Lacking a drone, the best way to get a shot like this is to stand atop a ruined 15th Century castle, as I did. Seen from Easkey Castle, Co. Sligo, Ireland.
By the way, 'angular momentum' has nothing whatsoever to do with this image, other than it sounded like a cool title.
Crossing Bristo Square at the University during the Fringe. I looked up for a moment from the frenzy of loud activity going on in the square and noticed this modern addition was catching the last of the evening light. with shadows growing.
I wanted a better angle, but the square below was packed with pop-up spots for the Fringe, so this was the only angle I could get that avoided getting those in the shot, as I just wanted the architecture and that evening light on the window patterns, in mono, so I had to zoom and angle and frame to get it.

🇬🇧 During our summer trip through Huesca we had a lot of storms. One of those nights I went to the church of San Pedro de Lárrede (Huesca – Spain). I thought it would blend well with the stormy sky creating a gloomy scene.

🇪🇸 Si algo tuvimos en nuestro viaje de verano por Huesca fueron tormentas. Una de esas noches fui a una vieja conocida: la iglesia de San Pedro de Lárrede (Huesca – España). Pensé que podría combinar bien con el cielo tormentoso y crear así una escena tétrica.

This is my grandfather's stopwatch.
Each clock hand has a different angular velocity.
The seconds hand, perform one revolution every 1 minute: FAST;
The minutes hand, perform one revolution every 60 minutes: MEDIUM;
The hours hand, perform one revolution every 720 minutes: SLOW.

In capturing this architectural detail, I wanted to strip away all distractions and focus purely on the power of geometric form. Working in black and white allowed me to emphasize the stark contrast between light and shadow, creating a nearly abstract composition from a concrete architectural element. The diagonal positioning was intentional - I wanted to create a sense of upward movement, as if the structure was reaching toward the darkened sky. I carefully positioned myself to capture the repetitive pattern of the architectural fins, using them as leading lines to draw the viewer's eye through the frame. The moody sky and careful processing help create a sense of drama and scale. My goal was to transform what might be seen as a simple architectural detail into a striking geometric study that blurs the line between documentary and fine art photography. The interplay of light across the repeated elements was crucial in bringing depth and dimensionality to what could otherwise have been a flat pattern. This image represents my ongoing exploration of how architectural photography can transcend simple documentation to become abstract art while still maintaining its connection to the built environment.

We are still in Huesca (Spain), but this time we move to Ordesa-Monte Perdido National Park to follow the route to Cola de Caballo waterfall. Here you can see Arazas river almost at the end of the route.

I found this odd-shaped little spider guarding her egg sac which is carefully wrapped in a leaf. Tmarus Genus (a type of crab spider). She looks similar to this Tmarus angulatus on bugguide: bugguide.net/node/view/261562/bgpage
Found in a field down the street in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Id corrections appreciated.
My #35 spider for this year.
Angular momentum is a fundamentally important concept in quantum mechanics, even more so than in classical mechanics. This photo is of a book on the subject.
For this ‘new month’ greeting, I chose the autumn-colored Question Mark Butterfly ... Happy October everyone!
(Behind on my comments again, hope to 'get there' soon :-)
About Eastern Comma & Question Mark Butterflies
Members of the brush-footed family, the Eastern Comma and Question Mark are also known as anglewings because of their angular wing shape. When their wings are closed they are camouflaged to look like dried leaves and remain well-hidden. Adults hibernate over winter, some staying in the north, many migrating to the south, making them long-lived for a butterfly; they top off at about eight months. Because their blood contains a sort of butterfly “anti-freeze,” glycerol, these butterflies can withstand very cold weather.
They get their name from a silver mark located on the underside of their hindwing. The Question Mark butterfly has a mark that looks like a question mark turned on its side, while the Eastern Comma has a sideways comma. Since I did not see the hindwings, I’m basing my ID on the number of spots on the front wings. When viewed from the top, the Eastern Comma Butterfly has three dark spots in a row on each of its front wings and the Question Mark butterfly has four, like this one.
When open, the edge of the Question Mark butterfly’s wings is outlined in a beautiful lavender color. The upperside hindwing of summer form which flies from May to September is mostly black with a short tail; that of winter form, adults which appear in late August from eggs laid by the summer form, has much orange and a longer, violet-tipped tail.
