Seen this summer in a parking and lucky for me I had my camera in the trunk. I think the lady in the minivan had the same reaction I did, What is this beauty doing sitting here???

The 26m dish at Hartebeesthoek Radio Astronomy Observatory.
When I took this photograph, the Radio Telescope was observing a MASER (an acronym for: Microwave Amplification by Stimulation Emission of Radiation).
Why do we use Radio Telescopes?
The human eye can only see about one ten trillionth of the Electromagnetic Magnetic Spectrum of light (between 400-700nm, with diminished sensitivity at both ends). Radio Telescopes can detect a much wider range of Electromagnetic Radiation including Radio waves, Microwaves, Terahertz waves, Infrared, Visible light, Ultraviolet, X-rays, and Gamma rays).
A big thank you to Heystek Grobler from HartRAO for showing me around.

Not had much opportunity of late to get my camera out as Christmas has taken over and children have been poorly. However when I spotted this frosty web outside my house this morning I couldn't resist the opportunity!

But why doesn’t God immediately take away evil from the face of this earth? Evil is too integral a part of humanity and nature for Him to do that. - God] cannot destroy evil without at the same time destroying humanity. - Ajith Fernando

The night is deafening when the silence is listening
And I'm down on my knees, and I know that something is missing.
Because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in
But I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them
I'm a bit of a manic when it's not as I plan it
Cause I start losing my head and then I get up in a panic
Remember when we were kids and always knew when to quit it
Are we denying a crisis or are we scared of admitting it?
I don't want to know
I just want to run to you
And break off the chains, and throw them away
I just want to be so much
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
Sooner than later, I'll need a savior, I'll need a saviour
It won't ever change if you want it to stay the same
I really hate it but I know it's hard to choose if you're chained
And when it's all you control cause you've got nothing else to hold
You're getting tighter and tighter, it's getting harder to let it go
I don't want to know
I just want to run to you
And break off the chains, and throw them away
I just want to be so much
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour
I'll need a saviour
Stand me up and maybe I won't be so small
Free my hands and feet and maybe I won't always fall...
save me
I just want to run to you
And break off the chains, and throw them away
I just want to be so much
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
I just want to run to you
and break off the chains and throw them away
I just want to be so much
and shake off the dust that turned me to rust
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour
I'll need a saviour

Words to the Picture
Sorry for the title, couldn’t think of a better one, but to be honest, when I look at this picture and see the telescope, I kinda think of a cyclop ..
I know .. this is not original at all .. been done a million times .. but I don’t have one of Barcelona .. so here I go ..

for those of you who don't like creepy-crawly bugs, here's a nice non-threatening butterfly. =)
I found this guy sitting on a screen door, probing the screen with his proboscis. Maybe he was perfectly happy and knew what he was doing... but frankly, i wanted to take his picture and didn't think a screen door would make the best of backgrounds. So I gently stuck my fingers under his feet, and picked him up, whereupon he began probing my fingers. I carried him over to a Tithonia bloom and set him down on it, and he instantly began feeding on the flower. Had to taste better than that screen door...
Gulf fritillary, btw.
