"Don't be afraid, land; rejoice and be glad, for the Lord has done great things.
Don't be afraid, wild animals, for the wilderness pastures have turned green, the trees bear their fruit, and the fig tree and grapevine yield their riches." Joel 2

picture was taken just off lizard lane near whitburn not many poppys on show and it was a bit misty. 9.34 pm
Cultivated field of lettuce growing in rows along the contour line in sunset at Kent, Washington State, USA. Agricultural composition. Panoramic style
Shot at Phytobotanica, Inglenook Farm near St Helens.
I decided to have my lunchbreak here, as it was a very warm day, nice lunch it was.
To get this shot, I used my 24-70 and decided to go for a narrow depth of field, f2.8 as the background sky was a little lacking, so I thought about a slightly more abstract composition for this

On this shot one can see the black dots on the bottom side of the bracts, that are nectar glands to attract ants. The plant needs them to distribute its seeds.
have i ever told you guys, that i'm afraid balloons?
so this was the last day of the vacation. from tomorrow i go to an other school. and i am afraid.
oh and i have a problem with my 365. i'll finish it to early. somewhere has to be a mistake :|
Several very old refrigerators in a field at my grandparents house. They once held cattle meds; now they are full of scary gigantic syringes and huge mad scientist-esque medicine bottles.
This image: For more than a century, astronomers have categorized galaxies near and far, both by comparing their shapes by eye and precisely measuring their properties with data known as spectra. For example, Edwin Hubble created the Hubble Tuning Fork in 1926 to begin to sort the shapes and sizes of nearby galaxies, showing that many are spirals and ellipticals.
As telescopes’ instruments have become increasingly more sensitive, it is easier to more accurately classify their shapes. New data from the James Webb Space Telescope have added nuances to astronomers’ classifications. Since Webb observes in infrared light, many more extremely distant galaxies appear in its images. Plus, the images are finely detailed, allowing researchers to identify if there are additional areas of star formation – or confirm they aren’t present.
A team led by Viraj Pandya, a NASA Hubble Fellow at Columbia University in New York, recently analyzed hundreds of distant galaxies in Webb’s Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) Survey. CEERS intentionally covers much of the same area as the Hubble Space Telescope’s Extended Groth Strip, which was one of the five fields used to create the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS). This allowed them to double-check Webb’s results where the telescopes’ observations overlap.
“Our analysis of Webb’s galaxies was very consistent with galaxies in the Hubble Space Telescope catalog,” Pandya confirmed. “Two sets of data allowed us to fully vet our models as we ran our analysis, and better understand and categorize galaxies that only Webb detected.” The team began their analysis by sorting the galaxies into broad classes based on similar characteristics. (They did not classify each galaxy’s individual appearance since that would require detailed information from data known as spectra.)
They found an array of odd shapes when the universe was 600 million to 6 billion years old. The galaxy shapes that dominate look flat and elongated, like pool noodles or surfboards. These two galaxy types make up approximately 50 to 80% of all the distant galaxies they studied – a surprise, since these shapes are rare closer to home.
Other galaxies Webb detected appear round but also flattened, like frisbees. The least populated category is made up of galaxies that are shaped like spheres or volleyballs.
Webb’s data also resolved a riddle that was introduced by the Hubble Space Telescope’s observations decades ago. Why do so many distant galaxies appear like long lines? Was there more to the galaxies that didn’t appear in its images? Webb answered this in short order: Hubble hasn’t missed anything.
“Webb confirmed what Hubble has long shown us, but in greater detail in infrared light,” Pandya said. “Their combined observations show that in the early universe, many more galaxies appear flat and elongated. This has profound implications, since we usually assume that galaxies like our own Milky Way started out as disks, but that may not be the case.”
Why do galaxies have such different shapes early in the history of the universe? This question remains unanswered for now, but research is underway to better understand how galaxies evolved over all of cosmic time.

Image description: In the far-left column are two galaxies that have been magnified. The top left galaxy appears circular and light pink with a slightly whiter central region, taking up less than one-sixth of the box. The bottom galaxy is elongated, stretching almost from top left to bottom right. It has a white line at the center that has a pink outline that transitions into bluish edges at far left and right. Thin lines from each magnified galaxy point to their appearances in the broader field. The top galaxy appears as a tiny dot at the upper center, and the bottom galaxy toward the left. Thousands of galaxies appear across most of this view, which is set against the black background of space. There are many overlapping objects at various distances. They include large, blue foreground stars, with Webb’s signature eight-pointed diffraction spikes, and white and pink spiral and elliptical galaxies. Numerous tiny red dots appear throughout the scene. This is a portion of a vast survey known as CEERS.

Back to work, unfortunately stuck in the tea room this weekend. The wind picked up as I was leaving and immediately inspired me for a photo. Had to wait until after dinner before I could go out. As soon as I'd finished I grabbed my camera and tripod and half ran to the fields not far away from my house.
I originally wanted to take photos standing in the middle of the path, then decided to jump around instead. I was on the way to getting a shot I liked, ready to expand it, when I saw some teenage boys walking my way. Quickly grabbed my tripod and moved out of the way, screwing up my position to expand. Wandered a little further up and slightly off the path into one of the corn fields. In retrospect the backdrop wasn't as good as I'd thought but the light was fading so I shot quickly without realising. I like what I'm going for in this photo, but I wish I'd chosen a better backdrop.
