Ice encroaches on a wetland pond under gray December skies.
Water’s maximum density is achieved at near 40 degrees F and it is less dense when warmer or cooler. For this reason, ice in water bodies forms from the surface down, rather than the bottom up, with immense consequence for aquatic life, the integrity of aquatic ecosystems, waterfowl, ice skaters, and cubes of ice in a glass.
Cardoon is an architectural splendor with bold texture, thanks to its large, prickly, almost dagger-shaped gray-green arching leaves and a statuesque, vase-shaped frame. It is topped with round, purple, thistlelike flowers in midsummer. Cardoon can reach up to 5 feet tall and 4 feet wide.
Noteworthy Characteristics
A close cousin of the artichoke, this native to the well-drained, sunny slopes of the southwest Mediterranean. It produces magnificent flowerheads that can be cut and dried for arrangements. Edible leaf stalks and midribs are tasty when blanched. Unopened flowerheads can be eaten like artichokes.

Uhmm, ouch, Mistress?
What's up? Are you still complaining?
This new toy - it's got twice as much spikes as the old.
Isn't that nice of me? That's only half of the pain for you.
How's that?
Didn't pay attention in physics? p=F/A (*), so if we double the area, the number of spikes that is, we halve the pressure.
But these spikes are sharper than the others!
Hmm, you've got a point there.
One-hundred and fifty, Mistress. In my back.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
(*) pressure is force per area. And funnily enough, the abbreviations that were so difficult to learn in german, just seem logical when you're writing in english.

langstertflap/long-tailed widowbird/euplectes progne
These male birds in their wedding suits makes them quite clumsy flyers but nevertheless still attractive for some females.
And for the sake of honesty, the flying one is the same bird as the sitting one, which cannot be explained by quantum physics.
Aurora borealis early May 11 from Deception Pass State Park, Washington. The Adobe Lightroom Denoise AI feature was used to reduce noise, particularly in the reflection.
A 4:30am alarm with a quick stop at the Dunkin drive-thru got me to the New Jersey Festival of Ballooning in time to experience what it takes to unfurl, inflate and fly a hot air balloon. It's been years since I've done this and it was a beautiful morning to be amongst all the dedication and skill these crews have.
On another note, felt like it was time to update my profile pic. As much as I liked the old one, it looked more like a high school yearbook pic at this point. Lol!
Hot water freezing faster than cold water at low temperatures? Yes, it’s a strange water property known as “Mpemba effect”. I decided to try it out. This is my version, with a little help from a thermos and my muse of course :)
Location: Yellowknife, North West Territories, Canada
Ambient Temperature: -30 Celsius / -22 Fahrenheit
The northern lights are elementary particle physics, superstition, mythology and folklore come to life. Throughout the ages they have filled people with wonder and fear. They have challenged and inspired scientists and artists. I can certainly add photographers! To see the aurora was an unforgettable experience. Auroras are caused by vast super-heated supersonic collections of smashed atoms, known as solar wind, that enter the earth’s upper atmosphere where they collide with oxygen and nitrogen atoms. These collisions usually take place between 60 & 300 km above ground, causing the oxygen and nitrogen atoms to become electrically excited and to emit light. The result is a dazzling dance of green, blue, white and red light.
All that Jazz (Chicago)
Come on babe, why don’t we paint the town?
And all that jazz
I’m gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down
And all that jazz
Start the car, I know a whoopee spot
Where the gin is cold, but the piano’s hot
It’s just a noisy hall where there’s a nightly brawl
And all... that... jazz
Skidoo
And all that jazz
Hotcha...Whoopee
And all that jazz
Slick your hair, and wear your buckle shoes
And all that jazz
I hear that Father Dipp is gonna blow the blues
And all that jazz
Hold on hun, we’re gonna bunny hug
I bought some aspirin, down at United Drug
In case you shake apart, and want a brand new start
To do... that... jazz
Find a flask, we’re playing fast and loose
And all that jazz
Right up here is where I store the juice
And all that jazz
Come on babe, we’re gonna brush the sky
I betcha lucky Lindy
Never flew so high
Cause in the stratosphere
How could he lend an ear
To all... that... jazz?
Oh, you’re gonna see your sheba shimmy shake
And all that jazz
Oh, she’s gonna shimmy till her garters break
And all that jazz
Show her where to park her girdle
Oh, her mother’s blood’ll curdle *
Did she hear, her baby's queer*
For all... that... jazz!
No, I’m no one’s wife
But, oh I love my life
And all... that... jazz!!
That jazz!

Brocken Spectra (aka mountain spectra)! My first time seeing this optical phenomenon was on a recent sunrise hike. In the center of the circles is my shadow cast on the clouds by the sun behind me. My head is surrounded by a halo of “rings of glory”. A glory resembles a saint’s halo (not particularly fitting for a metalhead like me…) and is believed to be caused by light tunneling through air inside miniscule water droplets and then being emitted backwards due to resonance effects. In order to see this the clouds actually have to be below you because the center of glory is antisolar . So a 10^4 mountain is a pretty good spot to experience some cool optics.
Close-up of the Orion nebula over dunes at White Sands National Park.
For this shot, due to the park closing not that long after it got dark, I had to set up a tracker, simulate the position of Orion, and then go just outside the park and set it up again and continue stacking data from the sky. Hopefully one day when the park opens up again for backcountry camping, I can re-do this image all from one tripod location. However, the perspective is in fact scientifically accurate, with everything taken at a focal length of 300mm — see 3rd image — so this is in fact an accurate representation of what it would look like at that focal length if our eyes were more sensitive!
This nebula is one of the brightest in the sky, and the brightest parts of it are actually visible to the naked eye, even in a suburban area. It’s up in the skies right now! Go out tonight after it gets dark, and you’ll see a faint blur just below the belt of Orion between the “legs”. Though you’ll only be seeing the very brightest part of the nebula, if you take your camera and star tracker to it you will reveal the rest of these details which are larger than a full moon in the sky.
Fun fact: The white “sand” at White Sands isn’t actually sand. It’s a huge pile of naturally-occurring gypsum, the same stuff that is in drywall :)

All art is but imitation of nature.-- Seneca (Letters from a Stoic - Letter LXV: On the First Cause)
The universe itself is God and the universal outpouring of its soul. --Chrysippus (Quoted by Cicero in De Natura Deorum)
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats

I think I can place this image in the “never before seen” category. The main subject here is a micrometeorite smaller than a grain of sand. On the sides, we see rough natural diamonds with impurities that cause them to fluoresce. The diamonds are bathed in ultraviolet light, causing them to emit visible light – the diamonds are the source of light for this photo. Light within diamonds illuminating stardust.
Taken with a Mitutoyo Plan APO 20x microscope objective, the full image required 575 frames to focus stack. The stacking was done with a continuous light source, so the best option here is to switch your camera to an electronic shutter. At these magnifications, the mechanical shutter shakes the camera enough to create blurry images when not using flash. The software used here is important: Helicon Focus. It’s by far the most efficient and powerful tool for extensive focus stacking, but more importantly: The company is based in Kharkiv, Ukraine. If you’re into macro photography and microscopy, check them out: www.heliconsoft.com/ - they have a 20% off sale right now.
The situation in Ukraine is optimistic and dire simultaneously, with constant bombardment from Russian missiles aimed at civilian infrastructure. Putin’s Russia is attempting to destroy the electricity grid which would keep Ukrainians in the dark, and without heat. Such an act on its own could be considered a genocide by the Geneva Conventions, on top of the other genocidal war crimes already committed in 2022… and earlier. The true spirit of Ukraine was seen over the holidays, when those without power helped others in their community, uniting strangers for essential aid but also festive cheer.
The world continues to send aid to Ukraine. The first US “Patriot” missile defense system is reported to be en route to Ukraine. A month ago, the Bulgarian government formally announced that they are sending military equipment and weapons to support Ukraine. Weapons manufacturers around the world are making ammunition as quickly as possible to replenish stockpiles from those that have given the Ukrainian military everything they could. The “war machine” around the planet is in motion.
It feels like the world is watching from the sidelines, with the goal of destroying Russia while simultaneously being weary of China. The goal should be for Ukraine to win, but to offer too much support too quickly would possibly cause Russia to back away with a massive military still intact… or use the unthinkably devastating weapons. The goal seems to be wearing down the Russian forces until there is nothing left, while cruise missiles impact on homes and hotels. Innocent lives are lost in the process.
Sanctions appear to be working, but Russian weapons are still being built. Cruise missiles recently launched at Ukrainian civilian targets can be traced to manufacturing dates in September 2022. Drones continue to arrive from Iran, though thankfully they have been largely ineffective on the battlefield and are shot out of the sky. Rumours of weapons shipments from North Korea are gaining credibility. Weapons alone cannot win a war, and Russia is running very low on its most important asset: trained soldiers.
The losses continue in huge numbers, with over 700 Russian soldiers killed in action every day. Many of these men have almost no training, and are being sent to areas such as Bakhmut where the Ukrainian forces decimate wave after wave of frontal attacks, losing no ground in the process.
Soon, the fields will be frozen. New territory will be liberated by the Ukrainian people. I sincerely hope that when the front line is broken once again, the Russian efforts will dissolve along with their current government. Some sources suggest that Putin has a plan to escape to Venezuela if his government collapses, although such things are impossible to verify. This winter will be the most important phase of this global conflict.
Do you sit back and watch? Most of us do. This is a reminder that you can do something to help. Write to your politicians and say that you’d rather Ukraine win swiftly at this point, since Russia is no longer a threat to the West. You can create artwork, you can donate money, and you can vote with your wallet. Personally, I now avoid buying anything from a company that still operates in Russia. You can find that list here: www.dontfundwar.com/directory . There are companies in Ukraine you can support as well – I previously mentioned HeliconSoft, but I’ve purchased some delicious spices from this store: www.ebay.com/str/ethnofoods . I’m certain there are countless other things that can be sourced from Ukraine (I’m a big fan of cast iron cookware made in Ukraine from BIOL and Maysternya).
Stay safe out there, folks. To my friends and family in Ukraine, I think about you every day. Слава Україні!

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.

Homer: Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who traveled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home. . . --Homer's Odyssey, Book I
