There is never a shortage of beautiful flowering plants to photograph on the grounds of the temples of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This is a close-up of some of the summer flowers at the St. Louis Missouri Temple. The temple, every bit as beautiful as its flowers, is a prominent landmark in the city of Town and Country, a suburb of St. Louis, about 10 miles west of the city center, adjacent to Interstate 64, two miles west of the interchange of I-270.

Tonight the summit of Mauna Kea was cloaked in clouds, and none of the telescopes could observe. There were intermittent snow showers, and the road was closed to the public. After sitting around and doing nothing for most of the night, however, the clouds finally cleared, and we were able to open the telescope and observe for a couple hours. I walked over to the Submillimeter Array and set up a camera to shoot timelapse--this is one of the resulting still frames. A meteor conveniently graced the skies between the dishes.

The blue of the sea is never uniform, especially in the Caribbean Sea. Nice contrast with our orange solar arrays
Le bleu de la mer n’est jamais homogène, surtout aux Caraïbes, et il contraste joliment avec l’orange de nos panneaux solaires

The Duga 3 radar array in the abandoned Chernobyl zone. It is 150 m tall and wide as hell. It was designed to detect nuclear ballistic missiles and planes from the US.
I spent two days there. It was awesome. Abandoned for 31 years.

A 300º panorama of the evening sky on January 18, 2025, with the array of 4 naked eye planets across the sky, from R to L:
- Bright Venus in the southwest in Aquarius ...
- With much dimmer Saturn just below it (the two planets were nearly at the closest approach this night),
- Bright Jupiter, left of centre at top in Taurus near Aldebaran and above Orion
- Bright reddish Mars at left below Castor and Pollux in Gemini. Mars was just past its biennial opposition point this night so was nearly at its brightest.
During some of the segments, the Space Station photobombed the scene, rising out of the southwest and traveling right to left (west to east) creating the streak above Venus and Saturn.
At far left and due north are the stars of the Big Dipper. North is at far left, east is toward Mars, south is at centre, and west is at far right.
Technical:
This is a panorama of 9 segments, each 20 seconds at f/2.8 with the Viltrox 16mm lens on the Nikon Z6III at ISO 800 and in landscape orientation. No tracking was used here, so the stars are trailed. Stitched in PTGui.
It was a chilly -25° C this night with a brisk and cold wind.
Styrian Pumpkins (green with yellow stripes), Hokkaido Pumpkins (orange ones), the rest are ornamentals. expired uv id film 10-2009 shot 14/03/2022.
An interesting array of ages with the seven Bald Eagles I watched. This one was one of the most mottled. I will pull out the books to refresh myself on ages....I'd love an expert to chime in :)
Besides the usual array of neat motive power that could always be found at Shops yard in North Fond du Lac during the fabulous years of the Wisconsin Central.
There was sometimes other interesting equipment parked nearby, like this flashy bright orange hi-rail truck crane, complete with a small WC emblem, parked right next to the Roundhouse back on April 9th, 1988 ~~ A Jeff Hampton Photograph ©
Autumn produces an array of awe inspiring colour changes and the light loses the intensity of summer to take on an altogether more subtle quality as exemplified in this enriching scene at St Dominick in South East Cornwall last year. Here, the gold of the backlit trees was accentuated by the glow of the early afternoon sun as Mother Nature proudly showed off the beauty of the season to all who passed by....
It is the time of year when inspirational and uplifting sights such as this evoke glorious moments, yet these very moments are bittersweet, brought about by the knowledge that the leaves experience their magical changes as they prepare to die in a blaze of glory and that the branches are shedding them in preparation for the dark days of winter ahead.
As the year turns through its continuous cycle, the patterns, rhythms and moods of nature prove to be a continuing source of inspiration to me and, at the same time, evoke thoughts of the close relationship with mother earth, the seasons and the passage of time which was once held so dear by our ancestors. At times like this, it is hard not to think of how different their view and understanding of the life spirit of the land was from the mercenary, materialistic and often exploitative one that exists within the soullessness of the modern world.....
The ALMA Observatory is currently hosting its first art exhibit: a golf ball of enormous proportions that is on display alongside the antennas at an altitude of 5000 metres above sea level on the Chajnantor Plateau. This inflatable work of art is part of a travelling project named Mixed Game (Juego Mixto) by Dagmara Wyskiel, a Polish artist.
