"We will forsake our countries, we will leave our motherlands behind us and become one with this earth. We have
no nation, no philosophy, no ideology. We go where we're needed, fighting, not for government, but for ourselves.
We need no reason to fight. We fight because we are needed. We will be the deterrent for those with no other recourse. We are engineers without borders, our purpose defined by the era we live in.
We will sometimes have to sell ourselves and services. If the times demand it, we'll be revolutionaries, criminals, terrorists. And yes, we may all be headed straight to hell. But what better place for us than this? This is our only home. Our heaven and our hell. This is Outer Heaven." -- Big Boss

I've been wanting to take a reflection photo for a while and this spot was just right during sunset. There is no edit here.
SPT's subway network in Glasgow is closed from 02-31 July for essential maintenance and First Glasgow are providing the replacement bus service on a 5 minute service at peaks and 10 minutes service at all other times. Volvo B7TL/Wright Eclipse Gemini 32544 (SF54 OSE) is seen here on Great Western Road whilst operating the outer circle replacement bus service.
One of Scotland's finest beaches. On the island of Barra, in the Outer Hebrides.
Some scenes of the classic movie 'Whisky Galore' were filmed here.
Yet another MGSV post, but this MIGHT be the last one, as i accidentally broke the shrapnel off my Big Boss and lost it somewhere and, while i could make it again, i'm too lazy to re-do it for a future post. There's still another MGS1 post in the making, and after that some other videogame characters coming soon š

Dover Island, (Here in the background behind Flemming Island) is a popular bouldering site. I think someone must have been badly injured bouldering this weekend as a rescue helicopter was called out to this spot and about 20 small boats came to the sheltered side probably hoping to help evacuate the injured person. Climbing rocks without secure protections seems a bit crazy to me...
I finally had a clear night to test out the newest gear and camera. Since the Pinwheel Galaxy was high in the sky and moon had set, I decided to make my first attempt at capturing it. I'm humbled by the beautiful result.
Gear:
Sky-Watcher Evostar 72ED
0.8x reducer
357mm @f3.6
Sky-Watcher HEQ-5 Pro EQ mount
Camera: ZWO ASI533MC Pro
ZWO EAF Autofocuser
Control PC: Mele Quieter 2
āBinary system seen from a hypothetical planetā
Iām assuming the oblate body to be a red giant, with its companion about to start tearing away itās outer layers, possibly signified by the whitish & yellowish areas.
Fascinating, with possibly pertinent information with regard to the image:

No signature visible. The depiction of the planetās surface, along with that of the stars look like they should provide a clue as to who rendered this. Alas, they do not. Searching the image, to include re-orienting it, didnāt help. Further thwarting searching the image, the depiction of binary systems was/is(?) very popular in astronomy artworks, hence a plethora being returned. So, this might be in there somewhere, but visually, theyāre running togetherā¦so, at least for now, idk.
For stellar views such as this, and infinitely more, astronomical numbers at least, you must allot some time & treat yourself here.
Wow.
If you know anything - even passingly - WRT to astronomical art and the amazing artists who create such, you're likely to find someone you've heard of on the membership roster. Even if not, you will be amazed at the talent, the scope and vast variety of works available to peruse.
And as you'd expect, even their logo looks cool:

This ship started as table scraping (The treads as engines) plus that spoiler part. Then I saw the black windscreen an it's reverse, and the ship came together. It's a much different style than my normal Blacktron 2 MOCs, but in a good way, I feel.
Wedged between apartment complexes is this eccentric little house that refuses to obey the demands of the 21st century. Love it.
