A power line, possibly 41.6 kV, runs eastward toward the glowing horizon near Taylorville, IL. While 1950s lines like these were built tough, and this one could probably last many more decades, it is in the process of being rebuilt. Too bad all these older porcelain insulators will no longer grace the sky, but at least they will likely all be preserved.

One of these evenings, while waiting for the comet to appear, there was a tiny green flash behind the hills. This specific kind of green flash is a combo of 3 factors: The main factor which is the usual refraction of visible light through the atmosphere, here with the "help" of light passing over the edge of the hill which obscures the red/orange part of the solar disk and the attenuation of blue/violet light in the Earth's atmosphere (thus leaving the green to appear over the red that is gone behind the edge). Taken on 12.10.2024, in Athens, Greece.

Nine minutes before sunset. Tropical moisture from the Desert Southwest makes its annual trek over the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Tuolumne County, California. The last thing we need is lightning! Major rain and any snow won't return to this dry climate until November or so.
It was a beautiful but fateful day on April 7, 2022.
I was finally recovering from my broken tibia, when my kneecap snapped in two. Ow! One step forward...
A sunrise image dedicated to our Flickr friend Graham Little who has just sadly passed away.
Graham was very generous with his often humurous comments and support. It was always a great pleasure to share in his own travels with his wife Ingrid as he took us all to many parts of the world, including places most of us will never see, like Antarctica. Through his artistic talents with fractals, he took us to far off worlds with his wonderful imagination and story telling. He shared his local world too with wonderful wildflower shots from the west and he gave us some beautiful sunsets from 90 mile beach where he loved to travel to.
You will be sadly missed Graham.
The Big Dipper was just coming into view when I took this 48 minutes after sunset. There were light clouds and smoke from distant wildfires to hinder comet watching, but it appeared faintly before I went inside.
Panorama just before sunset, with an unusual mid-spring, cool and wet system dipping into central California.
An early morning shot taken on Mount Wellington near Hobart in Tasmania.
This shot was originally taken sometime between 2006 and 2009 in Hobart, Tasmania.
Original colour slide was taken with a 3D World medium format stereo film camera, 80mm lens, using Fuji Provia 100 colour slide film. Scanned with a Canon R10 with RF24-240mm lens and Nisi close up attachment.

That's Mount Hood in the background. This storm moved very quickly from the north, then started heading west towards me just moments after taking these photos.
I had to race my bike home as the storm was at my back the whole time. I took SE Halsey Street west to the I-205 path south.
Troutdale to Happy Valley, by bicycle, is about 16 miles!
The passing stormclouds on the horizon were fillled with light every time the lightning flashed, adding to the peach coloured afterglow from the sunset. The solar powered lamps on the bird-watchinig jetty were shining brightly as were the stars overhead. It all added up to a wonderful light-show!
To the naked eye, all was mostly dark, but the 30 second exposure brought out the light and colours (along with some slight star trails).
3 separate squall lines over the SE Aegean sea, were producing TLEs all night long, during the night of Dec. 4, 2021. This one is from that night. Observe the inclination of the tendrils towards the top of the thundercloud. This inclination is dictated by the temporary, intensified electric field close to the cloud. TLEs appear, under specific circumstances, above active thunderstorms. On this night, more than 300 events were recorded. Surely one of the nights to remember. I've used a Sigma 85 mm lens at f/1.4, for 1/25'' with 51.2k iso. More about the Greek Team chasing red sprites and TLEs in general: antisimvatikos.blogspot.com/2019/05/tles-greek-archive-of...

The day started with snow low in the foothills of Tuolumne County, California. Very dark clouds in the afternoon. Clearing skies just before sunset.
The Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts is 1,600-seat, 151,000-square-foot (14,000 m2) concert hall located in Carmel, Indiana.
After years of planning, The Palladium, one of three venues that comprises the Center for the Performing Arts, opened on January 29, 2011 and today serves as a venue for various musical concerts and performances. It is located at 1 Center Green, adjacent to the Carmel City Center. The four-fronted, symmetrical design of The Palladium, massed around the domed central space of the single room concert hall was inspired by Andrea Palladio’s Villa Capra, La Rotonda (1566). The Palladium is based upon the traditional shoebox-shaped concert hall with high ceilings and massive, sound-reflecting walls. The facility also features a limestone façade and movable acoustical panels that can significantly alter the acoustics of the hall.
The Palladium was designed by David M. Schwarz Architects of Washington, D.C. with local consultation by CSO Architects as Architect of Record. Indianapolis-based Shiel Sexton Co. Inc. served as construction manager.
The Palladium is home to the Great American Songbook Foundation. The organization's administrative headquarters are located on the Gallery level.
The other two venues that comprise the Center are the 500 seat Tarkington Theatre and the Studio Theatre – a black box with flexible seating.
Steven Libman was the founding President and CEO of The Center for the Performing Arts from 2009 to 2011. While there, he successfully planned and launched the first few seasons and produced two major opening night festival galas with: Michael Feinstein, Chris Botti, Neil Sedaka, Dionne Warwick, David Hyde Pierce and dancers from American Ballet Theatre. He also produced a PBS special with Michael Feinstein seen by 11 million viewers. The special titled "Michael Feinstein: The Sinatra Project" was nominated for Outstanding Music Direction at the 64th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards.
In 2012, Tania Castroverde Moskalenko was hired to lead the organization. She was previously the CEO at the Germantown Performing Arts Center in Germantown, TN. Under her leadership, the Center continued to expand the breadth and diversity of programming offered in its three venues and attained increased funding from individual and corporate sources. In March 2015, the Center announced a significant four-year sponsorship agreement with Carmel-based Allied Solutions.
In August 2016 Moskalenko resigned from her position and Board Chair, Jeffrey C. McDermott (Partner, of the law firm Krieg DeVault) assumed the role of Interim President and CEO. In August 2017 McDermott was officially elected by the Center Board as the new full time President/CEO. McDermott will also remain Senior Counsel to Krieg DeVault.

Temperatures and conditions are yo-yo-ing around the ballpark. We had several days 10-20 degrees above normal and now a run 10-15 degrees below normal. While these clouds looked pretty serious, no rain came.
Nov 2018 comment: I'm confused,,, does a "22 degree halo" occur only when the sun is 22 degrees above the horizon? This was mid-day in June, so the surface temp must have been hot, yet these are caused by ice crystals. Anyone??
