challanger fixed on the floor ;-)

I can't quite make out what it is this crow was working on, but there was obviously some skill and patience involved. I was just able to grab a quick shot while holding Blanca with my left hand. She wanted to chase the crow, and the crow knew it but was reluctant to abandon the prize and waited till the last moment before flying off with it.

Meu primeiro registro da pequena (em tamanho aparente/angular) Galáxia do Sombreiro. O processamento foi bastante trabalhoso. Preciso estudar melhores formas de captação/processamento para essa galáxia. Neste registro estão somados frames captados em dois dias consecutivos, totalizando 6 horas e 38 minutos de exposição empilhados. Aproximadamente metade dos frames foram realizados sem filtro e a outra metade com o filtro Optolong L-eNhance.

"A galáxia do Sombreiro (Messier 104, NGC 4594), é uma galáxia espiral com núcleo brilhante rodeado por um disco achatado de material escuro, que fica a 28 milhões de anos-luz de distância. Essa brilhante galáxia é conhecida como sombreiro devido a sua aparência característica que se assemelha a um chapéu. A galáxia possui uma magnitude aparente de +8,3". Fonte: Wikipedia.org

Father Christmas put an ND filter in my stocking last year, but as everyone who follows me will know, I'm not technically minded, so I had to google what this was and how to use it.

This was my first attempt, which for me, didn't seem too bad, but I would be very grateful to receive any comments/advice/tips on using an ND filter, as I plan to venture off to the coast again this week and might have another 'play'.

Thanks a lot ... and Happy Easter

they are responsible for attaching the rail to the base plate so the rail cannot move vertically or horizontally with respect to the base plate

I was experimenting with Technic panels and this little craft appeared. I'm not sure if it's a spaceship or anti-grav flyer.

There are some more views on Instagram. I'm quite proud of fitting the engine into the tail!

well, geographically this shouldn't be in my "Bremerhaven" set. But I re-visited this place while staying there...

This cute and impressive wagtail gave me a good show and got used to me pretty quick. It is obviously a tough subject to photograph due to their size and speed. Out of the few thousands shots I took, a couple stood out of the acceptably Sharp that I managed to capture. This where it caught this flying insect display it’s impressive technic. I also liked that I captured the reflection. This has been captured along the Silh in Zurich.

I ran to the camera too soon....

A bit of technical difficulty x3

I kinda like it though.

This is my backyard, in Latham, while it's snowing.
