My first attempt at a projector photoshoot. I have some more of these, I quite like how they came out. Feedback is always great :)

Celebrate the Autumnal Equinox
It has been a wonderful summer, but nights are becoming longer, the weather is cooling, and soon the leaves will be turning brilliant colors and birds will fly south on their annual migrations. The autumnal equinox is upon us. On this first day of fall, night and day are of equal length and the Sun crosses the celestial equator (an imaginary projection of Earths equator into the sky) on its apparent journey into the Southern Hemisphere. From now on, days are shorter than nights in the Northern Hemisphere.
This year's autumnal equinox occurs on September 22 at 2:19 p.m., Pacific Daylight Time, 22 September, 21.18 in the Northern hemisphere, when the Sun enters the zodiacal sign of Libra, the Balance (an appropriate symbol of balanced day and night).
Happy Celebrations!
there was bareley a breeze on Derwent water yesterday.............
i love the way this image looks like one of those your shrink asks you to tell you what it reminds you of.......
it looked like an ink blot to me in the thumb...........
our weekend trip went tits up but we managed a day at Keswick yesterday............
dont ask about the trip its too long a story and you dont need to hear it lol....

The limestone craggs named the Celestial Twins stand at the head of Wolfscote Dale at its junction with Beresford Dale in the Peak Park in Derbyshire.
The area lies between the villages of Hartington and Alstonefield, and forms part of the sytem of valleys and dales that provide the route for the River Dove.
I wasn't fully satisfied with the previous version and wanted to bring up the exposure on the foreground and middle ground. This conveys more of my original vision.
Mark and Megan have been working a lot on NASA's Celestial immunity experiment, including weekends. This is one of the reasons I like making timelapses, it compresses hours of work into a short video (also once the camera is set up we can let it be it and do said work). Together with solid support from mission control and scientists on ground, Mark and Megan have been working in the Life Sciences Glovebox in the Japanese Kibo laboratory to run this experiment. They are taking immune cells from elderly people and adults and seeing how they react to being on the International Space Station. This could offer clues to the whole ageing process in general and continues on ground-breaking research in space that is helping us understand the human body in detail. Like much human research in space it capitalises on the fact that cells seem to age faster offering a handy way for researchers to observe changes but sped up. Mark is doing the experiment in the Glovebox so the cells are contained, we do many biological or chemical experiments in gloveboxes for extra safety. youtu.be/vNS_sEfgvdI
Mark et Megan travaillent beaucoup sur l’expérience Celestial immunity dernièrement, y compris les weekends. Les timelapses ont l’avantage de compresser le temps et de montrer l’essentiel des activités en une courte vidéo (et puis je peux installer la caméra et la laisser tourner pendant que je vaque à mes occupations 🆗). Avec le soutien du centre d’opérations et des scientifiques, Megan et Mark utilisent la Life Sciences Glovebox (littéralement « la boîte à gants pour les sciences du vivant) qui se trouve dans le laboratoire :flag japon: Kibo. Grâce à cette boîte, les échantillons restent bien confiner, sans risque d’être abimés. Ils étudient des cellules immunitaires de personnes âgées et d’adultes pour voir comment elles réagissent dans la Station spatiale. L’objectif ? Étudier le vieillissement et plus généralement améliorer la compréhension du corps humain. Comme la plupart des études sur la physiologie humaine, on se sert du fait que les cellules vieillissent plus vite dans l’espace. C’est pratique, on peut observer les changements plus rapidement, comme en accélérer… un peu comme un timelapse dans la vie réelle :) youtu.be/vNS_sEfgvdI

I was a little disappointed that I didn't get the full moon set during this timelapse, but it worked out alright in the end, with this interesting composition where the path of the moon almost meets up with the path of the lens flare it created.
I can't help but wonder if the lens flare would have grown a little bigger, as the moon shrunk smaller (as it gets closer to the horizon it gets dimmer, making it look like it shrinks if it's overexposed to begin with) and they would match up, looking kind of like a super bright meteor. (they often have colour changes near the beginning and end of the time that they emit light while burning up in the atmosphere)
