    … a good friend of mine has been immersing himself in astro photography the last year and is beginning to get some amazing results … and the quality of his images has been improving every time he goes out and shoots. This image is a shot of the Orion Nebula, the closest star forming region to us in our galaxy; it is in the constellation of Orion. The cloud is approximately 25 light years across and about 1300 light years from earth. The red in the cloud is from ionized hydrogen gases.

    This single image is from an extended shoot and is comprised of 300 individual images with a 15 second exposure per image or 75 minutes total. The camera is mounted on a star tracker which keeps the same focus point even though the earth is in constant rotational movement. He is currently processing an image that is comprised of 1000 15 second exposure photographs. The technique involves stacking the digital images one on top of the other and allowing a computer program put it all together. Very cool stuff.

    When I was working on the image for tonight, I noticed something that Rich had missed … interstellar travelers were in the image and they look strangely like that little creature that lives with me … wow! Great capture, Rich! Fun stuff.

    Another beautiful day just ended and methinks today will be a good one too. Focus on the important things … smile, breathe and remember how fortunate you are to be here … no guarantees, but at least for this moment, you are alive.

    Celebrate life … while you can.

    Thou great God, uphold me also in the lonely hour; and though I fall in the din and the dust of the world, resurrect Thou me. Even to the last, turn my hands to kindly service, and part my lips in gleeful songs of love. And in the softly falling dark, when all grows strangely still, may I be glad to have trod the sweet green earth, and known the tender touch of love. Yet may I depart with joy, as one who journeys home at evening.
    — Max Ehrmann

    If I Were Curtis Sliwa
    By Tommy Acosta

    One of my guilty little pleasures is imagining what I would do if I was in someone else’s shoes, especially politicians. In this essay I would love to jump into the shoes of Curtis Sliwa, a former New York City vigilante who founded the Guardian Angels and is now running as a Republican for mayor of his city.
