This photo was taken within a minute of the last one posted, but was looking in the opposite direction. Baby Missiles by War on Drugs, is a great description for the short sharp showers that rained down.
It went something like this, if memory serves me right
the details derail themselves from reality
for I only recall such things upon waking
as if still entranced by deepest sleepbeats
sounded-out by the glint of morning breaking
dreams are often the energy mix for reality's song
routine the old discarded 7" now a hot auction piece
if only I could remember it's damned name
all would be well with the world, wouldn't it?
life could be lived better, and where I belong remains the same??
the compromise between a dream and it's wide-awakeness
exhilarates beyond consciousness
it's agreement disentangles the life we perceive,
exhumes ghosts of our forgotten worlds,
re-examines the realms of all we've come to believe
give us the Earth and you bring the fire
show us life and you will feel the pain of death
meet the people and you will encounter war
take my hand you will touch but a pulse of my world
for all this how much do we want it anymore
palliation is the now the sum of all human parts
for every time we look up, we must now hold our heads and beg
those that have it all grow decadent and stoop in their greed
nothing left to revere for they worship the god of inestimable dishonesty
these ill-gotten gains make the 'rains' that fail so many mouths to feed
click here to continue, if your mouse will, the cats curiosity may kill -
those inhibitions of yore, for going against the modern grain
there is so much unnatural pain in the World, can't you see!!
where medicines fail is a failing in human recognition
we as a species are becoming untreatable where truth can no longer be
how we desert nature's post, and shoot at dawn the hero who saves us
in our sleep we see, in our subconscious mind we know
the waking hour still has lingering belief,
but the wide-awake human is a devilish miser
one destined for nothing but a life of horror and grief
unless...unless...if time allows, if the Soul can still arouse
a permit for the senses, a visa for the faith of cultural embrace
a bureaucratic bonfire at which we warm torn hearts at the hands of administrative nightmares
the ashes of which will document recycled political ways of reforming our madness
for the lifetime of a heart affords a love of which there is no-one it spares
weapons never suited the people who possess them
forever lost in translation waving such arms like cash for honours
the greatest missile ever fired was the one spoken to betray our spirit
it's corrupting influence still scars the land with each footstep taken
it's now a standard pretext for the 'conversion' of successive rôles we inherit
now, if I remember clearly, my dream told me I could live differently
it went, something like this...if the future serves me right
that imagination is an attempt to offer such errors a way out
the deeper the dream the wider the imaginative escape path
for the dream is certain of one thing, that in reality our existence is in doubt.

Comet Neowise Flow Through Golden Gate Bridge
To link Comet Neowise with the most famous icon in San Francisco - Golden Gate Bridge is one of shooting plans I had since Comet Neowise became so popular among the photographers.
I used PlanIt app to make up at least 6 shooting plans around the bay area, and this is the most-wanted. However, this time of year, San Francisco has been always sunk in fogs, so I missed all chances to link it with GGB during sunrise time. Luckily I was able to capture it at the only clear night during the sunset time. This is one time shot with one exposure only.
Again, here is the tmelapse taken during the night, the only night was clear in Golden Gate Bridge area:
This is just one of two twin missile launchers which make up the Royal Navy's "HMS Manchester"'s armaments. See following pic and link for more info.

Sometimes it's easier to recycle parts of builds then to sort and build again. This is made from pieces of this www.flickr.com/photos/53458657@N04/16046012354/in/datepos... and this www.flickr.com/photos/53458657@N04/22816941765/in/datepos... plus a little spinkle of creativity.
Edit: (afterthoughts)... Warning ....mech head will explode with missiles when threatened and will literally fire its face off at you.
The nuclear capability of the Empire of Shiryoku is displayed here with its SS-NX-38 Ballistic Missile Submarine. A small model of the submarine displays best all the engineering details of the inside and outside design.

This particular model is a GEN Shiryoku specialty submarine, manned by approximately fifty elite nuclear warfare agents. The mission is to avoid war at all cost.
Made for Decisive Action 4!
BNSF 8260 blasts by the crossovers at Minneola on the Needles Subdivision, with high priority Intermodal heading east. Minneola on the BNSF is slighty different than the on the Union Pacific as the crossovers on the BNSF location, has more than triple the amount of trains going over the frogs and at a much higher rate of speed.
Ukraine needs missiles.
Russia is using missiles on Ukrainian cities. Last weekend, Odesa was hit with a missile attack that killed a 3 month old baby. Russia is trying to erase Ukraine from the world, and it is using missiles to do it. Russian missiles being used last weekend, which was Orthodox Easter, had the words "Christ is Risen" written on them. Ukraine needs to fight back. They need missile defense systems. They also need missiles to attack the Orcs invading their country. It was a Ukrainian missile that took down the Moskva.
This is a Nike missile at Sandy Hook National Recreation Area. Sandy Hook and the surrounding area in Monmouth County, New Jersey, was home to many of these missiles. They are obsolete and have all been decommissioned.
With the shift from the north to the east, the geography of the battle has changed. The tactics that worked brilliantly in the Battle of Kyiv won't work in the Battle of Donbas. Ukraine needs heavy weaponry; tanks, armored personnel carriers, missile defense systems, and missiles. Ukraine is starting to get some of what they need, but they need more. You can contact your representatives and ask them to support increased military aid to Ukraine. Also, the National Bank of Ukraine has set up a special account that you can send money to to support the Ukrainian Armed Forces. You can find that at bank.gov.ua/en/news/all/natsionalniy-bank-vidkriv-spetsra...
