Thank you all so much for your comments, awards, faves and invites.
Have a great week my friends ❤
A horizontal nymph with her mouth wide open and her hair streaming out behind shouts above a pond with reflections in its surface. The bronze statue’s open mouth symbolises the concept of the wireless radio link. The “Radio-monument” is locally known simply as “The Calling Lady,” a landmark at the Municipal Park (Stadswandelpark) in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
The monument commemorates the first wireless radio connection between the Netherlands and the Dutch East Indies (March 11, 1927) and also the radio transmission of Queen Wilhelmina’s speech from the Philips Research Lab, NL (June 1, 1927):
The “Semper Targens” (the statue’s name, meaning “always on target”) was created by the sculptor Albert Termote, in collaboration with the architect Dirk Roosenburg. The pond was added later by Dirk Frederik Tersteeg. The monument was unveiled on November 28, 1936 by HRH Princess Juliana.
The monument was deliberately captured dark at dusk, in order to remind us of the skywave propagation that is most reliable at night: it is only at night that shortwave frequency radio waves can reach great —or even transcontinental— distances, far far beyond the horizon, after having been reflected in the ionosphere.
Five Minutes before Sunrise on the 15th of October. Best in the light box. Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend.

Without a doubt the most difficult, dangerous and scary shot I've shot.

My trustworthy 2004 Suzuki Burgman 650 Maxi-Scooter in Finch, Ontario, Canada.
It has over 60,000 kilometres / 37,000 miles on its odometer, yet it runs like a charm!
A view from a 747 across the sky to a sunset, (somewhere over China from memory).
The thin cloud formations are reminiscent of waves, where two currents collide.

Flicker corrected with VirtualDub and the MSU Deflicker plugin.
Shot near Kearney, Nebraska, as a very high-based popcorn summer storm rolled through.
Above featured composition:
My canvas painting of the Earth (see my Designs Set) and the metallic base of retro ashtray with some shutter speed play and movement for that swish effect.
if you look closely, you can see my reflection with my camera on the right ; )
* * * * * * * *
A meteor sometimes called a "shooting star," can be the brightest object in the night sky, yet meteoroids are the smallest bodies in the solar system that can be observed by eye. Wandering through space, perhaps as debris left behind by a comet, meteoroids enter the earth's atmosphere, are heated by friction, and for a few seconds streak across the sky as a meteor with a glowing trail.
A brilliant meteor, called a fireball, may weigh many kilograms, but even a meteor weighing less than a gram can produce a beautiful trail. Some of these visitors from space are large enough to survive (at least partially) their trip through the atmosphere and impact the ground as meteorites. Fireballs are sometimes followed by trails of light that persist for up to 30 minutes; some, called bolides, explode with a loud thunderous sound.
How can a particle the size of a grain of sand produce such a spectacular sight? The answer is the speed at which the meteoroid enters the earth's atmosphere. Many meteoroids travel at 60-70 kilometers per second. As a comparison, the shuttle moves around the earth at about 8 kilometers per second.
During its trip through the atmosphere, meteoroids collide with air molecules, knocking away materials and stripping electrons from the meteor. When the stripped atoms recapture electrons, light is emitted. The color of the light depends on the temperature and the material being "excited."
On almost any night a few meteors an hour will be seen from any one place. However, periodically there are meteor showers, with hundreds of meteors emanating from the same apparent spot in the sky. These showers typically last from a few hours to several days. These showers are usually associated with comet paths, and are caused by debris expelled by the comet.
Each day as many as 4 billion meteors, most miniscule in size, fall to earth. Their masses total several tons, seemingly a large amount, but negligible compared to the earth's total mass of 6,600,000,000,000,000,000,000 tons.
"On space walk day, you start off with an exercise period on a stationary bicycle while breathing 100% oxygen through a facemask. After that, the task of suiting up begins. You rely on help from an extra crew member who tugs on sleeves, straightens out wrinkles, locks connectors…. It reminds me of a squire in the Middle Ages helping his knight suit up for battle."
"It takes about six hours from the time you start in the morning until you are ready to open the hatch. After all of this preparation, you will not take lightly to a hatch that does not want to open. That’s what happened to us before our spacewalk earlier this year. The hatch dogs were partly released and allowed the hatch to crack open only 3/8th of an inch. A shaft of brilliant sunlight came through the crack, as if teasing us to come out and play."
"Fortunately, experience gained by owning an old pickup truck with cantankerous doors came in handy. With a little jockeying on the handle and some soft-spoken words, the hatch came open and we started our day."
"If we were chasing bad guys, I am afraid they would be well into hyperspace by now."
"In the sci-fi movies, astronauts can quickly don their spacesuits and in short order, be out the door into the vacuum of space. They’re always in a hurry to chase bad guys, alien monsters, or look for holes in the hull spewing out precious atmosphere," ISS science officer Don Pettit.
NASA and other organizations have developed a sophisticated weather monitoring device.
This NASA Global Climate Model (GCM) is used to see how Earth's climate is changing.
A GCM calculates many things, such as how much sunlight is reflected and absorbed by Earth's atmosphere, the temperature of the air and oceans, the distribution of clouds, rainfall, and snow, and what may happen to the polar ice caps in the future.

Just splurged and bought myself the 2011 Kawasaki Ninja 250r. Traded in my Suzuki Skywave as I wanted to try a sport bike for a change. So far Im loving it but takes a little getting used to the new riding position.
Shot on Iphone 4 at Naha port, Okinawa
sus lágrimas fueron de insectos y jamás volvió a ver en la oscuridad. Sus uñas de tiza fluorecente rayaron el piso. Estaba atrapada nuevamente. Aquel pozo, donde la luz de su habitación era un pequeño lunar brillante sobre el nuevo e inexistente techo.
10th Mountain Division Commanding General Maj. Gen. Milford H. Beagle Jr. recognizes Soldiers from 1st Brigade Combat Team and 10th Combat Aviation Brigade for representing the division during the 2021 Noble Skywave Competition in which they won “The Best High-Frequency Radio Operators in The World for the 0 Watts- 150 Watts” category, on Nov. 29, 2021, on Fort Drum, NY. The Soldiers were each awarded The Army Achievement Medal for their accomplishment during the Canadian communications competition.

Увы, но к сожалению у них получился довольно поверхностный список, например есть Ульрих Шнаусс, но нет The Radio Dept (wtf?!), плюс они забыли: Skywave, Pinkshinyultrablast, Pia Fraus, Resplandor, Malory, Air Formation, An April March, Dråpe, Asalto al Parque Zoológico, Flyying Colours, Ringo Deathstarr, и ещё полсотни групп.
Для уравновешивания я составил альтернативный Top 100.

DOT Art partnered with the Local Development Corporation of East New York and the East Brooklyn BID to present a sculptural installation by Brooklyn-based artist Julia Sinelnikova at the intersection of Fulton Street and Van Sinderen Avenue in Brooklyn. Titled, “Skywave,” the work paid homage to the spirit of the open sky and ocean waves to evoke feelings of tranquility at Broadway Junction’s bustling transportation hub. Fabricated locally in Brooklyn at Rufuge Arts and comprised of hand-welded steel and acrylic, the sculpture created a dynamic and unique light pattern on the sidewalk based on the sun's movement, changing over the course of a day.
