Today's News (Dec 5, 2025) "Frank O. Gehry, Titan of Architecture, Is Dead at 96"

Early morning on the way to work, saw Moon and Venus. Had to pull over for a sec to take a quick photo no telephoto lens but a point and shoot camera! :)

DUBLIN CITY LIGHTS DEC 2020

I had never paid much attention to the common Mynah until I saw this handsome bird in Sydney, Australia

Happy National Day to all of Emirates ppl and to everyone that loves this country ♥

DUBLIN CITY LIGHTS DEC 2020

UK Somerset - Uphill, Weston-super-Mare. Man throwing and dogs chasing a ball.

The boys looking over the city they call home for the last time in 2008.

As the gap between the planets decreases, I switch to equipment with a smaller field of view. William Optics 103mm with QHY 5III 290 C, frames stacked and processed with Registax. Moon with same equipment added for scale.

Not all good times

View of Wellington from Mount Victoria. After a mostly rainy day, we still did not have the best clarity and it was getting late in the day, but views were spectacular nonetheless.

All these are photos are shots of essentially the same urban landscape. Virtual Reality folks will probably love a scene like this!

Dunedin, New Zealand. This lighthouse on a hill is accessible by land only if you hike up the hill. We didn't have the time for it, so I could only shoot from a distance. Here are a couple of shots from land and a couple from our cruise ship. At the base of the hill is an albatross colony that's tough to get close to.

Last day of the year what a beauty

Akaroa is a region that is a little like a mini Florida sticking out into the ocean on the east coast of New Zealand, just south of Christchurch. However, Akaroa is a mountainous region with a few sparse roads and it is mostly uninhabited. It is great for a drive and for hiking, though. The views of the sprawling mountains and various bays formed at the interface between the mountains and the ocean, are really spectacular.

New Zealand

At one of several stops we made for views and photos while driving from Queenstown to Glenorchy, New Zealand.

Leica 28mm Summilux-M

UK Cornwall - Truro. New Year's Eve, time to reflect.

Quintessentially New Zealand, although I've seen some photos from the English country side that also look like this!

Dunedin, New Zealand

F.S.A.
