2023 Weekly Alphabet Challenge 29/52 ~ Celestial
A difficult challenge to achieve whilst on holiday. Fortunately just as I was leaving Tatton Park Flower Show this plane, taking off from Manchester airport, flew low and directly over us making a more interesting shot than just the sky.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
The Celestial Radio boat came to Margate, I swam in the harbour waiting for the break in the clouds to take this.
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.
Actually, the cloud looked more heart-shaped than it does here! Okay, so I added the arrowhead, but it was too tempting to resist! 😁

La Catedral de la Ciudad de Salta, en el Norte argentino, es un templo que fue destruido por un terremoto y se volvió a construir en el año 1858. Arquitectónicamente la fachada tiene un italiano clàsico y posee dos campanarios. En el interior de la Catedral se destaca el altar mayor, de estilo barroco. Alberga al Señor y a la Virgen del Milagro. También alberga el Panteón del Norte, donde descansan los restos del general Martín Miguel de Güemes, de papel destacado en la Independencia.
An old homestead somewhere in rural Idaho. The building was illuminated with a single Luxli Fiddle. The light on the horizon is Boise. This image is a composite of 15 consecutive images stacked in Starry Lanscape Stacker software.

"Celestial Mooring"
Nestled between Sierra Nevada foothills, my shadow watches a community of houseboats mooring under the celestial belt of the galaxy. With camera and tripod set up at the edge of the dock, I stood and marveled at the view before me. After noticing clear evidence of drought, the vast reduction of water levels along the far end of the lake. It was somehow comforting to see the houseboats berthed as a sign of resilience against the drought stricken waterway. i decided they would make great subjects in my image
This is a 18 image wide field panoramic scene spanning 180 degrees with the beautiful spring milky way arching above Moccasin point marina on Lake Don Pedro. This hidden gem along the sierra foothills can be found along the Northern Yosemite Highway California Highway 120 in Tuolumne County. I apparently captured a bit of faint aurora seen on the right of the image just above the horizon along with a strong presence of green airglow reflecting in the waters below and along the horizon. Pretty cool when the elements of nature, the universe and geomagnetic forces share the stage in such a beautiful symphony of light.
Please enjoy :-)

A Lady's Mantle leaf after the rain.
Genus name is from the Arabic name for the plant, alkemelych. The water droplets gathering in the leaves were known by the ancients as "celestial water" and used in alchemy, hence intimately related to this study. The common name is likely from the ancient legend of it being used to adorn the Virgin Mary. Native to Turkey and the Carpathian Mountains. Functionally this plant has been used medicinally since Antiquity for stomach ailments, and to dye wool green.

After camping in two days of rain. The cloud let up and provided a nice clear night sky. Who knew that two hours east of the city could provide views of the milky way with very little light pollution? This was taken last weekend with a Nikon D5100, cheap Manfrotto tripod and a $15 wired remote from eBay.

There is some question about this photo being in Explore. I did not know about it when my friend, Jim Cummins, sent me the link. I have a Snipping Tool copy of the page when it was displayed in Explore, but much later I was not able to find it again and it does not show up on Scout (BigHugeLabs.com/scout) as being one of my photos in Explore. I have the proof. Maybe they changed their mind... : )) It previously showed as Explore #442 on Dec 27, 2012
Ivanna steps into the light as a modern archangel, blending divine grace with unapologetic confidence. This look captures a moment suspended between heaven and temptation, where glowing aqua wings unfurl like living energy against the darkness. Their luminous hue casts an ethereal halo, framing her figure and turning the silence around her into something almost sacred.
Dressed in delicate lace adorned with star details, Ivanna balances softness and strength with ease. The styling feels intentional and intimate, as though this archangel exists on her own terms—powerful, sensual, and entirely in control. A simple glass held casually in hand adds an unexpected touch of indulgence, reminding us that even celestial beings are allowed pleasure.
The pose is bold and commanding, drawing the eye upward from grounded confidence to divine presence. This is not an angel of quiet obedience, but one of choice, desire, and self-awareness. Ivanna’s expression tells a story of knowing exactly who she is and embracing every facet of it.
This look is a celebration of duality: light and shadow, purity and temptation, elegance and strength. Ivanna proves that divinity doesn’t have to be distant—it can be daring, glamorous, and irresistibly human.

Fairelands Lore:
The beautiful Lunafae Blessing Stone featured in the photos was created by Fairelands Worldbuilder Sharni Azalee for her gorgeous region in the 2018 Fairelands. I do love this creation and have had it out on my parcel since 2018.
The lovely animated wings are also a Poet Heart creation…from the PH “Insecta” fatpack from the 2020 Fairelands. I show the wings only from that fatpack (which includes a dress, hat, leggings) in “Dragonfly.”

I'm back early from my week long trip to Skye, the bulk of the weather reports said it was to get worse, and it wasn't great to begin with.
This was taken a wee while before I went to bed - the clear sky was a huge surprise to me so I made the most of it.
I shot a couple at really high ISO, and then dropped down to ISO 400 for this one, to get less noise over the 8 minute (ish) exposure. It came out really clean with the minimum of messing around, which makes me even happier with it.
If I only came away from my trip with this photo I'd be quite happy. Got one or two more in the works though.
