The Milky Way and the Constellation Scorpius rise over an Undisclosed Location.
Elitist or Entitled? which am I? I’m not sure where I fall…Hum let me see what the dictionary says:
Entitled- Definition….believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.
"his pompous, entitled attitude"
Elitist- Definition……..demonstrating a superior attitude or behavior associated with an elite.
"some that say he is a spoiled, elitist snob"
Neither sounds like a camp that I’d want to be in.
The motives for withholding locations are far ranging from “save the location”, to “save the animals” to “save the unprepared from themselves” undisclosed locations…….secret places, are we elitists or are we entitled? Those that cherish the outdoors have seen the ramifications of location over saturation, and they “are” concerned. Of course, it’s because these are the most beautiful places on Earth and they would like to see that future generations can enjoy them as well. Doesn’t sound bad to me? The problem than lies within the human spirit, the spirit to set out and seek what’s out there, to see and feel and smell it with our own senses and take in the scene in all it’s natural glory. If your an inhabitant of this planet than it’s you’re right to see it, of course it is!! The real problem is the person that just purchased a camera and has never been outside the city in his or her life, do i want to give out a location that I shot in the backcountry of the Grand Tetons? If I want to eliminate them than Yes, they would be grizzly scat by morning. But If I’m concerned for their safety or the preservation of the location than NO. How am I to decide who gets a location or not, by deciding am I than elitist? Man and his devices have traveled into the far reaches of this galaxy and beyond and found no solid evidence of life, and the fact that we have been on this planet for just the blink of an eye makes me think that this planet is a gift more than it is a privilege.
IMHO, This planet belongs to every human being but it is a gift and not a privilege!!! does that makes me elitist or just concerned? If you have no outdoor experience than please prepare yourself to see it safely and responsibly. :-)

NGC 3521 is a spiral galaxy in the Leo constellation, around 26 million light years from earth.
I’ve already covered/imaged this galaxy a couple of times in the past. However, I think it’s such a gem that it won’t hurt to do it again. Additionally, equipment and my processing techniques have also improved, so I think it’s my best rendition of this target to date.
The thing that immediately stands and gives this galaxy its unique look (to an extent) is the dusty appearance surrounding it. These are likely the remnants of galactic interactions/encounters with satellite galaxies in NGC 3521's past.

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ A CONSTELLATION FIXATION.. ♥
An astrologers dream. The hectic arrangement of dorsal spots on this adult Jewelled (Strophurus elderi) Gecko are reminiscent of the glowing constellations within the dark reaches of the universe. This gorgeous dude was found active at the edge of a spiky hummock grass clump in the primo mallee country in the SW corner of NSW, recently.

You've seen this flower before, but it's been a while (please see the first comment). This sturdy little thing of (to me) unknown ID, blooming for a very long time despite being exposed to the cold late autumn temperatures on our balcony, had been my photographic "lockdown past time" along with the weekly MM assignments which helped a lot during one of the many lockdowns, and I can't believe that this is almost four years ago – time seemed to have stopped in those years.
I photographed this humble yellow beauty from all sides, at different times of the day/evening, and with different lenses throughout a couple of weeks. At one point, I had the idea to use the spray bottle to jazz it up a little bit with "nature's jewels". The yellow bokeh balls in the background are lights in the windows of a house right across the street, and they reminded me of a stellar constellation, hence the title.
This image has been waiting on my hard drive almost forever, fully processed and ready to upload, so I don't recall any of the processing steps. Judging from the looks, I'm sure that Analog Efex was involved, but that's it ;)
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone!
