The Milky Way cloud appears in detail over Morro dos Cabritos, a 900-meter-high mountain in the Vale dos Frades region, in Teresópolis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This is a rural area categorized as class 3 on the Bortle scale.
The Bortle scale is a numerical rating system that assesses the darkness and visibility of the night sky. It consists of nine levels, ranging from Class 1 (the darkest skies) to Class 9 (severe light pollution). Each class on the scale describes specific characteristics and features of the sky.
In Bortle Class 3, the sky conditions exhibit relatively limited light pollution. Here are some notable features of a Bortle 3 sky:
Moderate Light Pollution: Bortle 3 skies experience some degree of light pollution, typically from nearby towns or cities. While not as severe as in more populated areas, the presence of artificial lighting affects the overall darkness and visibility of the sky.
Milky Way Visibility: In Bortle 3 skies, the Milky Way, our galaxy, is visible as a prominent band stretching across the sky. While it may not be as vivid and detailed as in darker sky conditions, the core of the Milky Way and its brighter sections can still be observed.
Good Star Clarity: Bortle 3 skies offer reasonably clear views of individual stars. While some fainter stars may be less visible due to light pollution, the overall brilliance and clarity of the stellar display remain impressive. Constellations and their brighter stars are easily identifiable.
Observable Nebulae and Galaxies: Deep-sky objects, such as nebulae and galaxies, can be observed in Bortle 3 skies. While the presence of light pollution may affect the visibility of fainter objects, brighter and more prominent nebulae and galaxies should still be visible. The details and structures of these celestial objects can be appreciated with the right equipment.
Zodiacal Light: Bortle 3 skies allow for occasional sightings of the zodiacal light. This faint glow appears as a pyramid-shaped illumination along the ecliptic and is caused by sunlight reflecting off interplanetary dust particles. In darker areas of the Bortle 3 zone, the zodiacal light may be more visible.
Meteor Shower Observations: Bortle 3 skies are suitable for observing meteor showers. While some light pollution may affect the visibility of faint meteors, brighter meteors and fireballs should still be visible. Clear nights during meteor showers can offer memorable viewing experiences.
Overall, Bortle 3 skies provide a relatively darker and clearer viewing environment compared to higher Bortle classes. Although some light pollution is present, stargazers and astronomers can still enjoy a range of celestial objects and phenomena, including the Milky Way, individual stars, nebulae, galaxies, zodiacal light, and meteor showers.

This is funny how the petals of this flower don't grow the same as each other. Nature is sometimes full of surprises. Have a nice friday!
Freightliner 86613/86614 come over Cattawade bridge with the Felixstowe to Trafford Park liner. A big tide today and a bit of Winter Sun made for a good day.
Another try... One of my friend also tried with his Canon. The result was better. Maybe the stabilization is better with Canon :) or maybe I'm shaking to much :D

This is why one day I may leave Pentax.... I can't shot in High Sensibility... 800 was my maximum value... I hope one day they will improve the noise management on their cameras :)
I sill find this shot artistic so I shared it with you :)

Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC)
This is the world’s first all-electronic, digital computer. On February 4, 1946, the ENIAC launched the world into the modern computer age. The ENIAC weighed 30 tons and had 18,000 vacuum tubes! What normally took 12 hours to calculate by hand, could be done in 30 seconds with the ENIAC. This is but a small portion of the largest surviving chunk of ENIAC, the granddaddy of all computers. It is on display at the U.S. Army Field Artillery Museum, Fort Sill, Oklahoma.
The State of the UK's Birds 2020 has just been published and there are some worrying statistics. It says that the species hit by the largest numerical decline (as opposed to percentage) is House Sparrow. The populations sounds very healthy at 5.3 million pairs but since 1966 the population has dropped by 10.7 million pairs. To put that another way, when I was growing up there were 16 million pairs of House Sparrows in the UK, now there are only 5.3 million.
The report estimates the total population of native breeding birds in the UK is 83 million pairs, which is 19 million fewer than in the late 1960s. But some species have increased over that period, including the wren which is up by 6.5 million pairs to a current population of 11 million pairs making it the UK's commonest breeding bird.

I spent Christmas in London and numerically, the commonest bird I saw was Ring-necked Parakeet. I could hear their calls almost constantly, and flocks were flying over every few minutes, and sometimes these flocks numbered hundreds of birds. I remember back in 1983 when Ring-necked Parakeets were added to the British List and became "tickable" because they had a self-sustaining breeding population. Birders used to pass on information about good sites to stand a chance of seeing one, but they were never guaranteed. The BTO website shows that in 1995 the population was still quite small, but in the past 30 years the population has increased about 35 fold and there are now >12000 breeding pairs. Here's the parakeet population trend: data.bto.org/trends_explorer/?species=Ring-necked+Parakeet
I wasn't intending to upload this bridge camera photo taken in Bushy Park until my Flickr contact Phil Lucas suggested in a comment yesterday that there might be a link between the decline of Green Woodpeckers and the increase of Ring-necked Parakeets. Green Woodpeckers have declined severely in the last 15 years, in line with my own observations but I hadn't realised quite how bad it was: data.bto.org/trends_explorer/?species=Green+Woodpecker
Phil suggested competition for nest holes, presumably with parakeets turfing out the Woodpeckers from their recently-excavated nest holes. He went on to say that he had heard that Great Spotted Woodpecker holes might be too small for Parakeets. But this Parakeet climbed out from what looked like a small crack in this old oak tree. I was really surprised when the Parakeet suddenly appeared and emerged from a space that looked too small for it. The deepest part of the crack looked narrower than the diameter of a Great Spotted Woodpecker hole. Of course there may be other reasons, such as a more spirited defence of their nest holes by the smaller woodpecker. I should add that all three breeding woodpecker species in Britain excavate a fresh nesting cavity each year, sometimes in the same tree. So there should be lots of old holes available for the Parakeets. I should also say that although parakeets may be a factor in the decline of Green Woodpecker, the problem must run deeper, as they have declined similarly in areas without parakeets, such as my part of the Pennines.

Faire du candide à 55mm c'est pas évident. Je suis quand même assez proche des sujets qui peuvent ne pas accepter que je les prenne en photo. J'aime beaucoup la texture des briques de ce bâtiment.
This is a nice little afternoon to discuss on the edge of a window... The building was very nice. I like the way the bottom seems to be in B&W ;D

(013/365) I just noticed my stats, considering I have slight numerical OCD I can't believe I'd forgotten to look at them for the past couple of days so I'm not quite sure when I passed 6 million views. Can I take this opportunity to thank everyone who takes the time to comment & favourite my photos, I really do value your input & support.
Uploaded for my 2018 : one photo each day group. Still time for new members to join as long as you have all your January photos taken so far.
Seems like seven isn’t so lucky number as he expected.
Built for Bio-Cup 2022 Round 2.
Theme: Numerically
Sub-theme: Seven
This build was inspired by the famous European folklore element called ‘seven-league boots’. The concept of my character being postman also has its own historical context, because back in the day postman boots were called ‘seven-league boots’ as well.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven-league_boots
The roots of the chosen style get to such cartoon characters as DIC Ent.’s Inspector Gadget, Looney Toones’ Road Runner and Disney’s Goofy. A very diverse crew, but they really worked well as inspiration fuel for some particular elements of this MOC.
