Located at a distance of about 3,600 light years, the Blinking Planetary consists of a central star (magnitude 10.4) and surrounding nebulosity from when the central star went nova. It is called "blinking" because to the visual observer, the nebula appears to blink as the eye moves from focusing directly at the bright central star to looking more peripherally, when the nebulosity is more easily seen.

 

Distinctive to this particularly planetary nebula are two "fliers", to the side, that appear to be shock waves from ejecta of more recent explosion, probably within the last 1,000 years or so.

 

While bright, this is a difficult object to image because of the subtle contrasts within the nebulosity and its small size (total diamter is only 27 arc-secs). The size of this image is approximately 20.7 arc-min wide by 13.8 arc-min tall. The nebula is about 100 arc-sec in diameter.

 

Object: NGC 6826 (Blinking Planetary Nebula)

Date: September 28, 2013

Location: Rancho Santa Fe Observatory

Optics: Celestron C9.25" with f/6.3 focal reducer

Guiding: B&L 4" SCT piggybacked with PhD software

Camera: Nikon D5100 at Prime Focus

Exposure: 437 6-sec exposures at ISO640*

Stacking: DeepSky Stacker with flats and darks

Processing: PixInsight for Background Neutralization and PhotoShop CS6

* In order to avoid saturation of the central star and nebulosity the high number of shorter exposures provides superior raw data to longer exposures.

the lights! the blinkings!

Blinking locked with the keyholders all on holiday according to the neighbours. "What did he want", I heard the mans wife say as I despondently walked away.

Put off straight away I was! Had a wander round the graveyard as you have to when a church is locked. Never saw much to interest me,but as I always say to myself in this frustrating situation, I'm sure the locals love it (if they are allowed in)! Decided that I still had time to do a couple more so put Capel St Mary in the satnav and off I went driving past the Case Is Altered, which is also the name of my Dads pub in Ipswich.

The Gateshead Millennium Bridge is a pedestrian and cyclist tilt bridge spanning the River Tyne

 

The award-winning structure was conceived and designed by architects Wilkinson Eyre and structural engineers Gifford. It was built by Volker Stevin in 2000.

 

The bridge is sometimes referred to as the Blinking Eye Bridge due to its shape and its tilting method.

 

This tilting arrangement allows ships up to 82ft in height to pass under. The bridge takes as little as 4.5 minutes to rotate through the full 40° from closed to open, depending on wind speed!

I caught the EOT blinking red on the northbound Norfolk Southern steel train near Linden, Indiana, on the CSX Monon Subdivision. The train will get back on home rails at Lafayette Junction.

Ok.. a blinking red light...

 

Now, does that mean "the toilet is locked" or "please press something else to enable the toilet locking feature"

 

Unfortionately for me it was the later...

This is a "nictitating membrane", a second transparent eyelid that some birds use to blink. It moves side to side instead of top to bottom.

There's approximately a petabyte of hard drives in this rack. This is just a small portion of them, contentedly blinking along as they capture and share their data.

Goslar city lights at night. blinking light at a construction site, dentist advertisement, neon lights, cafes.

 

My highlight is blinking light - how cool is that?

 

The abstraction is beautiful and there is so much to see. Each squibble tells a story.

 

See the right one in the second row? That is a beautiful jellyfish flowting the sea, searching for mermaids to play with.

 

Or the right one in the bottom row? Thats a monsters lolling tongue, he is tired chasing his tail under your bed.

Was telling a friend about the blinking eyes, so I figured I could show them.:) and you obviously.

 

Sorry for the poor quality of the video

A literal take on the first PComp assignment, making an LED blink. I cut out two eye shapes from black and translucent acrylic. The eyes have two settings, open and closed. The eyes close when a switch is thrown, they also close when the light is too bring.
