This image is 2-panel mosaic of NGC 3372 (Eta Carinae nebula), one of the brightest and largest DSOs in the night sky.
The image is the result of a 2-panel mosaic in SHO. Aiming at a 9-panel mosaic to cover the entire nebula...hoping my computer's graphics card can handle it 😅. A total of 14hr integration time so far.

Was curious to see what a vertical crop at CP-CAPITOL would look like, and I realized I had a later frame of 98 that would work for that purpose. I'm partial to horizonal photos, but in terms of highlighting the important elements of this shot I think this does well. For those who opt to shoot here, the chainlink fence is tricky to deal with as you need to open the aperature wide and just shoot through it. Redundant shot, yes, but good luck ever seeing a P42 here again! The normal route for 98 involves a left turn up the Washington Terminal just behind the rear of the consist.

I like anything that is like an obstruction, something that I have to act through is good. -- Peter Sarsgaard
En tant que l'une des minorités les plus ciblées en Occident, les musulmans sont régulièrement confrontés à la menace de harcèlement, de vandalisme et de représentations négatives dans les médias grand public. À son tour, cette discrimination affecte négativement les nombreuses cultures et ethnies associées à la religion. De nombreuses personnes se sentent en danger en dehors des limites de leurs propres communautés culturelles, ce qui ne fait qu'aggraver la ségrégation dans notre société occidentale.
Pour le photographe Marwan Bassiouni, se concentrer sur nos similitudes est la porte d'entrée pour embrasser nos différences. En tant qu'homme musulman égypto-américain-suisse, il a vécu et pratiqué sa religion partout dans le monde, faisant l'expérience de sa perception dans diverses cultures. Pour son projet New Dutch Views, Bassiouni positionne l'expérience islamique comme synonyme du mode de vie hollandais – un rejet de la distinction pour faire place à une intégration transparente.
As one of the most targeted minorities in the West, Muslims regularly face the threat of harassment, vandalism and negative portrayals in mainstream media. In turn, this discrimination negatively affects the many cultures and ethnicities associated with religion. Many people feel unsafe outside the boundaries of their own cultural communities, which only worsens the segregation in our Western society.
For photographer Marwan Bassiouni, focusing on our similarities is the gateway to embracing our differences. As an Egyptian-American-Swiss Muslim man, he has lived and practiced his religion all over the world, experiencing its perception in various cultures. For his New Dutch Views project, Bassiouni positions the Islamic experience as synonymous with the Dutch way of life – a rejection of distinction to make way for seamless integration.

It is in deepest regret and sadness that I inform you of Roney's cold-blooded murder on the early morning hours of January 16th. May he find peace wherever his journey has taken him.......
We need your Change more than ever now, to bring about justice so that Roney's death will not have been in vain.
While the broken clay pipe used to protect the shoreline along this section of Lake Ontario makes somewhat unsure footing to walk on I loved the contrast it created.

A Gerrit / Amon statement
Amon is not a character and not a fantasy.
He is a name I gave to a part of my mind.
For some people with AuDHD (autism combined with ADHD), thinking does not move in straight lines. It accelerates, branches, associates, creates. That intensity can be a source of insight and creativity — but under long-term stress or trauma, it can also become overwhelming.
In such systems, something interesting can happen.
Not a role.
Not an invention.
But a structure.
A way for the mind to organize itself when pressure becomes too high.
A representative that holds focus, strength, distance, and coherence when the core self is overloaded.
Not consciously created, and not something that can be forced or imitated.
This is self-preservation, not mythology.
I live as Gerrit in the real world.
Amon became visible in Second Life — a space where identity is flexible and expression is safe. Not as an escape from reality, but as a container: a way to carry aspects of myself that could not remain unstructured any longer.
This work is called Integration because it is not about splitting or dissociation.
It is about alignment.
The human and the symbolic are not in conflict here.
The technological is interface, not control.
Power is present, restrained, and owned.
This is not an alter ego meant to replace the person.
It is a support structure that emerged when adaptation was no longer enough.
Similar mechanisms have appeared publicly before — not as pathology, but as function. One well-known example is David Bowie, whose Ziggy Stardust persona was not deception, but a way to protect and channel creativity under pressure. Not to make this “true,” but to show that this phenomenon exists.
If this concept feels unfamiliar or uncomfortable, that is fine.
This is not a belief system and not a claim.
But for those who recognize it, no further explanation is needed.
This is not fantasy.
It is not something to aspire to.
It is what can happen when a mind adapts in order to survive.
Integration means nothing is hidden — and nothing is pretending.
Fenway Park is a baseball stadium located in Boston, Massachusetts, less than one mile from Kenmore Square. Since 1912, it has been the ballpark of Major League Baseball's (MLB) Boston Red Sox. While the stadium was built in 1912, it was substantially rebuilt in 1934, and underwent major renovations and modifications in the 21st century. It is the oldest active ballpark in MLB. Because of its age and constrained location in Boston's dense Fenway–Kenmore neighborhood, the park has many quirky features, including "The Triangle", Pesky's Pole, and the Green Monster in left field. It is the fifth-smallest among MLB ballparks by seating capacity, second-smallest by total capacity, and one of nine that cannot accommodate at least 40,000 spectators.
Fenway has hosted the World Series 11 times, with the Red Sox winning six of them and the Boston Braves winning one. Besides baseball games, it has also been the site of many other sporting and cultural events including professional football games for the Boston Redskins, Boston Yanks, and the Boston Patriots; concerts; soccer and hockey games (such as the 2010 NHL Winter Classic); and political and religious campaigns.
On March 7, 2012 (Fenway's centennial year), the park was added to the National Register of Historic Places. It is a landmark at the end of the Boston Irish heritage trail. Former pitcher Bill Lee has called Fenway Park "a shrine". It is a pending Boston Landmark, which will regulate any further changes to the park. The ballpark is considered to be one of the most well-known sports venues in the world and a symbol of Boston.
In 1911, while the Red Sox were still playing on Huntington Avenue Grounds, owner John I. Taylor purchased the land bordered by Brookline Avenue, Jersey Street, Van Ness Street and Lansdowne Street and developed it into a larger baseball stadium known as Fenway Park. Taylor claimed the name Fenway Park came from its location in the Fenway neighborhood of Boston, which was partially created late in the nineteenth century by filling in marshland or "fens", to create the Back Bay Fens urban park. However, given that Taylor's family also owned the Fenway Realty Company, the promotional value of the naming at the time has been cited as well.
Like many classic ballparks, Fenway Park was constructed on an asymmetrical block, with consequent asymmetry in its field dimensions. The park was designed by architect James E. McLaughlin, and the General Contractor was the Charles Logue Building Company.
The first game was played April 20, 1912, with mayor John F. Fitzgerald throwing out the first pitch and Boston defeating the New York Highlanders, 7–6 in 11 innings. Newspaper coverage of the opening was overshadowed by continuing coverage of the Titanic sinking five days earlier.
In June 1919, a rally supporting Irish Independence turned out nearly 50,000 supporters to see the President of the Irish Republic, Éamon de Valera, and was allegedly the largest crowd ever in the ballpark.
The park's address was originally 24 Jersey Street. In 1977, the section of Jersey Street nearest the park was renamed Yawkey Way in honor of longtime Red Sox owner Tom Yawkey, and the park's address was 4 Yawkey Way until 2018, when the street's name was reverted to Jersey Street in light of current Red Sox ownership distancing itself from Mr. Yawkey due to his history of racism (the Red Sox were the last team in Major League Baseball to integrate). The address is now 4 Jersey Street.

This nebula is rightly named the Dark Shark nebula. This was my third try at capturing this one, with the first two not worth completing the processing. The nebula is both a dark and reflection nebula in the constellation Cepheus approximately 650 light-years away. The shark spans approximately 15 light-years head-to-tail.
