#Smell
Has Mars rover Perseverance finally found proof that there is life on Mars? In recent audio transmissions there were strange munching sounds to be heard, frequently interrupted by "Mmmmmmmmm" sounds. And they seemed to come from Perseverance itself while it explored a new part of Candor Chasma. Or was it possible that Mars had its very own counterpart in Candyverse and that particular spot Perseverance was examining was a spot where both parallel universes interfered? And Perserverance had taken samples from Candor Chasma's Candyverse counterpart Caramel Chasma? The samples Perseverance would send to Earth later suggested the latter. Because the probe Perseverance had sent contained a jar full of vegan Dulce de leche. When the scientists at the NASA Mars 2020 mission headquarters opened the jar, the most delicious caramel smell filled the room. And the scientists decided to risk a self-experiment...
...which, as I can assure you, turned out all right. Just like my first attempt at cooking Dulce de leche at home ;) At first I thought about doing a caramel nest or another shape, then I thought caramel sauce would be nicer for the theme, because the delightful smell is strongest while the sauce is being cooked. But while I was looking for caramel sauce recipes, I also stumbled upon a few Dulce de leche recipes, and that's something I've wanted to make at home for ages. Since I couldn't decide which recipe I should use, I combined a few and started to improvise. And yes, that smell (and taste!)... yummylicious :) There are things that I like to taste, but not to smell – cheese, for instance. Of which I took a few shots today, because I wasn't sure about my Caramel Chasma image. But in the end I still preferred the image that illustrates the yummy smell.
What you see in the image are the remains of the Dulce de leche inside of the non-stick pot (strongly recommended for a sticky recipe like this) I've cooked it in. All that you see here is either the caramel cream or the pot itself. The image is another stacked one, made of 15 photos and combined in Helicon Focus (method A, radius 6, smoothing 4). Processed in DXO PhotoLab 4, Color Efex (Skylight filter, Color Contrast filter), and Luminar AI (Color Harmony). And, in case you are interested: ingredients used for the Dulce de leche were 200 g coconut sugar, 200 ml soy cream, one package (50 g) creamed coconut, ca. 70 g of vegan butter, bourbon vanilla extract and salt to taste.
HMM, Everyone, and I'll catch up with you a little later!

Let It Rain
I can't get up the nerve to call you
But I want to call so bad
To find out, who's holding on to
The most beautiful thing I ever had
Babe I guess I never really took the time
To show how much I care
Let it rain (rain)
Let it rain down on me
Hide these tears I'm crying
So no one can see
That I'm still not over you
But if you're over me
Let it rain (rain)
Let it rain down on me
We used to lay together like spoons
It was the only way I could sleep
And this pillow is a poor subsitute
For your body next to me
I reach to pull you closer
And remember you're not there
Let it rain (rain)
Let it rain down on me
Hide these tears I'm crying
So no one can see
That I'm still not over you
But if you're over me
Let it rain (rain)
Let it rain down on me
The rain is not so bad after all
It camouflages every tear that falls
It cleanses me of all the blame
I've put upon myself
I hear you're married now
Well I hope he treats you well
Oh let it rain
Let it rain (rain)
Let it rain down on me
Hide these tears I'm crying
So no one can see
That I'm still not over you
But if you're over me
Let it rain (rain)
Let it rain down on me
I can't get up the nerve to call you

The Halászbástya in Hungarian or Fisherman's Bastion is one of the best known monuments in Budapest, located in the Buda Castle, in the 1st district of Budapest. It is one of the most important tourist attractions due to the unique panorama of Budapest from the Neo-Romanesque lookout terraces. The Fishermen's Bastion's main façade, parallel to the Danube, is approximately 140 meters long, of which the southern aisle is about 40 meters long, the north is 65 meters long, and the ornate central parapet is 35 meters long. Its seven high-pitched stone towers symbolize the seven chieftains of the Hungarians who founded Hungary in 896.

The hill upon which Montalcino sits has probably been settled since Etruscan times. Its first mention in historical documents in 814 AD suggests there was a church here in the 9th century, most likely built by monks associated with the nearby Abbey of Sant'Antimo. The population grew suddenly in the middle of the tenth century, when people fleeing the nearby town of Roselle took up residence in the town.
The town takes its name from a variety of oak tree that once covered the terrain. The very high site of the town offers stunning views over the Asso, Ombrone and Arbia valleys of Tuscany, dotted with silvery olive orchards, vineyards, fields and villages. The lower slopes of the Montalcino hill itself are dominated by highly productive vines and olive orchards.

The museum was built between 1893 and 1896 and was designed by Ödön Lechner in the Hungarian Secession style. It has a green roof and the interior is designed using Hindu, Mogul, and Islamic designs. I used to live on the same street back in the 60’s where it is located, and frequently visited the museum.

We were fortunate to watch the beautiful display of 4th of July fireworks over the Hudson river, even though the views from our rooftop were partially obstructed by the waterfront buildings. It was my first time photographing fireworks using long exposure. I didn't have time to set the camera on a tripod; so I placed it on top of the HVAC unit and tried several shots. I truly enjoyed the long exposure images, which allowed for great flower-like patterns.
This photo was taken using ISO 125, f/10, 55mm with a 10 second exposure.
