Fotoreise Lofoten / Norwegen

 

Aurora borealis: Polarlichter entstehen, wenn elektrisch geladene Teilchen des Sonnenwinds aus der Magnetosphäre (hauptsächlich Elektronen, aber auch Protonen) auf Sauerstoff- und Stickstoffatome in den oberen Schichten der Erdatmosphäre treffen und diese ionisieren. Bei der nach kurzer Zeit wieder erfolgenden Rekombination wird Licht ausgesandt. Durch die Energieübertragung gelangen die Elektronen auf ein höheres Energieniveau, fallen danach aber wieder zurück (Fluoreszenz).

 

Die Energie stammt von der Sonne. Sie sendet den Sonnenwind aus, ein Plasma mit einer Dichte von ca. 5 Teilchen/cm³ und einer durchschnittlichen Geschwindigkeit von 500 bis 800 km/s, der bis zur Erdbahn etwa 2 bis 3½ Tage unterwegs ist. Die größten Sonnenwindausbrüche geschehen durch magnetische Rekonnexionen im Bereich von Sonnenflecken während der turbulenten, fleckenreichen Phase des Sonnenzyklus. Sonnenwindteilchen treffen auf die irdische Magnetosphäre und treten mit ihr in Wechselwirkung.

 

Das Polarlicht stammt im grünen Bereich aus einer Höhe von 100 bis 200 km, im roten Bereich aus einer Höhe über 200 km. Angeregter ionisierter Stickstoff sendet violettes bis blaues Licht (427,8 nm und 391,4 nm) aus. Zur Anregung von Stickstoffatomen sind jedoch sehr hohe Energien notwendig, deshalb lassen sich diese Farben nur bei starken magnetosphärischen Störungen beobachten.

 

Polarlichter treten hauptsächlich in den Polarregionen auf, wo die Feldlinien die Atmosphäre durchdringen. Sie kommen sowohl in nördlichen Breiten (Nordlichter, auch Aurora borealis) als auch auf der Südhalbkugel vor (Südlichter, auch Aurora australis). Besonders häufig treten Polarlichter in Alaska, Kanada, Finnland, Island und Norwegen auf. (Quelle: Wikipedia)

There are three very similar tower blocks grouped together in Poplar - the EleKtron (sic) Tower, The Proton Tower and the Neutron Tower. The EleKtron (sic) Tower is the smallest of the three but I am positive this shot is of the Proton Tower...

Protonic Blue is the best color on the BMW i8 in my opinion

Мурал (огромное изображение, которое нанесено на стену здания) на стене Центра культуры и искусств КПИ.

Автор - канадский художник Аарон Ли Хилл.

 

Аарон Ли Хилл: «На Мурале изображены протоны, которые движутся навстречу друг другу с огромной скоростью, а при их столкновения высвобождается энергия. Стены ведущего технического вуза Украины наилучше подошли для воплощения замысла".

 

В росписи, по словам художника, соединились фотография начала XIX века с людьми в движении и образ большого адронного коллайдера. "Мурал в Киеве, пожалуй, является одной из самых сложных и невероятных работ, над которыми я имел честь работать", - отметил Аарон Ли-Хилл.

Registered in northeast London, on SORN and without an MOT since 2020.

Last time I was in the area, this was surrounded by weeds! The weeds are gone but this remains.

Lovely car to see. Didn't know about it until a month ago and finally snapped it off the driveway. Looked in fabulous condition if a little bit dirty. Interestingly is now SORNed and is a two owner car

The famed racetrack and the sailing rocks. On a cool clear night in march 2021, I was lucky to be the only one on the playa at night. I had a fun time walking around shooting different comps. Most of the rocks move north-south direction, so even though I wanted the milky way arch on the rocks, that wouldn't happen. So I ended up with this shot. This was taken very close to twilight as it was early in the milky way season.

Ultra low mileage Proton in great condition advertising scrappage.

For me, this composition exemplifies the symbiotic relationship between research and nature that is Fermilab.

 

The Proton Pagoda (left) was the operations center for fixed-target beamline experiments that occurred downstream to the right. The yellow spiral staircase in its base was designed to represent the double helix strand of the DNA molecule.

Well known late 80s Proton, snapped by loads before, last MOT expired way back in 2015, now SORN.

Here is a one from the Mothers day Aurora display a few months back

A fairly rare proton arc was visible during this display, which was great to see reaching up into the sky ...

All you need is a miniature figurine, a flashlight, your macro lens and some space on the kitchen counter. Ahhh, the fun you can have on a rainy afternoon. :)

Spotted in Kensal Rise, according to the DVLA its only done 49k miles, looked in good shape too, these are scarce cars nowadays

Lovely old Proton,Getting a rare sight now.

The ‘GE’ is no doubt the rarest spec of Proton MPi, both then and now. It was the base spec of the range, but many people went for the higher spec GL and GLS due to them still being so affordable, yet better equipped. Usual Red paint fade aside, this example looked to be in good condition, particularly for an inner London car. Oh, and yes, that is my note under the wiper!

It occurred to me (after I gave it away) that I never actually took a decent picture of my proton pack. So here it is. You can find instruction for this in BrickJournal issue 29.

It didn't really have a giant chicken on the bonnet, although it looks slightly like it lives in a place where that might happen from time to time.

 

Has surprisingly low mileage, just over 31k at its last MoT test.

RA-42434 - Yakovlev YAK-42M - PROTON

at Frankfurt Rhein/Main Airport (FRA)

 

c/n 4520424305017 - built in 1993 for Orel Avia -

final operator was YAK Service -

w/o 9/7/11 in Volga river near Yaroslavl Airport (UUDL)

destroyed when it crashed about 1 km from the runway of Yaroslavl Airport (IAR), Russia. Forty-three people were killed and two survived. The surviving passenger died on September 12 of his injuries.

The airplane carried members of the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl KHL ice hockey team for a match in Minsk.

Incredible find! I have been reliably informed on the Soeul Classics facebook group that thid is one of the last carburettor engined Protons so this isn't an MPi.

 

Called the 'Saga' in other markets. That name wasn't going to work in the UK!

These were never very common in the UK and it's quite a while since I recall seeing one. 41,000 miles at the last MOT and appeared to be in excellent condition.

This is a 12 shot panorama covering ~180 degrees that I took during the geomagnetic storm on June 22nd. This was facing east over the ocean with the aurora on the left, the Milky Way on the right and a Proton Arc in the middle.

I thought this was a Gen 2. Presumably they retained the Persona name for the saloon. Although it does say Gen 2 on the bootlid!

Shot taken during my outing with ANNAMIR, ALAN CAFE

 

This shot was taken at Proton Lake in Proton City, Tanjung Malim, Perak, Malaysia.

 

Tone mapped HDR with 3 exposures.

This is the first of these I've seen in quite a while, numbers really seem to have thinned out in the last three years or so.

 

This was taken during a quick look around Cambridge, which seemed quite promising for old cars initially, with a couple of good sightings while driving into the centre (F-reg Micra, early Jag XJ-S Convertible, Honda Concerto), but didn't fully deliver when I was on foot unfortunately!

This amazing Proton is owned by I Drive A Classic, who pulled it out of a garage with Furious Driving in September this year. Amazingly the car started first time on 10 year old petrol! The video's of pulling the car out have both racked up 700,000 views together.

Seen at the NEC Classic car show

This looked fairly smart and original, barring the odd dent.

Always nice to spot a Proton!

Now here is an extinct car! A proton, in amazing condition. I love this one so much that it is my phone home screen! Currently it is on SORN and without MOT since the 8th January 2022, it seems that the car goes into hibernation during the winter time which is very good thinking from the owner. Last logbook change was on the 4th November 2021.

Seen at the Stony Startford classic car show.
