, is to the left of Orion in Gemini.
This illustrates the array of planets visible at this time in early 2025. This month there was a lot of media hype about a "planet alignment" — well, here it is, with four of the naked eye planets above the horizon at once. Only Mercury is missing.
Plus Uranus and Neptune were in the sky as well, but too faint to see with the unaided eye, though the camera did pick up Uranus as a pale green dot. All the planets were in a line across the sky. That's not rare — they always are! The line is called the ecliptic (marked here in the labeled version) and is the plane of the orbits of the Earth and planets.
Mars was near opposition, placing it opposite the Sun, while Venus was near greatest elongation, placing it as far away from the Sun as it can get.
Note: The panorama projection stretches out and distorts star patterns along the top of the frame.
Technical:
This is a panorama of 11 segments, at 30º spacing, stitched in Adobe Camera Raw, with the ultra-wide Laowa 10mm lens at f/2.8 for 20 seconds each, untracked, and on the Nikon Z6III at ISO 800 in landscape orientation. Taken from home on January 6, 2025, as a test of this lens for panos.

Straight out of the memory card to your eyes cropped and that's it!

This took a bit of patience and time to get lined up, I know it's not perfectly lined up but it was getting pretty frustrating. First, framed up with the pylon with Tokina @ 11mm, change lenses, line up with the circuit board at 46mm without moving the camera and compare line up with pylon. Then, Click remote, expose circuit board, cap lens, change lens re-zoom and focus, while capped, blind. Uncap the lens, expose the pylon, cap the lens, pack up. Walk to the car a few blocks away, drive 1/4 mile, set up in a drainage tunnel blindly, uncap lens, trace figure, click remote, bing! Now a cwb and all is good.
After all of that, I noticed my exposed skin bottom right, after originally posting with finger in, I've decided to go with the crop, it's cleaner, any prints will be full sized.. naddafinga!
Of course I had to post the picture of the full eclipse tonight. It was spectacular. When the eclipse began, the moon was as white as always, but as the earth shaded the sun and the shadow fell upon the moon, that moon turned red. I learned that it is because the light from the sun bends around the edges of the earth like a sunrise, but around the entire perimeter of the earth and casts a red orange glow onto the moon. The coincidence of this alignment boggles my mind.
By correctly fitting this lens hood, as shown here... one can clearly see what a great job it's doing, in shielding the front element of the lens.
Corky did me a huge favour here by coming up in pretty much the dead centre of the pool, so everything sort of lines up. Her vertical spins are very impressive.

this was a pre-dawn shot from last weekend, I was trying for that "silky" water effect but an added bonus was catching the planetary alignment of Jupiter, Mercury & Venus still visible in the top left corner. Lucky thing, don't think I'll be around for the next one !
Early morning alignment of (l-to-r) Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter with the Moon. About an hour before sunrise 16 April 2020. Moncton, NB. A few minutes after the tidal bore. No one around. Over the past couple of days, the Moon has been sweeping the 3 planets from right to left. Looking south-ish over Riverview.
