goku in DRAGON BALL XENOVERSE 2_2017 After seeing Goku's struggle to become this "First" transformation (Super Saiyan) I became a fan of the series during the early 00s.
"Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun, and I say It's all right
Little darling
It's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling
It feels like years since it's been here
Little darling
The smiles returning to the faces
Little darling
It seems like years since it's been here "
George Harrison

The shot was taken during full moon which allowed a nice lighting of the landscape even though it washed out some of the stars. The post processing of the 15 images (4min exposure each, 18mm @ f4 ISO400) was done in lightroom and starstax. There are some gaps in the trails, which are because of planes passing by so I stopped for a short period - unfortunately I wasn't able to fix that with starstax alone.
Turbines at Mynydd Maendy, Near Bridgend, South Wales. Some people come up here to see the view. As far as I'm concerned, the turbines are the view. I love being near them.
Terri and Chris at the Pacific Ocean - this is as far as we go...
Just the two of them, as Iz (Israel Kamakawiwo'ole) would say - "facing future" with hope and faith... This was the literal and symbolic end of a journey the two of them made together to mark the end of one phase of their lives, and the beginning of another, happier one.

Nemateleotris magnifica, the Fire Goby, Fire Fish, Fire Dartfish, or Red Fire Goby is a species of dartfish native to the Indian and Pacific oceans from the eastern coast of Africa to the Hawaiian Islands and from the Austral Islands north to the Ryukyu Islands. It is an inhabitant of reefs where it can be found at depths of from 6 to 70 metres (20 to 230 ft). It is usually found just above the bottom, facing into the current, where it awaits its prey of small invertebrates.
They usually have a bright yellow head, merging into a white body, gradually shading into a red-orange tail. Their dorsal fins are very long, and the fish flicks it back and forth. This is used as a signal to conspecifics. As a full grown adult, it reaches a maximum length of 9 centimeters (3 in). Adults occupy sandy burrows alone or in pairs, while the juveniles live in small groups. These fish are monogamous. They will retreat to burrows if threatened.
