Former power station site (I think) adjacent to the Twin Sails bridge. I've been wanting to take some photos around here for a while and today had a day off work and lovely weather.

Nearly 100 teams took part in the 2019 Human Exploration Rover Challenge, held April 12-13 at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama. The competition, hosted by NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, challenges high school and college teams to design, build and test human-powered roving vehicles inspired by the Apollo lunar missions and future exploration missions to the Moon, Mars and beyond. This year’s competition marked 25 years since the inaugural event.

On May 19th, 2005, NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit captured this stunning view as the Sun sank below the rim of Gusev crater on Mars. This Panoramic Camera (Pancam) mosaic was taken around 6:07 in the evening of the rover's 489th martian day, or sol. Spirit was commanded to stay awake briefly after sending that sol's data to the Mars Odyssey orbiter just before sunset. This small panorama of the western sky was obtained using Pancam's 750-nanometer, 530-nanometer, and 430-nanometer color filters. This filter combination allows false color images to be generated that are similar to what a human would see, but with the colors slightly exaggerated. In this image, the bluish glow in the sky above the Sun would be visible to us if we were there, but an artifact of the Pancam's infrared imaging capabilities is that with this filter combination the redness of the sky farther from the sunset is exaggerated compared to the daytime colors of the martian sky. Because Mars is farther from the Sun than the Earth is, the Sun appears only about two-thirds the size that it appears in a sunset seen from the Earth. The terrain in the foreground is the rock outcrop "Jibsheet,” a feature that Spirit has been investigating for several weeks (rover tracks are dimly visible leading up to "Jibsheet"). The floor of Gusev crater is visible in the distance, and the Sun is setting behind the wall of Gusev some 80 km (50 miles) in the distance.
(Staff Photos by Rob Mattson/Amherst College, Office of Communcations) Students, faculty, staff and members of the Amherst College community gather for selected presentations that highlight research, design, writing, music and creativity, during the third annual Amherst Explorations event at the Robert Frost Library on the Amherst College campus in Amherst, Mass., Friday afternoon, April 10, 2015. Students showcased their individual and collaborative projects in panel discussions, lightning talks, poster presentations, and performance.

After Sears shuttered, the mall found a temporary home as ArtSpace, a failed attempt at bringing in tenants to restore life to the once-popular mall.
Here shows my design exploration for my final outcome. I really like the idea of using the google color. However, the design doesn't fit well with the halloween theme. In addition, my first idea was a clown face google doodle that is why I use the google colour.
For this image I wanted to explore the concentration idea of textures found within nature. This is a close up of moving water. If I continued with this idea I would want to take really close up shots.
This folder is from an old hotel in my town (built in 1912) that was recently demolished. I was able to wiggle my way inside through one door, a window, and a small hole between some cinder-blocks you see pictured. I had earlier lamented that the beautiful old building would be torn down, but when I finally got inside I realized why. Except for a few rooms in the front, the building is entirely gutted from rot. The remaining wood is so black it looks like there had been a fire (however, upon research I learned that there was no fire, it was just pure rot). Most of the back roof was collapsed and the 3rd floor was in the basement. I myself accidentally visited the basement when part of the first floor gave way. I'm still sad to see the building go, but I now fully understand why it was impossible salvage.

Exploration Days, canoeing & Kayaking
June 19-21 at MSU, nearly 2,500 youth and chaperones from every MI county come stay on campus for 4-H Exploration Days-- a pre-college program to meet new people and experience the life of a Spartan.
