Through the Ether - Through my storm
There is nothing left to hold me
All I fall - Into my Soul...."

Just a bonus triptych taken after a couple of glasses of wine and handheld whilst sitting enjoying our own bbq outside our caravan. Our wonderful Red Arrow display team were putting on a show at the G7 summit . They were only at the next beach along and I correctly guessed that we would get at least a sight of them so my camera was lying on the table in readiness. You can just make out part of the number 7 left by the vapour trails.. Was nice to experience actually and a bbq with a bit of a difference so why not take a few photos....another memory after all :)

As I rode into Hameln on my motorbike, I saw the nuclear power plant from afar. It was a cold and very clear November day. There were no clouds except the enormous plume of vapour that rises from the plant's cooling towers. I simply had to take this picture...

Jetstar Airways Pty Ltd, operating as Jetstar, is an Australian low-cost airline (self-described as value-based) headquartered in Melbourne. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Qantas, created in response to the threat posed by airline Virgin Blue. Jetstar is part of Qantas' two brand strategy of having Qantas Airways for the premium full-service market and Jetstar for the low-cost market. Jetstar carries 8.5% of all passengers travelling in and out of Australia. The airline operates an extensive domestic network as well as regional and international services from its main base at Melbourne Airport, using a mixed fleet of the Airbus A320 family and the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Like its Qantas parent, Jetstar competes with Virgin Australia. Qantas, through the Jetstar Group, also has stakes in sister airlines Jetstar Asia Airways and Jetstar Japan. 62841
A larger caterpillar (on the same acer) than I posted the other day. The smaller one is still there and survived yesterday's deluge. I Think this one has a little more detail. Should repay viewing large if you have the time.
I took this shot on the way to our cottage in the country here in Germany. The car was moving quite fast at the time and I took lots of shots with my iPhone through the window of the car… luckily I found this one amongst them!!
As I was sitting in the backyard the other evening, I noticed this vapour trail during the last ray of light and thought it would make for a great shot.

Contrails or vapour trails are line-shaped clouds produced by aircraft engine exhaust or changes in air pressure, typically at aircraft cruising altitudes several miles above the Earth's surface. Contrails are composed primarily of water, in the form of ice crystals...l have always been fascinated by them but never took a photo of them ..
Taken in Lichfield, Staffordshire.
Thank you to everyone who views, faves or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.
Was certain I was never going to come across an interesting bug until I got my reward for helping to water our neighbours plants when I spied this hairy feller!
It’s a vapourer moth apparently after a bit of an image search, looks more impressive in this part of its life cycle as the moth form is less impressive. There has been a massive decline in moth and butterfly populations of late because of over use of insecticide and even light pollution issues. We’ve been trying to leave a chunk of our garden ‘wild’ at least that’s my excuse!
MANY THANKS FOR YOUR KIND COMMENTS AND FAVS........TAKE A LOOK AT MY PHOTOSTREAM, FOR GENERAL PHOTOS OF NATURE AND WILDLIFE
This was one of a number feeding on a ceanosis in a neighbour's garden. The adult male of the species is easily recognisable by their rich reddish brown forewings. The females are virtually wingless and are unable to fly and remain close to the papal cocoon. They are found throughout Europe, temperate Asia, Siberia and the USA. As with most hairy caterpillars, the bristles are connected to venomous glands and function as a defensive barrier to would-be predators and cause irritation to the skin. They feed on the foliage of various trees and shrubs.

An Air France Boeing 777 -228 (er) flying at 37,000 feet and travelling at 472 knots coming from Tokyo and going home to Paris , all useless information really but it does give the shot identity . Taken for the one shot a day 2023 group and just to see how the new Sig handled such a shot .
Interesting vapour trails from the propeller tips - it was a very humid day. Note how the spacing of the rings gets closer as the plane speeds up.
It's that time of year again. It's rare for a year to go by without finding a vapourer or rusty tussock moth caterpillar in the garden. This one is on a Japanese anemone leaf.

2009. This one caused a bit of a stir when I first did it. Surprisingly simple to paint, maybe only took a couple of hours to paint. I remember Berst walking over while I was working on it and he was like "are you going to put and outline on this?" and I was like "no!" and he was like "hmmm, I dunno...". After I was finished he saw the vision and agreed it worked.
