Consider this a medieval/fantasy sniper,
I made this to fit on a floating rock, an airship or just a very high tower.
theoritically it's probably not an effective device,
considering possible wind, inaccurate,..
but remember, it's fantasy, no one needs to explain why the rocks are floating as well :P

Klard, a Le-Toa, who met Bonele during a heist.
Klard's Akaku is linked with the scope of his X-50 Sniper. The sniper itself is incorporated with Kanoka of Intangibility. Klard must manually input at what range a single bullet will turn incorporeal for a fraction of a second before returning to a solid state. This allows for the removal of targets behind a single obstacle. Klard is also equipped with various blades for close-range struggles
When Bonele is infiltrating locations, Klard will act as her eyes, utilizing the X-ray factor of his akaku to inform her of enemy movements via a "Trained" mental connection they share.
Klard is not bubbly and friendly like most le-toa, having been enslaved by steltians and forced to fight while still a le-matoran. This has ripped much of the "Joy" from his life.

As the accuracy of small arms increased, fueled by the arms race of the Great Steam War, it bacame neccesary to improve the sights of firearms. The invention of the "sharpshooter", a scoped heavy rifle, revolutionized infantry warfare and made foot soldiers more of a threat to tank crewmen.
The M60A is the Special Edition of the MKC M60, issued to the support infantry upon joining the Special Forces Section of the MKC P.M. Division. There is also a short version (not shown) which is issued to soldiers that join the Infiltration Unit of the SFS. Both are issued equipped with a suppressor, Objectifying Scope (wide angle, 2-8x zoom, variable night vision), and a round counter.
The shot was digiscoped through a Swarovski ATX 30-70x95 Spotting Scope using a DCB II adapter and Panasonic Lumix GX8 camera with 1.7 20mm pancake lens
This extra gadget makes polar aligning so much easier giving a much clearer view and has a 1x or 2x adjustment. Plus it just pushes straight over the original polar scope and clamps tight with a thumb screw. Easy peasy. Then there's the rotating base swivel with quick release, this is for when you're out in a dark site and you've set your tripod as close as possible pointing north but then find its's not quite enough. With this you can fine adjust and also has a quick release plate for removing the Staradventurer.

The following is from Wikipedia
A Quinceañera, Quince, Quinceañero or Quince años (English: "fifteen years"), is a coming of age ceremony held in some Latin American cultures on a girl's Amys fifteenth birthday, comparable to a Sweet Sixteen celebration.
Planning begins up to a year in advance, and requires the resources of several members of the family and friends. The family priest will perform a Quinceañera ceremony in church. The girl's baptismal godparents will oversee the spiritual celebration, and her many friends and relatives will attend to see the recognition she will receive as she makes the transition from girl to young lady in everyone's eyes.
Quinceañera are comparable in scope and grandeur to weddings, and the party atmosphere that follows the somewhat more subdued religious atmosphere. There is a significant dress, just as with a wedding, and can be just as expensive and unique as a wedding gown. Flowers and decorations are selected to match the color scheme of the festivities, a reception is held at which guests will be served a meal and there will be dancing for all in attendance.

Strange name but beautiful group of galaxies in Pegasus. The spiral galaxy in the center of the photo (NGC 7331) is easily visible in small telescopes from dark skies. The fainter galaxies in the group require larger instruments and dark skies to spot. I remember seeing at least two of them with my 16" dob but probably could have seen more if I spent more time there.
This was my first image processed using PixInsight. Outstanding piece of software. If you're an astrophotographer, I highly recommend checking it out!

Staff Sgt. Douglas Brown looks through a boresight telescope on an F-16 Fighting Falcon trainer to make sure the M61A1 Vulcan cannon barrels are correctly aligned at Misawa Air Base, Japan, July 2, 2012. As Brown watched the crosshairs of the scope, he instructed another Airman to move a collimator so the weapon alignment was accurate. Brown is a 35th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron resource advisor.

Propably the final version - i've used s**tload of my creative ideas on this project:D
Since version A4, i made only cosmetic changes to the whole gun, and added custom scope
Also - check all tech data on A4 version description
Hope you like it:D
Description
Although excellent parameters, A4 version of 'Pinpointer' wasn't a complete succes. Due to minor comfort issues and lack of sufficient targeting system, Delta Xray took customers advices into account and re-projected rifle. The outcome, is the new A5 version.
Changes since A4 version:
-Larger thumb hole, for easier operating
-Custom build-in scope (model QXT-11a - see description_
-Even better rail cooling system
QXT-11a Indirect View System (patent pending)
Due to the extreme distances between target and XRF-228 user, scientists inveted completely new targeting system. Scope works in two modes: Direct and Indirect view. Direct is standard see-through modified zoom (4x-20x) sniper scope. The innovation is Indirect View. Small computer on the side collects video feed (from a variety of sources - helmet cams, hacked security cams and so on). This image is displayed to the user. Alongside - computer with collects data where the gun is pointed and corrects that on the display (so while viewing target through another soldier helm-cam, u still see your crosshairs - they appear as on the object user' currently looking at.) Also, a little button immiediately points the gun a the place the user's currently looking at.
Micro-Movement System:
When target's farther than 3000m meters, it's almost impossible to correct the crosshair with human hands. And there's another innovation. Small joystick is connected to the Gyro-stabilizer, allowing for supreme accuracy. (also works when Indirect view is on)
----------------------------
I hope you understand how scope works - it's not that complicated:D

This little guy was sick of me giving him one peanut at a time. He noticed my red bucket filled with the snack, and decided to jump in and raid it!
Cuando dos o más elementos se combinan para formar un determinado compuesto, lo hacen según una relación constante entre sus masas.
Soon after the start of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope’s science operations, astronomers noticed something unexpected in the data: red objects that appear small on the sky, located in the distant, young universe. Come to be known as “little red dots” (LRDs), this intriguing class of objects is not well understood at present, sparking new questions and prompting new theories about the processes that occurred in the early universe.
A team of astronomers sifted through James Webb Space Telescope data from multiple surveys to compile one of the largest samples of “little red dots” (LRDs) to date. The team started with the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) survey before widening their scope to other extragalactic legacy fields, including the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) and the Next Generation Deep Extragalactic Exploratory Public (NGDEEP) survey.
From their sample, they found that these mysterious red objects that appear small on the sky emerge in large numbers around 600 million years after the big bang and undergo a rapid decline in quantity around 1.5 billion years after the big bang. Spectroscopic data of some of the LRDs in their sample, provided by the Red Unknowns: Bright Infrared Extragalactic Survey (RUBIES), suggests that many are accreting black holes. However, further study of these intriguing objects is required.
[Image description: Six Webb images of little red dots are combined in a two-row mosaic. Each little red dot is centered within a square frame and lies against the black background of space. Each dot has a yellow-white circular core surrounded by a red, fuzzy ring. White text in the top left corner of each box lists the source’s name from the Webb surveys, and its redshift. From left to right, the top row reads CEERS 14448, z = 4.75; NGDEEP 4321, z = 8.92; and PRIMER-COS 10539, z = 7.48. The bottom row reads CEERS 20320, z = 5.27; JADES 9186, z = 4.99; and PRIMER-UDS 17818, z = 6.40.]

This is often how we see the Gray Wolf (Canis lupus) in Yellowstone, far away and resting. Spotting scopes are prevelent here but we don't have one. This image was taken through the Canon 800mm f11 STM lens and shows what appears to be 13 Gray Wolves all resting save one that has its head up. This bunch was resting on Specimen Ridge in Yellowstone National Park of Wyoming. There was a fine snow happening at the time.

I think one of the great things about where I work, and with Flickr as well, is constantly being surrounded by creative people not afraid to dream with a camera, or without if necessary. Everyday at Blue Moon, someone invariably shows me something that causes me to remark "That is the coolest (insert object or idea here) I have seen all day!" Ok sometimes my exclamations are more original, but the point is, the give and take photographically is amazing. I see so much photography everyday that inspires me, that flips on a little light or makes me itch to load a camera and run around snapping photos. And truly the best reward is not the compliments that others pay my photography, but when I see someone harness that inspiration from them and run off to make their own photos. The photographers that pass through Blue Moon Camera never fail to amaze me and I count myself quite lucky to work with such people. The same can be said of the many contacts I have on Flickr. I seem to see something new everytime I log on that increases the scope of my photography a bit more. So, thanks to all of you who share your photography, many times you do not realize how much of an impact it can have.
And what better image to accompany this than that of this bridge. I like the memories of this evening because I went down to the bridge for sunset of course, and as the sun sank below the horizon the sky went an rather drab gray and the light began to fade. I hung around listening to the frogs begin to warm up figuring there was a chance that something might happen, even with the rather lackluster sky. Suddenly a hint of pink started showing up so I got myself in position and for about 3-4 minutes the sun was at just the right angle below the horizon to tint the underside of the clouds. It was beautiful and brief, gone after just a couple of frames. Sometimes those sunsets are my favorites, the more fleeting, the more the stick with me. This was a double exposure taken with my Nikon and Fuji Velvia 50 slide film.
Im in shiny-science class at my shiny-school and got my own purple latex shiner-scope that lets me see shiny rubber latex cells.
