This small island stands just offshore near Grand Portage, MN. At this time of year, the rising sun shines through the "hollow". Monday's view included bonus sun dogs! (Humblebrag - for sun dogs to appear, the temperature has to be well below zero. Just sayin')
The requisite EVA selfie, my visor shows that I was hanging out above the truss, looking down on on the International Space Station and Earth moving into darkness. It was probably the most impressive experience I’ve ever had but it was not easy. I will never forget the robotic arm ride while holding equipment that is three times my weight. The slightest movement increased its inertia (thankfully Megan is the world champion robotic arm operator). Visually it was a bit like holding a fridge upside down, while holding on with my feet over a 300 km cliff face #humblebrag. Quite a few things didn’t go according to plan but I am immensely proud of the team that fought to find solutions. #dreamteam. Shane exudes professionalism at all times, the ground teams and control centre were on point, and then there were our incredible colleagues driving the robotic arm and getting us into the suits (and out again). I might still be on an adrenaline high, but I don’t think you can find a better team. We are going to try to get some rest and consider the follow-up operations.
L'incontournable autoportrait de sortie extravéhiculaire. Le reflet dans ma visière montre que j'étais suspendu suspendu au dessus de la structure, face à la Station spatiale internationale, avec la Terre en dessous dans l'ombre. C’était à la fois une expérience magique et un vrai combat ; je ne suis pas prêt d’oublier ce petit tour au bout du bras robotique en tenant un équipement qui fait 3 fois mon poids, le moindre mouvement lui faisant prendre de l’inertie. Heureusement que Megan est championne du monde de conduite de bras robotique ! Visuellement c’était un peu comme tenir un frigo, accroché par les pieds, la tête à l’envers sur une paroi abrupte de quelques kilomètres #humblebrag. Pas mal de choses ne se sont pas passées comme prévu mais je suis super fier de l’équipe qui s’est battue pour trouver des solutions #dreamteam. Shane 👨🚀 égal à lui-même de flegme et de professionnalisme, l’équipe 💻 au centre de contrôle au top, les collègues au bras robotique ou qui nous ont mis dans les scaphandres (et nous en ont sortis)... Je suis peut-être encore sous le coup de l’adrénaline, mais je pense qu’on ne peut pas trouver mieux (ou alors il va falloir me le prouver 😁). On va essayer de prendre un peu de repos en attendant la suite des opérations 😴

The view looking down… this arm looks thin but it’s capable!!! :)

Oleg a pris cette photo au moment où on sortait de la Station. C'est un instant très spécial, on a toujours le cœur qui s'emballe un peu !

I wish for.. the talent and skill to be able to take photos like this.... oh, wait :P #humblebrag
I read a great article recently, which resonated with me - the key quote for me was:
"Life isn’t a series of five-year plans, it’s a series of small moments. I’ve found that if I can enjoy the little things, if I can find something to enjoy every day, it makes tomorrow that much easier to face."
I wish for finding something I can enjoy every day, like the beautiful moments above, where I can look in the viewfinder of my camera and get that moment of joy when I realise I've got the capture I never thought I was capable of photographing.
A picture of my own shadow, as the arm was bringing me back to structure. It was probably the most impressive experience I’ve ever had but it was not easy. I will never forget the robotic arm ride while holding equipment that is three times my weight. The slightest movement increased its inertia (thankfully Megan is the world champion robotic arm operator).

A view of the Venta river waterfall in Kuldīga. This is the widest waterfall in Europe. But more interestingly, just a lovely park zone right in the town, up which their version salmon swim to spawn.

This is the reason I traveled thousands of miles to Greenland during arctic winter - to see the aurora borealis (northern lights). If I can humblebrag for a moment, this is probably a better photo than most tourists get, as even those with dSLRs were struggling to figure out how to shoot and have anything show up. By my standards though, this is pretty much a huge letdown. It's hugely disappointing as all I see are flaws, but I hope to improve my astrophotography skills so that the next opportunity I get will produce better results.
What many people might not realize is that the sun has an 11 year solar cycle, which influences the strength of the northern lights. You can Google the science if you're interested, but basically every 11 years the northern lights are at their strongest, and they generally remain strong for a couple years afterwards.
Wild hearts can't be broken—and neither can their spirits. On Sunday, October 16, the year's only full moon in courageous Aries will rock the skies. Along with being its fiery, badass self, this year's Aries full moon is ALSO a potent supermoon—meaning it's at its closest possible point to earth, causing it to appear up to 30 percent brighter.
The Aries full supermoon will also travel at a close degree to iconoclastic Uranus, making for one liberated weekend. This forthright cosmic energy will draw out our freedom of self-expression and our deepest, most fiery passions. Tip: Just go easy on the "my way or the highway" bluster. Power struggles can easily erupt under these explosive skies. Instead of fighting for world domination, divert your attention to your wildest dreams. Dive into a passion project, or debut the one you've been working on since the corresponding Aries new moon this past April 7.
"Know Thyself" is this full moon's commandment. Say "yes" to what you REALLY want and "no" to what you don't—clarity will be easy to come by as the weekend draws to a close. The Aries full moon/supermoon basically transforms the world into a talent show, putting our most cherished dreams on center stage. Got something fabulous to promote? Save the humblebrags and go big and bold.

...and was not disappointed. The Cosmopolitan offered an unreal view of the strip. Not often do I feel really happy about a "touristy" shot, but this will most definitely do. Is being annoyed by the sound of the water cannons of the Bellagio's fountain show considered a first world problem? #HumbleBrag
Had to ride across town for an urgent delivery today and found myself in a dimly lit elevator thinking, self, maybe you did turn into the William Gibson movie extra you wanted to be.

Day One is featured in all 4 showcases shown on the initial page load:
- Apps Starter Kit
- Better Together
A fair number of people cleared out before the final. I thought about trying for some artistic shots of the post-event liquor cage (pre-event, the line for cocktails was WAY longer than the line for beer) but didn't want to be in the way.
The walk back to Lot R was a little too isolated for my taste (I'd probably opt for the shuttle next time, especially if I were in heels, unless I was with someone -- neither the guy digging through trash cans nor the pack of bros I passed seemed dangerous, but if someone was up to no good, I wouldn't have liked my odds), but at the same time, breathtaking -- Nashville is BEAUTIFUL at night, and it was my first time seeing up close (as opposed to from a car) the neon glass elevator changing colors.
Also cool were the conversations with the fan I sat next to during the first half of the Lendl-Cash match. (I needed a break halfway through and then moved to a more comfortable seat in 224.) She was another former Chicago resident, had hit with Courier during a clinic, and seen Agassi at the Citi Open; also, she had a tablet with her and was regularly checking Indian Wells results. :-)
I know of at least two other tweeps who were there -- @bradhunter as a reporter for @TennisNewsTPN, and @blakeboldt with the Donelson YMCA Tennis Center. Blake, being a music journalist, missed the first part of McEnroe-Connors because he had to take a call from Singapore:
BB: Wish I would've seen you, but I was still distracted from interrupting my night to speak with Boy George.
PLD: I'm totally going to humblebrag about that to my other friends. ("Yeah, another pal was there, but he had this call...") ;-)
