This is the main building. It's as deep front to back as it is across this frontage. The Restaurant and campsite are across the road. PS I added the cracks to make it look more authentic.

Knights Point Outlook. Back in the 50's, the area was surveyed by Norman McGeorge and the Point was named after his dog Knight.
One of four knights (you can see part of a second knight) - a component of a much larger work at the Grounds for Sculpture.
Name: 'Space, Conquer or Die - Swiatowid'
Artist: Andrzej Pitynski
www.groundsforsculpture.org/artwork/space-conquer-or-die-...
'Space, Conquer or Die - Swiatowid' was made by monumentalist sculptor Andrew Pitynski. He has created monuments sited all over the world, including in the United States, Poland, Italy, and South Africa. His work also includes monumental portraits, bronze compositions, reliefs and medals. This monumental composition was cast in bronze in Thailand and installed at Grounds For Sculpture in April 2014.
The sculpture weighs 7 tons and stands 36.5 feet high by 16 feet wide on a gray granite base.

I have over 100 folders of unprocessed photos from the past 5 years which I’m currently going through, this is one of those. Note – many of these re-visit an already posted subject.
during a photo session at beach those two showed up and gave us a nice show , so we took advantage of it ;)
"The Golden Knights are made up of several expert teams and skilled professionals who all play a critical role in the US Army’s success. This includes parachute teams, aircraft pilots, and even those behind-the-scenes handling jump logistics. Whether jumping out of planes going 120 miles per hour from 12,500 feet or landing with expert precision, they embrace the thrill of adventure and feel proud while doing it."
I snapped this photo shortly after this freefall parachuting tandem team jumped out directly under the midday sun. With a 1000mm focal length and atmospheric haze, sharpness was not to be, but to my delight, I captured part of the sundog and its rainbow.
Needless to say, their skills were amazing!
May each one of us take inspiration this Memorial Day from the patriotism of the brave soldiers who died for our country!

"Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death has not come, and when death has come, we are not." - Epicurus
Body armor, also known as body armour, personal armor or armour, or a suit or coat of armor, is protective clothing designed to absorb or deflect physical attacks. Historically used to protect military personnel, today it is also used by various types of police (riot police in particular), private security guards or bodyguards, and occasionally ordinary civilians. Today there are two main types: regular non-plated body armor for moderate to substantial protection, and hard-plate reinforced body armor for maximum protection, such as used by combat soldiers.
Plate armour is a historical type of personal body armour made from bronze, iron, or steel plates, culminating in the iconic suit of armour entirely encasing the wearer. Full plate steel armour developed in Europe during the Late Middle Ages, especially in the context of the Hundred Years' War, from the coat of plates worn over mail suits during the 14th century.
In Europe, plate armour reached its peak in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The full suit of armour, also referred to as a panoply, is thus a feature of the very end of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance period. Its popular association with the "medieval knight” is due to the specialised jousting armour which developed in the 16th century.
Full suits of Gothic plate armour were worn on the battlefields of the Burgundian and Italian Wars. The most heavily armoured troops of the period were heavy cavalry, such as the gendarmes and early cuirassiers, but the infantry troops of the Swiss mercenaries and the Landsknechts also took to wearing lighter suits of "three quarters" munition armour, leaving the lower legs unprotected.

This was a fun one. I am starting to understand night sky photography takes practice and forethought. Just showing up to a strange location at 3am thinking you’re going to nail an amazing keeper is not really reality. I'm still learning, making mistakes on this Milky Way stuff, was happy to pull this one off.
This is twenty-three (10 second) exposures stacked in Sequator.
