These clouds have made it a bit difficult to spot the comet, but the combo with twilight colors was totally worth it. Taken on 12.10.2024, in Athens, Greece.

A fairly large specimen of Eucalypts viminalis. Tree is one of of a pair isolated in the corner of an irrigation paddock on the Macquarie Road south of Cressy in the north of the state and appears to be water stressed.
The mountains in the background form the Great Western Tiers or should they be 'tears' as the landscape saw numerous atrocities committed by white settlers upon the First Nations Peoples of the island.
Fuji XT-1, Contax G Carl Zeiss Biogon 28mm f/2.8 "Frankenzeiss". 1/140th sec at f/8, ISO 200.
The Frankenzeiss comprises the optical block of the Contax Zeiss G lens transplanted into the body of a Minolta PF55 that has been modded to Leica M-mount. It works very well with the gen-1 X-Trans sensor.

This was large, including more than one city block and numerous buildings.

During the early morning on the 21st of Dec. 2024, several dozens of TLEs* were observed over thunderstorms at the Aegean Sea (northern as well as southeastern). This is a halo event (the faint red disk on top) with red sprites under it. One of the last events I managed to capture as the imminent sunrise was shedding light. The lights on the bottom left come from the islands of Andros, Tinos and Mykonos.
*TLEs (like red sprites) are upper atmospheric electrical discharges (cold plasma to be precise) and they appear, under specific circumstances, above thunderstorms (e.g. red sprites appear at altitudes of 40-90 km).
For this one, I've used a #Sigma 85 mm lens at f/1.4, for 1/25'' with 40 k iso.
Check our recent #paper about TLEs from Greek-based observers, here: doi.org/10.3390/environsciproc2023026009.

This was the night of crawlers and upward lightning. Here is an example of the first, covering the whole FOV and more. This was an MCS lasting more than 7 hours throughout the night. Lightning frequency up to more than 1 flash per second at times and lots of hail. Athens, Greece, night of 26.09.2023.

Excerpt from www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/montreal-heritage-buildin...:
The building in question is at 3725 St-Denis Street, between Cherrier and Roy streets, in the Plateau–Mont-Royal borough.
It was built at the end of the 19th century for the Soeurs de la Providence, a nuns' order founded in 1843 by Émilie Gamelin.
Built: c. 1885
Original purpose: Institut des Sourdes-Muettes, under the Soeurs de la Providence.
Area: 20,183.30 m2
City's property evaluation: $22,632,000
The building housed a centre for the deaf and mute for nearly 100 years.
The nuns established Montreal's Institut des Sourdes-Muettes there — an institution for the deaf and mute — which they ran until 1975.
The building was then sold to a Quebec government ministry in 1979. It most recently housed the CSSS — the administrative offices of the Quebec health care and social services agency — until its dissolution earlier this year.
Reorganized and merged under Health Minister Gaétan Barrette, the CSSS became the CIUSSS (Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux).
"There are interiors of the building that are very interesting to the public — the chapel, the dome," Bumbaru said.
I was meant to change my cover photo for a while now but I can't find time to do it. For the time being, this magnificent view will do :) This was taken last January on my way back from Fairbanks to Anchorage, one of many reasons I love the window seats.

As of today - 11/18/2021, I just think that I have no reason to change the cover. Love it there just is! :)

The last few moments of that magic minute before the sun pops over the horizon - taken on the banks of the Murray River in Mannum, South Australia a few years ago. I love having a trawl through the archives regularly to relive magic moments of past travels.
I have a question for any experts out there. Anyone with knowledge of lightning and atmospherics, and also anyone with working knowledge of camera sensors.
I took these two shots yesterday, more in hope than anything, Being lucky enough to have the Sony RX10 that shoots at 24 frames per second, I pointed at the sky across the street and held the shutter for a second. I got lucky and managed these two shots. Not very exciting looking, being daylight lightning shots, but I am intrigued by the difference in the two shots. They are consecutive frames 1/24th of a second apart. Bolt 1 shows up the brightest, and actually shows the lightning in its ground to air phase and the bolt is only half completed. Lightning bolt 2 shows the completed bolt all the way to the cloud, but is fading in brightness. The bolt itself was very close with barely a second elapsing between flash and the window rattling thunderclap!
My puzzle is the first shot that shows a purple halo around the upward end of the lightning, and a corresponding colour shift across the image in the sky below the top of the lightning.
I'd love to know is this just an issue with the sensor and its response to a sudden intense flash, or is it atmospheric?
My guess is the sensor, but I'd love to hear other opinions or experiences.
These two shots are both cropped heavily from the left half of the wide angle image, hence the slight distortion in the vertical lines of the house.
