Berries in Winter / ...........................................................................finished in GIMP
the starkness of winter reveals my preferences: color, dappled light, warmth, and sunshine. but winter doesn't cater to my preferences. it delivers its own beauty: textures, muted tones, rawness. it's like the craggy places in myself i haven't yet embraced. but on this dull, gray morning i made a different choice: i took a long walk with winter (and with myself); i embraced the cragginess and found warmth in surprising places.

Winter Lights Festival at Canary Wharf, an annual event held to brighten the long winter nights. The images reflect the interactive and immersive nature of the festival, with its array of light installations that invite participation and evoke a sense of wonder. The festival, known for transforming the business district into an enchanting landscape of luminosity and creativity, becomes a playground for visitors of all ages. The vibrant atmosphere is palpable even through these stills, as spectators become an integral part of the exhibition, interacting with the light art and capturing memories. The event draws photographers and enthusiasts alike, all eager to witness and document the magical interplay between light, art, and the urban environment.
My first sunset capture of what is officially winter, although you would never guess with the mild weather. 3 exposures in RAW at +/-2ev shot hand-held converted to TIFFs and exported to Photomatix for tonemapping and final processing in Lightroom 3.5.
Just a dusting of snow on the cusp of the winter solstice. I bought my Christmas tree yesterday from the man parked with his headlights on in the shadow of the tall tree with the naked branches.

The monster winter storm that brought icing to the U.S. southeast moved northward along the Eastern Seaboard and brought snow, sleet and rain from the Mid-Atlantic to New England on February 13. A new image from NOAA's GOES satellite showed clouds associated with the massive winter storm stretch from the U.S. southeast to the northeast.
Data from NOAA's GOES-East satellite taken on Feb. 13 at 1455 UTC/9:45 a.m. EST were made into an image by NASA/NOAA's GOES Project at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. The clouds and fallen snow data from NOAA's GOES-East satellite were overlaid on a true-color image of land and ocean created by data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer or MODIS instrument that flies aboard NASA's Aqua and Terra satellites.The image showed that the clouds associated with the storm were blanketing much of the U.S. East Coast.
At 3:11 a.m. EST, a surface map issued by the National Weather Service or NWS showed the storm's low pressure area was centered over eastern North Carolina. Since then, the low has continued to track north along the eastern seaboard. By 11 a.m. EST, precipitation from the storm was falling from South Carolina to Maine, according to National Weather Service radar.
By 11 a.m. EST, the Washington, D.C. region snow and sleet totals ranged from 3" in far eastern Maryland to over 18" in the northern and western suburbs in Maryland and Virginia. NWS reported that snow, sleet and rain were still falling and more snow is expected as the back side of the low moves into the region.
The New York City region remained under an NWS Winter Storm Warning until 6 a.m. on Friday, February 14 and the National Weather Service expects minor coastal impacts Thursday into Friday afternoon.
New England was also being battered by the storm. At 10:56 a.m. EST, Barnstable, Mass. on Cape Cod was experiencing rain and winds gusting to 28 mph. An NWS wind advisory is in effect for Cape Cod until 7 p.m. EST.
Further north, Portland, Maine was experiencing heavy snow with winds from the northeast at 6 mph. The National Weather Service in Gray, Maine noted "Significant snowfall is likely for much of western Maine and New Hampshire as this storm passes by. There will be a mix or changeover to sleet and freezing rain over southern and coastal sections tonight...before all areas end as a period of snow Friday (Feb. 14) morning."
On February 13 at 10 a.m. EST, NOAA's National Weather Service noted "An abundance of Atlantic moisture getting wrapped into the storm will continue to fuel widespread precipitation...which should lift through the Mid-Atlantic States and Northeast Thursday into Friday. A wide swath of heavy snow accumulations are expected with this storm...but air [moving] off the warmer ocean water should change snow over to rain along the coastal areas. Also...a narrow axis of sleet and freezing rain will be possible within the transition zone...which is expected to set up near the I-95 corridor."

GOES satellites provide the kind of continuous monitoring necessary for intensive data analysis. Geostationary describes an orbit in which a satellite is always in the same position with respect to the rotating Earth. This allows GOES to hover continuously over one position on Earth's surface, appearing stationary. As a result, GOES provide a constant vigil for the atmospheric "triggers" for severe weather conditions such as tornadoes, flash floods, hail storms and hurricanes.

When I having a winter walk in the park with my loved one. Loved how everyone came together thanks to the recent snowfall.
True Dutch winter sceneries!
When this aircraft parked, the door opened, a flight attendant stepped onto the stairs bent down grabbed a handful of snow, made a snowball and threw it. Probably her first time.
This is bit of a quick grab shot from today while waiting for the sunset, but I wanted to share it to show you the beautiful white sand beaches of Lofoten Islands.
Lofoten Islands is really a truly stunning place with massive granite mountains and sandy beaches. I don't think I can get tired of coming here.
If it wasn't for the snowy mountains, it definitely looks like a warm, sunny summer's day here.

The winter sky at night over the Lovell Telescope at Jodrell Bank Observatory. The constellation of Orion, the Hyades and Pleiades clusters, Jupiter and the Moon are visible. Taken on the first of two Introduction to Astrophotography sessions this winter.
A beautiful day after a heavy snow storm.
I was just lucky enough to catch the right time before the lucid cristals started to melt from the trees.

Canis Major/Minor, Orion, Monoceros, part of Gemini, a couple meteors, and part the winter Milky Way. How many Messiers do you see? Any NGCs (I see at least one)?
