The Cygnus Loop (or the Veil Nebula) is the best-observed old supernova remnant. A beautiful filamentary object roughly in the form of a circular arc in Cygnus. Its patchiness is striking: the loop consists of a series of wisps rather than a continuous cloud of gas. The Cygnus Loop appears as a faint ring of glowing gases about three degrees across (six times the diameter of the full moon), located in the northern constellation Cygnus the Swan. The supernova remnant is within the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy and is 2,600 light-years away. As the supernova blast wave slams into tenuous clouds of interstellar gas, the resulting collision heats and compresses the gas, causing it to glow. The shock acts as a searchlight by revealing the structure of the interstellar medium.
The visual portion of the Cygnus Loop is known as the Veil Nebula, also called the Cirrus Nebula or the Filamentary Nebula. Several components have separate names and identifiers, including NGC 6960, the Western Veil, is the western part of the remnant, also known as the "Witch's Broom”. NGC 6992, NGC 6995, and IC 1340, three luminous areas make up the Eastern Veil, also known as the “Bat Nebula”. NGC 6974 and NGC 6979. These two objects are the two brighter knots of nebulosity in a cloud at the northern edge of the loop, and Pickering's Triangle, Also known as Pickering's Wedge, or Pickering's Triangular Wisp.
This my return visit after capturing NGC6992 when I started Astrophotography August 2020. Taken over 2 nights with not particularly good seeing or transparency, I managed to secure 6 hours of Ha and Oiii 5minute subs to process this HOO image. Gain 100 -5C.

"...Thunderbird 1 you are clear for launch, change to departure."
Sorry, no lens or camera combo could have made this any better. It's typically not even this clear. The Thunderbirds are about 2 to 3 miles away, and the city behind is probably about 8 miles further.
Contrast was adjusted to increase clarity.
The Citrus Loop, located in the Citrus County Tract of the Withlacoochee state forest is one of the most widely used portions of the Florida National Scenic Trail. It traverses a varied landscape and passes through a myriad of habitat over 43 miles of trails. The loop is one of the rare places containing dry caves in Florida. A highlight of the loop is considered to be Lizzie Hart Sink, where the sandy scrub habitat gives way to rocky, tropical foliage. These pictures were taken in a dry moment on a rainy day while hiking with the Florida Trail Association at their 50th Anniversary Celebration.
This one is a pretty good one I guess... I used the 100mm macro lens for this as it is a faster lens than the kit lens I have. I am limited in space though, so I have to stand in the corner to shoot. I am learning; it's a little overexposed on her forehead, but I have found that the pictures look hot in the preview on the camera but when I put the RAW file into Affinity Photo, I can compensate for it mostly, so in the future, I will experiment with f2.8 perhaps or something. I had one light plus a bounce light for this one. I developed in Affinity Photo.
Si alguien pensaba que no era posible…, los suizos lo hicieron!, un loop, para librar un gran desnivel, en un espacio muy corto. Este es el paraíso de los trenes, aquí encontraras de todo, trenes con encanto, sobre un trayecto que cruza los Alpes de norte a sur, imagínate el entorno!, viaductos y túneles impresionantes, lagos, trenes que conviven con los coches por el centro de la ciudad, y hasta un loop!. En verano de 2015, tuve la suerte de estar allí, hice el recorrido del Bernina Express, desde Chur en Suiza, hasta Tirano en Italia, y todas sus líneas transversales, Arosa, Disentis Muster, Davos, St. Moritz, Scuol Taraps, prácticamente todo. Si estáis buscando un sitio para ir el verano que viene, ya sabéis!.

Here we see 2 Stagecoach Enviro E200s, both on the 'Thanet Loop' .
Stagecoach 36878 (GN13 EYO) waits to pull out of Leopold Street, Ramsgate, as 36866 (GN13 EXZ) heads in the opposite direction.

The Mach Loop aka Machynlleth Loop. UK Low Level Flying by Military aircraft in central Wales. We climbed the hill on 2 separate days but where unlucky in not seeing any low flying aircraft. The aircraft pass below where this picture is shot. Although whilst in the car park we got buzzed twice by a low flying Airbus A400 transport aircraft. Simply awesome to see.

The Maze loop was recommended by a Ranger and while it didn't disappoint, I do have beef with the fact the trails in Joshua Tree are, compared to other parks I have been to, poorly labeled. Combined with a somewhat featureless landscape and it's amazing more people don't just wander off never to be seen again.

This was going to be a bridesmaid scarf, but I love it to much to let it go. It's AMAZING!!

Another one from the hols in Co. Clare – bright morning light, billowing shower clouds and a lighthouse – what more do you want?? I used the Canon EFS 17-55 lens at f11, 20 mm and ISO 200 for 1/500th of second from the top of the compound wall.
