We see it as a large round red ball only because we are much closer to the Sun than to any of the other stars.
The sun is a big ball of gas and plasma. Most of the gas — 91 percent — is hydrogen. It is converted into energy in the sun's core. The energy moves outward through the interior layers, into the sun's atmosphere, and is released into the solar system as heat and light.

Another 2016 image that could have been processed a little better the first time round. The air was filled with smoke at the time from farm fields burning in the neighbourhood which gave off a pinky orange cast in the sky but through my heavy handed use of contrast to retrieve the details I lost the original tones during the processing when I first captured it. The colours in this version, however, are much closer to the original raw file which I prefer. Don't ask me why I couldn't see this on my first attempt..*SIGH!*
I was also quite proud of this image after capturing the fast moving longtail boat successfully with simple manual focus. No, I wasn't being clever, I just didn't know how to use the overly complicated Sony auto focusing back then with the technology bearing very little resemblance to Sony's current auto focus features (which are staggering by the way!). In fact, my dependency on manual focus back then was probably the reason why I got into landscape photography to begin with, I was hopeless at capturing moving objects!
Thank you for hobbling by :)

This is the view from the inside of the GMC truck in my previous posti from an abandoned farm east of Innisfail, Alberta.

A long exposure image of the futuristicly designed Brant Street Pier in Burlington, Ontario.
Thanks for viewing and have a great day!
So this is how you swim inward. So this is how you flow outwards. So this is how you pray.

Geelong Rail and Sail
Steamrail Victoria is running the Geelong Rail and Sail today. I took this shot as the train was approaching Hoppers Crossing Station this morning.
View LARGE on Black and follow the boat and the seagull out to sea!
Sorry I didn't get time for Flickr yesterday - I shall try to catch up with you all today!
there’s so much beauty in the world. there’s love and kindness, too. sometimes we forget, but we can remember together: love, kindness, and compassion radiate outward in beautiful ways.
