Reflection and emission in the eye of the seagull by William Ostling

19 1

Full write-up here: theastroenthusiast.com/reflection-and-emission-in-the-eye...

This was a pretty fun image to process from the telescope live archives! Even though there wasn’t much data, with a lot of denoising I think most of the detail came through quite nicely. I’ve been honing a technique where I can process emission and reflection areas separately so that I can enhance reflection nebulae, and I think it turned out pretty well in this image! It isn’t by any means scientific, but it works to make pretty pictures.

IC 2177 is a region of nebulosity that lies along the border between the constellations Monoceros and Canis Major. It is a roughly circular H II region centered on the Be star HD 53367. The name Seagull Nebula is sometimes applied by amateur astronomers to this emission region, although it more properly includes the neighboring regions of star clusters, dust clouds and reflection nebulae.

Today's OARCB (old ass rivet counter boomer) mundane high sun, silver box, gravel pile, leaning, wirey wedgie. I must say I miss shooting the UP. Let me rectify that somewhat today. (My #1 New Year's resolution is to shoot more UP this year. Wish me luck!)

So the Wayback machine is set to September 13, 1992. The place, milepost 405, east of Hoya, Nevada on the UP's LA&SL. The time, 12:01pm. A railroad so boring and isolated no reasonable author will ever write a book on it. Not if they want to sell more than six copies.

I do wonder if that's the old right of way on the other side of the wash. Sadly I'm sure no one alive today can answer that question😥.

Please write to ricseet@gmail.com if you like a FREE copy of this picture. In return please donate any amount and to any charity of your choice. Just trying to do the little we can help to the needy. Thank you for your generosity!

Thank you for viewing and have a happy day.

When I visited my daughter on March 20 2011, my grandson, Aidan, was telling me about this bird with babies. I was excited and asked him to show me. He took me outside his home and pointed up - "there they are".

Wow - I saw how cute they were and grab my cam from the car.

Thank you Aidan!

Update: May10 2012

This pic is sold to Nat Geo for their coming book. Proceeds is going to charity.

The lady who bought the pic had a hard time tracking me down becos the person who downloaded this pic from my Flickr account without my knowledge, plastered this all over the internet and change my name from Ric Seet to Rik Seet. So no one can track the originator down. Now others are profiteering from this scam and here is the link to one such websites. You pay them to download my stolen pic:

pixdaus.com/under-her-wings-by-rik-seet-birds-aves-fauna-...

When I did a Rik Seet goggle search there are about 4 full pages of links to such websites !

www.google.com.sg/search?q=Rik Seet&ie=utf-8&oe=u...

This is one of the downside of the internet. To prevent such future mishaps, I have since disabled the download feature under Privacy & Settings. Base on the feedback this is not even safe. Additional advises is to add Watermarks and reduce file size to 800X800. From what I am hearing nothing is save on the net.

Thank you friends for your kind advise. .

Update: May13 2012

I managed to write to a few websites/blogs via email and FB.

1. A friend responded on FB and apologize for posting the pic on FB for Mother Day.

2. An Australian cyclist by the name of Craig plaster the pic for 2012 Mother Day. I wrote to inform him that the pic is my and he blocked me off immi'ly. Isn't that just great, steals your pic and ignores you!

3. What's even more interesting is Pixdaus.com has an option for you to complain if your are the owner of the intellectual property. Isn't this a laugh. I presume they believe they excuse themselves of any legal obligation in the eyes of the law by having this feature on their website! I have written to them and waiting for their reply.

Update June 1 2012

Today a caring Flickr friend brought to my attention that the above pic was stolen again and this pic was posted on Flickr. Wrote to the person to delete my picture which was done. Not a word of apology.

These people have no shame - steal other pictures and post it like theirs. Even took part in invites and participated at the various levels of award to claim credit for themselves.

here is the link if this shameful person and I have seen another couple of stolen pics as well becos they are too skillful for him. Even wrote to advise that these be remove. I am contacting the legal department of Yahoo in Singapore and making a few suggesting to them to apprehend such people.

Since then more Flickr friends have alerted me. I am now no more angry becos I have learnt to share and come to realized this picture brings great memories & joy to others. One guy wrote to request for a print becos he wanted to place it next to his Bible.

He said that it is "God's Gift To Nature"

Update June 4 2012

Great to see that couple of my Flickr friends have added water mark to their pic. Very creative as they take the trouble to strategically position the watermark . I will borrow this idea. Thanks guys!

Update Dec 17 2012

Nat Geo is now printing double the number of copies and has agreed to denote US$300/ to charity of my grandson choice - SPCA. Thank you Nat Geo.

Update Dec 25 2012

Today I received a very touching letter from a mother who requested this print. I am glad that a picture is worth a thousand words and holds special meaning and brings great joy.

So if you need a print please drop me a Flickr mail and your mailing address. Thank you.

My heart goes out to this special lady and this picture is my gift to her. Some of you are aware that my daughter was critically ill. In her own works she told me she nearly died in Oct. Now I rejoice becos she is making slow recovery ----. A small step at a time!

Hi Ric,

I have been searching for the photographer who took the absolutely beautiful photo of the colorful momma bird with it's babies under its wings. I've actually been praying I would find the original photographer. I won't get into the details, but for the last almost 2 years, I've been going through a really hard time with my health due to a horrible medical mistake that I suffered at the hands of a doctor. I will not let anyone tell me I am not going to get better. My husband and my son need me back. This picture holds such meaning for me...I've found it on other websites, which I am so sorry that people are stealing your work, and I have gone back to look at it a lot over the last several months. It brings me great comfort and the colors are just so beautiful and bright. I was wondering if it would be possible to buy a large print of it from you so that I can frame it and have it matted with a verse so I can look at it every day in my house. Would you mind letting me know if it's possible to buy a print from you? If so, what are the size proportions that you could print out for me? The place I want to hang it could handle an overall size of 24"x24" or 24"x28", which would be framed and matted with an inscription matted under it. Hopefully that description makes sense. Would you mind contacting back?

Update April 11 2016

Today i received a very comforting email from this lady and I thank her for helping mereach out to others who may need this pic becos of the sentimental/special meaning this pic means to them. For me this pic means a world to me bcos I am a dad to two precious daughters that I love dearly. No matter what -- I will always be there for them as long as I am on this good earth.

Hi Ric,

I must confess I posted your beautiful picture of the bird shielding her babies under her wings on a tweet and my FB page. I didn't take it from Flickr, I (wrongly) assumed it was in the public domain. Would you like me to remove it or would it be mutually agreeable to post a link to you for your credit and publicity? I am a solicitor working from home writing wills and trusts, hence the family theme, I have not tried to profit directly from the photo, just thought it was a nice image of caring. Sorry.

Kind regards,

Elizabeth

Thank you Elizabeth. There are lots of caring people on this good earth.

Last moments.... by Loren Bayn-Balamori

Taken at Sunny's studio. (Set: MINIMAL - Achelois Ruins Backdrop.) (Personal pose used.)

Dearest journal, it's me again Tythos.

A lot has happened since i last had time to write, so our friend mister Whisper told my friends an i we should go to school and learn some stuff about the weird buildings that sometimes show p after the ground shakes. so we did, getting there was hard, and required us to swim, we puts the door to a school in a lake? stupid magic people.

so we get in and there is this weird trapped room that sets us on fire and freezes us and stuff, it hurt a lot, so i shot an arrow at the machine in the middle, it broke and a big stone monster with horns came out.... oops, my fault. after we killed it i took it's horns, because stupid meanies don't deserve horns!

we finally make it to the school it's self. we are shown out rooms, they were weird and creepy, fun though, then some weird stuff happened, we were told to go to the fey wild, which sounded like lots of fun! but my friend Fredrick couldn't go, the door kept closing on him. so i used one of my special arrows to send him to the fey wild, cause i can do that some times. he came back and said there was an evil version of him that tried to kill him! how mean!

The teacher came in and asked what happened, so we told him, he didn't believe me, so i shot him! you know, to send him to the fey wild too, he was on fire when he came back, evil Frederick had friends this time and they beat mister teacher up! then he told me the fey wild is too dangerous and i'm not alot to use my banishing magic anymore. then sir Whisker used some of his weird brain magic on the teacher, i don't remember why, but the teacher didn't like that, so he punished the whole group with the job of recruiting more magic people.

We left the school and we about to start handing out the flyers, but Cassandra saw a bird and chased it! understandable, i do that sometimes too. it's fun! but when we caught up to her she was fighting a big lizard with five heads! there was a snake lady there too she wasn't very nice, she said Cassandra was competing in a contest, but it wasn't a fair contest and i hate cheaters! so i jumped in as did my other friends! i killed the lizard! Cassie called it a "hydra" then my bow did that weird thing it sometimes does and shot some weird beam at the snake lady, she froze up and fell to the ground. we tried to ask why she was being mean, but a bird landed near her and shot her with magic lightning and she died, how rude!

when we got back to the town there was a party! i love parties! there was dancing, and food and wine! and i fought and beat the towns toughest fighter in hand to head combat! then the party ended when some people from the school showed up, the magistrate he called himself was very nosy and snobby, Cassandra talked to him and then we all had to do something, he sat us down on the floor and said we would find out past selves, what does that mean?!?

So now we are all in this weird place, the city looks dead and it's super super spooky! i don't like it, we keep seeing these statues that show us visions of the past, before this city died, visions of people celebrating very bad things like enslaving my fellow wild folk, it was sad and scary! Cassie and i are the only ones who can see these weird black threads pulling us toward something. Sir Whisker is clearing the bath with his druid magic as i write this, i don't know what's waiting for us on the other side of this sickly wall of....wrong looking vines, but something tells me this is the last chance i'll get to write in you journal. i hope one day i'll get a chance to tell Io i don't hate her, but i always try to be better than her because she's my friend and the only one who can challenge me. i hope i get to see Oikos again! i don't want to be an adventurer anymore, i'm scared!

-Tythos Reed

THE WHISPER… CYCLAMEN by magda indigo

59 33

Don't write anything you can phone.

Don't phone anything you can talk.

Don't talk anything you can whisper.

Don't whisper anything you can smile.

Don't smile anything you can nod.

Don't nod anything you can wink.

quote by Earl Long

The cyclamen commonly sold by florists is Cyclamen persicum, which is frost-tender. Selected cyclamen cultivars can have white, bright pink, red or purple flowers. While flowering, florists' cyclamens should be kept below 20 °C (68 °F), with the night time temperatures preferably between 6.5 °C to 15 °C (44 °F to 59 °F).

Temperatures above 20 °C (68 °F) may induce the plant to go dormant.

Cyclamen are native to the Mediterranean region from Spain east to Iran, and also in northeast Africa south to Somalia.

Have a good day and thanks for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)

PEONY... ALA FLAMINGO… by magda indigo

About creativity, they write (amongst many other things): It is the ability to "think outside the box" ! I ask: WHAT BOX???? LOL

I must admit that as a 'creative',

1. being a night-person, my 'best' ideas mostly come after midnight!

2. it is an urge, not a choice... and

3. ... as soon as you have 'problems', however small, with client, family, health... the first thing to GO is: my creativity! So please, tee hee, do not upset me, he?

Characteristics of the creative personality:

Creative individuals have a great deal of energy, but they are also often quiet and at rest.

Creative individuals tend to be smart, yet also naive at the same time.

Creative individuals have a combination of playfulness and discipline, or responsibility and irresponsibility.

Creative individuals alternate between imagination and fantasy at one end, and rooted sense of reality at the other.

Creative people seem to harbour opposite tendencies on the continuum between extroversion and introversion.

Creative individuals are also remarkable humble and proud at the same time.

Generally, creative people are thought to be rebellious and independent.

Most creative persons are very passionate about their work, yet they can be extremely objective about it as well.

The openness and sensitivity of creative individuals often exposes them to suffering pain yet also a great deal of enjoyment.

I recognise myself COMPLETELY in this!

THANX for ALL your comments and visits, so appreciated.

Have a wonderful day, filled with love and beauty, M, (*_*)
