Symmetrical hoodoos at Stud Horse Point under a starry sky near Page, Arizona. This is actually a blend of two images. The first (involving the hoodoos) was shot at twilight about 15-20 minutes after sunset using iso 100 to eliminate noise. The second (involving the sky) was shot about 45-60 minutes afterwards at iso 800 and 25 seconds to minimize star movement as I wanted a static star scene. Obviously, a tripod and some patience were required to realize the final image.
You can read more about this particular trip to the northern Arizona desert in this blog entry.

That was a glorious sunset and sky show on New Year’s Eve.
A beautiful conjunction of the two brightest celestial bodies after the sun - the slender crescent Moon and the planet Venus - was visible in the southwest sky at dusk and early evening on December 31, 2008.
Also the planets Jupiter and Mercury were sitting close to the horizon in the direction of sunset. Jupiter was fairly easy to see, as it’s the 4th brightest celestial body after the sun, moon and Venus to adorn the heavens.
Watching this celestial rendezvous was a wonderful way to end the year!

Siberian Outpost,Sequoia National Park, Ca.
This is another one from my backpacking trip in the Eastern Siearra in July. This is at camp in the Siberian Outpost. The moon was still too bright in the sky to shoot the milkyway so I decided to incorporate the moonset here. There was a lot of moisture in the air which accounts for the rather large glow around the moon.

Lego Spaceship MOC: The Celestial Empress is a large nuclear pulse propelled spaceship designed specifically to take a contained colony to Alpha Centauri. The Nuclear warhead propulsion system is based on the Project Orion concept and will take this half million Earth ton vessel to .99.99 of the speed of light. It take a little over a year to reach maxim velocity, it will turn cruise for a further 4.5 years before flipping over and using the same propulsion to decelerate for another year before reaching its destination of Alpha Centauri.
There is a transit system from the bow module to the cargo

In a quiet blanket of untouched snow, a small extraterrestrial traveler lies flat, arms and legs sweeping outward in playful motion. Its silvery skin glows faintly beneath winter light, huge curious eyes reflecting a sky unknown. Around its form, a perfect snow angel takes shape—delicate wings carved by simple joy. No spacecraft, no mission, just a moment of wonder. For a fleeting pause across galaxies, even an alien learns the peace of earthly innocence.

Eden Stone Crush
So…
I recently adopted two wonderful babies. They are called + Sempiternal Eden Stone Light and + Sempiternal Eden Stone Dark by % anxiety. They are insanely awesome.
I was in the % anxiety store, browsing for the next toy. And then I saw them. It was love at first sight. Sempiternal Eden Stone. For days I would find myself at the store when logging in. And I would go back to the demo again. Dilemma: The Light or the Dark? I bought the Dark. Rezzed it and immediately went to get the Light. Of course. I had to have them both. They are one and they are two.
This set is one of the most exquisite things I have seen in my whole ten years of Second Life. I just spent a few days playing in them, shooting, exploring, experimenting, trying to figure things out, discovering the lights, the symmetry that isn’t one, the sick geometry, the possible angles, the refined and intricate roof lines, the gothicity of the whole thing, the refinement of the beige and gold, the rawness of the reds and darks. They are mazes, labyrinths…
I am in awe, head over heels in love with these two marvels. I also find them exquisitely bipolar. Fear and peace. Light and Darkness. Oppression and Relief. So many more dualities than I can count. It’s vertiginous. The photo possibilities are endless. Behind each corner, beauty.
This just blew my mind.Thank you % anxiety guys. Seriously. I had a blast.

This glittering ball of stars is the globular cluster NGC 1898, which lies toward the center of the Large Magellanic Cloud — one of our closest cosmic neighbors. The Large Magellanic Cloud is a dwarf galaxy that hosts an extremely rich population of star clusters, making it an ideal laboratory for investigating star formation.
Discovered in November 1834 by British astronomer John Herschel, NGC 1898 has been scrutinized numerous times by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Today we know that globular clusters are some of the oldest known objects in the universe and that they are relics of the first epochs of galaxy formation. While we already have a pretty good picture on the globular clusters of the Milky Way — still with many unanswered questions — our studies on globular clusters in nearby dwarf galaxies just started. The observations of NGC 1898 will help to determine whether their properties are similar to the ones found in the Milky Way, or if they have different features, due to being in a different cosmic environment.
This image was taken by Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3).

Just the shell. One doesn't come across these very often. Usually found in the littoral zone near seaside observatories.

It is an interesting experience to see clouds from the other side. This is when we realize how huge they are and can generate lightening.

and she will give you the inspiration you seek
This my second Bokeh experiment... :)
For those who are wondering on the setup for the bokeh shots I take..Please be little more patient and i promise that you will come across the setup..
Coming to this shot.. Setup up the camera with my fav 55-200mm VR lens with on tripod.. used a longer shutter speed. Start at 55 and manually zoomed into 200mm while the shutter is open for this zoom effect....:)
No Photoshop Effects..Slight Color saturation increase and blacks clipping are done ..
No Annoying Graphic banners and Award Invitations Please..
Edit: Front Page Explore Again, Thats TWO in a row :)
