A favourite spot. Seemed strange without the whitecaps

Looks like an OTSG to me, 25 mmBtu/hr? This is from a running 50 mmBtu/hr ...

not a new image. Hawk moths used to frequent our front garden but we only saw a few this year. I think our old cat killed or chased them all away.

Outrageous

X100t f8.0 250 ISO640 - The park has been closed due to a severe ice storm. However I ventured out on a whim, and found the side iron gate open; and I wandered in. Seeing the broken tree limbs scattered at the base of nearly every beautiful tree was challenging. New life for next season. On my list was this church sign I have driven by (above image) - it's Outrageous.

A summer capture of the T.A. Moulton Barn in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. Shot with an A7R II and ZEISS Batis 25 f/2. Just one exposure and some editing in post. I'm not very experienced with astrophotography.

According to Wiki:

The green heron (Butorides virescens) is a small heron of North and Central America. Butorides is from Middle English butor "bittern" and Ancient Greek -oides, "resembling", and virescens is Latinfor "greenish".[2]

Someone back in time must have had color vision issues when naming these birds. 😏

Thanks @stillcrazyman

Very cool.

The photo I posted is actually a fired reboiler in a polypropylene distillation process.

With the Leica hanging off her left shoulder. Using a phone in this instance is just wrong.

Maybe that is where the Ode comes in.

Well spotted! Presumably the phone was the quickest way to put the scene on social media but it makes for a fun picture

Decided to rework the 'Tractor in the Hay' shot as B & W.

Oh so fun and oh so sad at the same time.
