Still getting my computer in order but managed to edit this image that was taken a couple days ago of Kynne and I wearing Belle Epoque's latest dresses from N21. My image vaporized and met an untimely end but luckily Kynne snapped a few different angles and shared one with me to edit. You know..... I have found that some of my greatest friends live inside this electronic device.....

As most of my adventures do, this one began cheerfully enough, but it soon vaporized into a navigational disaster! We were on our way to a cocktail party, and I had tossed on leggings, boots, and a cute bustier top and cardigan for the occasion, all frou frou'd up with my faux Chanel pearl handbag. I was feeling like things were off to a fantastic start to the evening, and I could almost taste the margaritas I would soon be indulging in at the party. But we went through a tunnel, which now in hindsight I know must have really been a Stargate, because we ended up here!

Yes, Route 66, circa some time in the 60s! I could not believe it! We had no clue how to get back home, and all we could see were diners and gas stations, rusty cars and motels! It was a sad moment when I realized that I was not going to be drinking any tequila with friends this evening. There is only one thing to do in a moment this dire. In good old SL...we just clickety click click the teleport button, and home we go! Thank Heavens!

Happy Wednesday, my friends! And I hope there are no wrong turns in your day! 💕

Meteor Crater in Arizona is an interesting National Natural Landmark.

Privately owned by the Barringer Crater Company, this 1.2 km diameter, 170m deep hole confounded geologists and speculators alike for nearly 70 years. In the 1890s, mineralogists and geologists investigated meteorites in the area and the crater itself (known then as Canyon Diablo) to determine whether it could have been formed by a meteoric impact - a radical theory at that time. The Chief Geologist for the U.S. Geological Survey, Grove Karl Gilbert, hypothesized that for the crater to have been caused by a meteor would require a meteor the size of the crater, and that the meteorite itself would be buried below the crater, creating a magnetic anomaly. Since he could find no evidence to support his hypothesis, Gilbert, the most respected and prestigious geologist of his time, declared the crater a result of a volcanic steam explosion.

Daniel Moreau Barringer, a mining engineer who had made a fortune in Silver, learned about the crater and meteorites around it and became convinced that it was an impact crater. Believing, like Gilbert, that a sizable iron meteor (on the order of ten million tons) must have caused the crater, he began the Standard Iron Company to begin mining the area in hopes of making a billion-dollar fortune. Barringer, and his partner Benjamin Chew Tilghman set about trying to prove the validity of their impact theory, presenting arguments to the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia and the National Academy of Science in Princeton during the first decade of the 20th century.

In the following two decades, Barringer continued mining for the meteor, changing the focus from directly beneath the crater to under the south rim, only to find water. With investors getting nervous about the potential for losing their money, Barringer consulted F.R. Moulton, an astronomer, for his analysis on the size of the meteor. Unfortunately for Barringer, Moulton determined the meteor to be approximately 300,000 tons (3% of Barringer’s speculation), and that the bulk of it would have been vaporized on impact.

On November 30, 1929, heartbroken and having lost the bulk of his fortune in addition to the hundreds of thousands of investors' dollars, Barringer died a week after receiving Moulton's most thorough analysis. It took until 1960 when, Eugene Merle Shoemaker identified the existence of coesite - a silica that is only formed by intense over pressurization of quartzite rock - in the meteor crater, finally confirming Barringer's hypothesis of the impact event.

In the century since Gilbert's and Barringer's hypotheses, science has advanced considerably in geology and astronomy, to the point where impact craters hundreds of miles wide have been identified across the globe. But, without the pioneering work by Barringer, and his willingness to take on the contemporary scientific establishment (backing Gilbert), little of this would have been realized.

This shot, captured from a beach in St. Barts, came to mind for the theme "The Shape of Water" for one of my favorite groups: Smile on Saturday.

Life begins and the spirits rise

They become memories that vaporize

And the vapor becomes all the dreams we devise

And while we are dreaming, time flies

Night turns to dawn and dreams to sighs

And sighs change to sweet love that never dies

And love becomes laughter and lullabies

And while we are dreaming, time flies

And while we are dreaming we meet and exchange

Conversations routinely and nothing seems strange

But when we are awake there's a sense of unease

That another night's gone just as quick as you please

And night turns to dawn and then bright skies

And bright skies to picnics on warm Julys

To deep umber autumns and winter goodbyes

And while we are dreaming, time flies

While we are dreaming, time flies

Time flies, time flies, time flies

The Baily Lighthouse

East Ireland | County Dublin

The Baily Lighthouse is located on the southeastern part of Howth Head in Dublin Bay, County Dublin. The first lighthouse on this site dates from 1667. It was a cottage and square tower with a coal-fired beacon. The lighthouse we see today was built in 1814 and was equipped with fixed white catoptric light comprising 24 Argand oil lamps and reflectors. The granite tower is 13 m high and rises 41 m (134 feet) above sea level. In 1853 the fog bell was installed in April, and in 1865 the light source was changed to first order dioptric. At the same time Baily Lighthouse was converted to newly patented gas-burning light. An air horn was installed in 1871 (with coal fired hot air engine), which was replaced with a siren in 1879 and then in 1926 the siren was replaced by a diaphone. In 1892 two additional homes for Assistant Keepers were built and the new light, with a character of one flash every thirty seconds, came into operation on 1st January 1902. The light source was converted from gas to incandescent vaporized paraffin in 1908. A larger two story house was built for the Principal Keeper in 1953, and additional dwellings were built in 1973 as Baily Lighthouse became a training center for Supernumerary Assistant Lighthouse Keepers. In 1972 the light was converted to electric and was equipped with a 1,500 watt bulb in a rotating lens, producing a flash every 20 seconds that can be seen at a range of 26 nautical miles (48 km). The previous optic (from 1902), pedestal, and rotation machine are now on display in the The National Maritime Museum of Ireland in Dun Laoghaire. The lighthouse was converted to automatic operation in 1996-7 but an attendant still lives in the Principal Keeper's residence. The light is currently a 375mm catadioptric annular lens with electric L24 lamps in a UVLA lampchanger. Unfortunately the lighthouse is not open to the public.

The Meteor Crater lies at an elevation of about 1,740 m (5,710 ft) above sea level. It is about 1,200 m (3,900 ft) in diameter, some 170 m deep (570 ft), and is surrounded by a rim that rises 45 m (148 ft) above the surrounding plains. The center of the crater is filled with 210–240 m (690–790 ft) of rubble lying above crater bedrock. One of the interesting features of the crater is its squared-off outline, believed to be caused by existing regional jointing (cracks) in the strata at the impact site.

The object that excavated the crater was a nickel-iron meteorite about 50 meters (160 feet) across. The speed of the impact has been a subject of some debate. Modeling initially suggested that the meteorite struck at up to 20 kilometers per second (45,000 mph) but more recent research suggests the impact was substantially slower, at 12.8 kilometers per second (28,600 mph). It is believed that about half of the impactor's bulk was vaporized during its descent. Impact energy has been estimated at about 10 megatons. The meteorite was mostly vaporized upon impact, leaving little in the crater.

First off, thank you SO much Ambr Rothschild! She took this photo of me at Sunny's Studio and I absolutely love it! This makes her the first photographer I've met up and shot with, and I absolutely love the shots she took. It was hard choosing which one to since they all look good, but at some point I had to just go with one! I can't wait to shoot with her again, and again, because she's totally awesome and instead of overthinking the entire thing just met up with me, let me play barbie dress up for a couple hours, and came out with beautiful results! Meeting her was too much fun, and I think we'll have to create a lot more art together before we're done!

So on that note, Sunny's Studio is pretty damn awesome and I never knew it existed until Ambr took me there. Definitely going to make my life a little easier when I have a shot I want, but not a location in mind, or want to shoot something and can't handle loading a huge sim. Ambr also convinced me to give Black Dragon another chance, and she was right about that too because the photos come so beautiful on it. I still plan on using Firestorm when I'm not shooting since for the most part it usually won't crash my system, but Black Dragon seems more "Complete" then Kirsten's viewer.

So in addition to that, I had a fun weekend. Went on a desert trip with my fam, visited some tiny town nobody goes to, ate some terrible desert food which is usual for desert restaurants, met some great people and had conversations with them, visited 3 museums, two of them revolving around Borax, visited the largest Borax mine in the world, and had an overall great time.

Oh and if you can't tell by the outfit, I'm totally coming to vaporize all of you! I cleaned it first with the borax I brought back from the trip. Tremble before me!

The often forgotten American Falls at Niagara often referred to as the bridal veil falls are truly magnificent and stand apart from the horseshoe falls in so many ways. They stand majestic and proud amid the thunder and roar of the cascading water that vaporizes into a fine white mist as it crashes on the sharp rocks below. .. we had such a fun time walking like tourists along the edge of the Niagara Gorge. Camera in hand, stopping to snap a few shots here and few more there, it was indeed fun, but the best part was the outstanding photos i got to enjoy once i got home. this is just on of the many.

Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

Chunk of ice. Yesterday flowing water and tomorrow maybe vaporized and than again maybe frozen, just like a human soul. Mystery I'll never fully understand!

This is Norah Head Lighthouse, 2 hours north of Sydney. Construction started in 1901. Used a vaporized Kerosene burner and mantle, before becoming electrified in 1961.

At the coking plant in Bottrop - one of the last of its kind in Germany - burning coke is extinguished several times an hour around the clock, resulting in an impressive vapor cloud.

Been so hot lately......

When the sun vaporizes the ice on the grass.

Cos I run this workshop by myself and dad has passed on. I have no one to talk out bike problems so I sit down in the corner of the workshop and think. This bike runs but when it gets hot it misfires. I have checked fuel, compression and spark. Checked jetting, vaporization reduction, ignition timing and valve seating yet it still misfires. God Dad what could be wrong with it? Then as if he is here with me....spark plug ......replace it so I did and voila runs perfect. Dad is still here despite him having passed on. Love you dad as I look at the next bike to do...hmmm nice bike.

There have always been trolls in our forest.

When they fart they leave a mist on the ground, you should never go into those areas - you will be vaporized.

I heard a tree that fell and was stepped upon. They can be gigantic, so this must have been an enormous one.

We stayed here for a while and tip toed out of the forest when it was all quiet again.

It is true.

vaporized water , pure energy ,steam.

A steam vent, or fumarole, is an opening in a planet's crust, often in areas surrounding volcanoes, which emits steam and gases. The steam forms when superheated water vaporizes as its pressure drops when it emerges from the ground.

Siempre bueno para quitar los malos olores.....

Always good to remove bad odors .....

when sun comes out, the fog starts to vaporize ..太陽一出來,雲霧就開始蒸發了 ~~~

Happy Macro Monday! Theme is “abstract”. It’s a plastic air vent on a vaporizer.

#Collection

Three of a collection of beads of different shapes, materials, and colours. I randomly collected them while looking for a replacement bead for the – once professionally beaded, now DIY – necklace I redid with a new wire at the beginning of this year (and photographed it three times for MMs). initially, I bought the glass bead in front as a replacement for the broken bead but it's about 2 mm/0.078 inches bigger than the original beads, and of a darker colour, and in the end, I decided to use the broken bead so the necklace is now very much in "Wabi-sabi" style ;)

I'm not quite sure what the two bigger beads (1 cm/0.39 inches in diameter) are made of. From the touch, I first thought plastic but from the sound they make when dropped on a hard surface (and I dropped them a lot, or rather: they kept rolling off the black tile I tried to put them on, so in the end, I fixated them with modelling clay), I'd say glass. And the more I dropped them, the more I was/am convinced it's glass. Their surface is frosted, with a "dented" (tiny, tiny, tiny dents) texture. And when light hits them at a certain angle, they display a nice iridescent colour effect which drew me to them in the first place.

No coloured lights this time because the beads have the colours "in them", so to speak. The smaller glass bead is of a blueish-grey, also slightly iridescent colour, with a partly metal-vaporized (I'm not sure about the correct term here) surface, and of course, its facets nicely reflect all the colours of the things around it (and believe me, there were/are many things). I was also a little shocked at how scratched the (new!) faceted bead already was but I guess it was touched by many hands and rolled around many times in the small ceramic bowl at the shop before I bought it, so that explains the scratches.

The two bigger beads are semi-translucent white, and the colours that emerge when, as mentioned above, light hits them at the right angle, are a bright, electric blue with hints of yellow, green, and purple.

Light sources were natural sunlight from the window to the right, natural white light from my LED photo lamp from above (and slightly from the left), and bright white light from my handheld LED flashlight, set on "spot", from the front. The final image is made of 15 focus-stacked Raws combined in Helicon Focus.

HMM, Everyone, and have a nice week ahead!

P.S. I'm busy today and will catch up with you tonight.

Zurich at night.

See........ if you stand still long enough in one of TMK's night shots you will be seen. For those that can't seem to stay in one place, well they just vanish into a blended digital world.

Hope all my friends and contacts on flickr are having as good a week as I am.

Formerly the site of an old infirmary, Mary Bartelme Park is a 2.71 acre park in the Near West Side Community Area that features elements combining a sense of history with modern, innovative design. Three strong, diagonal paths intersect in this one-block park to create distinct, programmed zones. These zones include a fountain plaza, a children’s play area, a sunken dog park, an open lawn area, a viewing hill and enclosed seating area.

At the fountain plaza, park patrons are greeted with five stainless steel gates at the northwest entry acting as a gateway to the park. Using only three gallons a minute, each of the gates emit a fine mist of vaporized water on hot Chicago days, cooling off families while immersing the area in a cloud.

Fumarole di Fosso Pisano.

"A fumarole (or fumerole - the word ultimately comes from the Latin fumus, "smoke") is an opening in a planet's crust, often in areas surrounding volcanoes, which emits steam and gases such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride, and hydrogen sulfide. The steam forms when superheated water vaporizes as its pressure drops when it emerges from the ground. The name solfatara, from the Italian solfo, "sulfur" (via the Sicilian language - compare to the volcano Solfatara), is given to fumaroles that emit sulfurous gases."

Awoke the other morning to find a heavy blanket of frost glistening in the intense rays of the sun. Grabbed my camera and headed out into the woods in hope of a photo but mostly just to marvel at the transformation. Before my eyes the extensive frost was being condensed down to tiny water droplets. On the sunny side of branches and trees, the water was actually vaporizing into steam, so hot was the sun. The scene took on a mystical quality that I knew would last only moments. I have learned to shoot quick when the photo is dependent on a certain sun angle. I zoomed in on some nearby droplets and a wonderful bokeh erupted in the background.

I love simple lines and shapes. Macro photography allows us to easily get the simple forms into composition.

Wish you a great Tuesday!

May all the sadness and sorrows be vaporized after condensing into tears.

We have rain again in Vancouver.

Have a good Monday everyone!

Körperwelten sind seit 1996 bestehende Wanderausstellungen plastinierter, überwiegend menschlicher Körper. Initiator der Ausstellungen ist der Anatom Gunther von Hagens. Die Ausstellungen sind auf Grund der Exponate umstritten.

Verfahren:

Das Verfahren läuft prinzipiell in vier Stufen ab:

Der erste Schritt ist die Fixierung in Formalin oder farberhaltenden Zubereitungen, welche das Gewebe stabilisieren und dadurch die Schrumpfung minimieren. Außerdem verhindert die Fixierung den Zerfall des Gewebes bei einer eventuell erforderlichen Präparation. Diese dient zur Freilegung und damit Darstellung bestimmter Strukturen mit Skalpell und Pinzette. Präparate für die („primäre“) Scheibenplastination werden jetzt auf einer Bandsäge oder mit einer anderen Schneidemaschine zerschnitten.

Bei dem sich anschließenden Gefrieraustausch und der Entfettung wird dem Präparat in einem −25 °C kalten Aceton-Bad das Gewebewasser entzogen. Das Wasser gefriert, das Aceton löst erst das Wasser, dann gegebenenfalls bei Raumtemperatur das Fett heraus. Bei Bedarf wird noch gründlicher mit Dichlormethan entfettet, welches einen höheren Dampfdruck als Aceton hat. Wasser und Fett sind nun durch Aceton ersetzt.

Der dritte Schritt und der eigentliche Kern der Plastination ist die forcierte Imprägnierung. Hierbei wird das Präparat in einer Kunststofflösung unter Vakuum gesetzt. Durch den hohen Dampfdruck beginnt das Aceton zu sieden und „perlt“ aus dem Präparat heraus. Dadurch entsteht ein Volumendefizit, sodass das gleiche Volumen an Kunststoff ins Gewebe hineingesaugt wird. Das Präparat ist danach vollkommen mit Kunststoff durchtränkt und wird eventuell in die anatomisch richtige Stellung gebracht.

Der letzte Schritt ist die Härtung. Die Kunststoffe werden jetzt je nach Kunststoffart durch Wärme, UV-Licht oder gasförmigen Härter auspolymerisiert. Bei der „sekundären Scheibenplastination“ wie auch bei der „Tissue Tracing Technique“ erfolgen entscheidende Bearbeitungsschritte nach Abschluss der Härtung. Komplett plastinierte Körperteile, dicke Scheiben oder Blöcke werden bei der sekundären Scheibenplastination in dünne parallele Scheiben geschnitten oder bei der Tissue Tracing Technique gezielt so geschliffen und zugeschnitten, dass anatomische Strukturen in Scheibenplastinaten verfolgt werden können.

Body Worlds (German title: Körperwelten) is a traveling exposition of preserved human bodies and body parts. In this exhibit what is enticed to see are real skinned humans and other anatomical structures of the body that have gone through the process of plastination. Plastination is “a process in which unite subtle anatomy and modern polymer chemistry.”Plastination is a process that a German man named Gunther Von Hagens created in the late 70’s in which the body is preserved to keep it from decaying.

Process:

There are four steps in the standard process of plastination: fixation, dehydration, forced impregnation in a vacuum, and hardening. Water and lipid tissues are replaced by curable polymers. Curable polymers used by plastination include silicone, epoxy and polyester-copolymer.

The first step of plastination is fixation. Fixation, frequently utilizing a formaldehyde based solution, serves two functions. Dissecting the specimen to show specific anatomical elements can be time consuming. Formaldehyde or other preserving solutions help prevent decomposition of the tissues. They may also confer a degree of rigidity. This can be beneficial in maintaining the shape or arrangement of a specimen. A stomach might be inflated or a leg bent at the knee for example.

After any necessary dissections have taken place, the specimen is then placed in a bath of acetone. Under freezing conditions, the acetone draws out all the water and replaces it inside the cells.

In the third step, the specimen is then placed in a bath of liquid polymer, such as silicone rubber, polyester or epoxy resin. By creating a vacuum, the acetone is made to boil at a low temperature. As the acetone vaporizes and leaves the cells, it draws the liquid polymer in behind it, leaving a cell filled with liquid plastic.

The plastic must then be cured with gas, heat, or ultraviolet light, in order to harden it.

A specimen can be anything from a full human body to a small piece of an animal organ, and they are known as 'plastinates'.[citation needed] Once plastinated, the specimens and bodies are further manipulated and positioned prior to curing (hardening) of the polymer chains.

Two silver spheres sliced across the setting sun. They gleamed—once, twice—then banked hard, descending fast.

Adrienne looked up, breath catching. “Kayla,” she hissed.

Kayla whirled and yanked her behind a crumbling overhang, barely wide enough to shield them.

Two orb-like crafts hovered overhead—smooth, polished, and silent. Their descent was slow, calculated.

The air thickened, tingling with static electricity. Adrienne’s skin prickled.

“I think they see us,” she whispered. “I can feel them.”

“Yeah,” Kayla murmured. “Be ready to jump. But I want to know if they land—and where.”

The silver spheres drifted in tight formation, circling deliberately. Adrienne and Kayla adjusted within the shadows, staying low, eyes locked on the sky.

“They’re searching for something,” Adrienne said, her voice tight.

Kayla’s eyes narrowed. “If they weren’t… they’d have touched down. They’re scanning.”

Adrienne swallowed.

“They’re hovering—again. Directly above.”

Kayla shifted. “Jump! To the shelter!”

Adrienne didn’t move. “No. Not without you.”

Kayla’s eyes flicked toward the road. “The soldiers have seen them.”

Sudden movement near the trucks. Activity exploded around the vehicles—shouts, A burst of gunfire split the air—the bark of the .50-caliber machine gun and tracer rounds zipping through the darkened sky.

Then a thunderous—CRACK, CRACK, CRACK—so loud it felt like the sky split. The girls flinched, instincts taking over, clamping hands over their ears.

Instantly there were three intense explosions—blinding—followed by seismic booms. The ground trembled.

Adrienne gasped.

The trucks—gone. Vaporized leaving deep smoldering craters and a scatter of ash.

Less intense explosions followed as the orbs hovered, picking off soldiers and reptilians trying to flee.

The orbs rapidly circled once, then let loose a barrage—repeatedly the thunderous CRACKs from the orb’s energy weapon. White-hot blasts peppering the hidden entrance and the entire top of the mound, detonations strobing in rapid waves. The mound erupted. Debris rained down as the girls ducked, shielding their heads, dust choking the air.

When the chaos stilled, where the entrance had been was a vast, gaping crater. Multiple large craters pocketed the top of the mound and the center had collapsed inward.

The orbs hovered in place as the dust settled. Then—they shot straight up and vanished.

Adrienne stared into the settling dust, barely able to speak. “Oh my god… What did we just witness?”

Kayla her voice brittle. “That was the entrance. No doubt. But now…”

She didn’t finish. She didn’t need to.

Whatever the trucks came for… was dust now.
