Milky Way Night, Florida Keys.

Careful planning and some luck payed off here as I was watching the weather all week for clear skies and had scouted this location earlier in the week. I have seen virtually zero photos of the Milky Way in the Florida Keys but between islands the light pollution is low and I thought this dead tree would make a neat foreground. This early in the year the Core also rises in the very early hours before dawn so I was walking along these tide pools at 3am to set up for this shot. I was annoyed that a tanker truck decided to park near me on the roadside at this beach, but his lights ended up lighting the foreground for me! So happy to have my first Milky Way images this year from a new location.

It doesn't have to be the blue iris -

it could be weeds in a vacant lot

or a few small stones -

just pay attention...

and then patch a few words together

and don't try to make them elaborate -

this isn't a contest, but the doorway into thanks

and a silence in which another voice may speak.

ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK

Het Zegekruid (Nicandra physalodes) is een eenjarige plant

Na de bloei in de periode van juni tot september ontstaat er evenals bij de echte lampionplant een lampion van kelkbladen met daarin een vrucht: een 15 mm grote bruine bes.

The Zegekruid (Nicandra physalodes) is an annual plant

After flowering in the period from June to September, just like with the real lantern plant, a lantern made from sepals with a fruit in it: a 15 mm large brown berry.

Entre les nuages au col du Tourmalet.

Le col du Tourmalet est un col de montagne des Pyrénées centrales françaises, à une cinquantaine de kilomètres au sud de Tarbes, dans le département des Hautes-Pyrénées en région Occitanie. Il est emprunté par la route des cols.

Du haut de ses 2 115 m, il offre une vue spectaculaire sur le pays Toy et la vallée du Bastan. Au pied du Pic du Midi de Bigorre, il est un passage mythique du Tour de France.

Does anyone pay for lightroom on a Mac? Will it do better than this? I am using only the software that came preloaded on the iMac.

One from the archives. I learned to brighten shadows with this one, and then boosted the color in the sky. This one was a bit dull and I almost tossed it out.

Paying Rent 🌹

I Own Nothing

I Rent A Space In Time

This Is A place I Occupy

But I Can't Say It's Mine

For A Few Short moments Only

That's How Long I'll Be Here

In This Space That I occupy

I Bring No goods, No Land, No Wealth As I Am Born Into This Place

Luckily For Me though

I Can Rent This Little Space.

Patience and skill pay off for this Black Bear. During the fall and winter months when the salmon migrate up the creeks and rivers to reproduce, the Black Bears take advantage. The Black Bears fatten up on salmon which helps them gain the needed weight for the colder winter months.

It is estimated there are more than 120,000 Black Bears in British Columbia and over 7,000 Black Bears on Vancouver Island, making it one of the more dense places in the world for this bear population.

Note, photo taken in a very dark environment, so I had to do some editing to get rid of noise due to high iso. Not the best image quality, but I like the story telling element I was able to capture.
