One day I went to take a drink of coffee from my travel mug and I saw the most beautiful condensation on the lid! I was absolutely mesmerized for far too long. Decided I needed more of that in my life and set out playing with my coffee mug lid for hours. And more than once too! It actually became an obsession in my chain of water related obsessions in photography. This particular shot was one of my faves and it was also the first item to sell in a gallery show I had. It was on a small acrylic and I was sooooo excited! I loved it so much I made a larger acrylic to keep...but we ended up gifting it to some friends. I might make another because it remains a fave! I love how each blob of condensation becomes its own little goody to look at. By the way, the background is an iridescent purse. :)
Triangulum Galaxy M33
The Triangulum Galaxy is the third largest of the local group of galaxies including ourselves, the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy and lies 2.73 million light years from Earth. This was taken over two nights in early January.

The Andromeda galaxy M31 and the Triangulum galaxy M33 are located almost equidistant but opposite directions from the star Beta Andromedae. Naturally these galaxies became targets on a December (2021) evening under clear Bortle 2-3 skies in Kaeng Krachan, Thailand
The Andromeda Galaxy also known as Messier 31, M31, or NGC 224 and originally the Andromeda Nebula, is a spiral galaxy approximately 2.5 million light-years from Earth, and the nearest major galaxy to the Milky Way. The galaxy's name stems from the area of Earth's sky in which it appears, the constellation of Andromeda.
The virial mass of the Andromeda Galaxy is of the same order of magnitude as that of the Milky Way, at a trillion solar masses.
The number of stars contained in the Andromeda Galaxy is estimated at one trillion, or roughly twice the number estimated for the Milky Way.
The Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies are expected to collide in around 4.5 billion years, merging to form a giant elliptical galaxy or a large lenticular galaxy. With an apparent magnitude of 3.4, the Andromeda Galaxy is among the brightest of the Messier Objects making it visible to the naked eye from Earth on moonless nights, even when viewed from areas with moderate light pollution.

The Sculptor Galaxy is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation Sculptor. The Sculptor Galaxy is a starburst galaxy, which means that it is currently undergoing a period of intense star formation.
M101 The Pinwheel Galaxy May 2025
The Pinwheel Galaxy (also known as Messier 101 or NGC 5457) is an asymmetrical, face-on spiral galaxy distanced 21.6 million light-years from Earth in Ursa Major. At 252,000 light-years across it is 70% larger than our own Milky Way galaxy, has a disk mass of over 100 billion solar masses and contains about a trillion stars.

In galaxy and nebulae
Mirrors the deep and lustrous
Kind of planet
Reflecting its alike twins
Already existing for trillion generations
The trillion light years beyond the universe and outer space
In galaxy and nebulae
Matters not a daytime or a night
The planets distributed the gravity without right or wrong
Flying stones, dusts and rocks drifting without gain or loss
Nebula alternating its light and dark in deep outburst
The instant birth and death of meteor’s collision
In galaxy and nebulae
Every moment is like this life
Setting forth the human in earth
The future is an unpredictable journey
Subsisting in a spacecraft with constant temperature
The heading direction beyond cold and hot
In galaxy and nebulae
Sperm and ovum combining the continuation of embryo
Youth withered in flight
Life a newborn in flight
Soaring further to a deep and gloomy milky way
The difference of love and hate gradually lost its remembrance
In galaxy and nebulae
The countless stars flashing high in universe
Dodging a farewell, separation is beyond the countless light years
Suddenly find one like the twin of earth
A new birth or a casting shadow?
The contradiction of lonesomeness and intimacy entangled in an encounter

The Andromeda galaxy, 2.5 million lightyears distant, the furthest object in the sky that can be seen with the naked eye. Contains more than 400 billion stars, the bright yellow core has most of the mass, consisting of the oldest yellow stars. The blue regions around the galaxy consist of younger hotter stars. The darker areas consist of dust and gas lanes tracing out the spiral arms of the galaxy. The galaxy is edge on with a slight tilt to our line of site, the warp in the galaxy stands out clearly, this is possibly due to gravitational interactions with the satellite galaxies, or nearby galaxies like M33 in Triangulum. Note the warp is in the outer regions of the galaxy, where the gravity is less strong. The two smaller satellite galaxies are gravitationally tied to Andromeda and interact with it.
Bortle class 6/7 skies.
Exposure time, 2hrs 42m 41s, 233 frames @ ISO 6400, 3200, 1600. Capture and processing time etc approx. 30hrs, several dozen subs were deleted due to slight tracking errors and light pollution, haze, fogging etc.
80mm F6 refractor
Fornax Lightrack mount unguided
Canon 760D, no filters were used.
Post processing in Lightroom and Canon DDP.
Subs collected over several nights in all conditions, ie dodging clouds and haze, moon present and only 3 clears nights with excellent seeing, but I could not dedicate all the time to M31, read on.
Due to the type of mount I use, I cannot track across the Zenith as my 500mm refractor hits against the Fornax drive, I would have to wait for 1 to 2 hours for the sky to move to the west allowing my scope to be set up on the other side of the mount. I would look at objects rising in the east until I could get back to M31 a while later.
just soap in a purple bucket, and here is your personal galaxy !

Now I have to return home to the LILU Galaxy 365 light-years away, so this is my last photo for a long long time (of this series naturally) 😊🌠
Nun muss ich nach Hause zurück zur 365 Lichtjahre entfernten LILU Galaxie. Es wird für lange Zeit mein letztes Bild sein (aus dieser Serie natürlich) 😊🌠

I will tell you what's missing.
Is it a trampoline in front, or a frisbee in the air? Or is it a ticket to Never Never Land, with non intended dread of being with someone who feels like a relative, but is not?
I will tell you what's missing.
It's a jump in the air that never comes back as a comet from Milky Way, but rather as hands holding and faces smiling, not as means of a travel trip conjunction, but rather a deep down love for THAT galaxy.
I will tell you what's missing.
Dreams.
