“Streaks of psychedelic colors show the passage of cities below the International Space Station (ISS), airglow in Earth’s atmosphere and the circling motion of stars in this stunning new image from Expedition 31 Flight Engineer Don Pettit.

Pettit created the image by combining 18 long-exposure digital images taken with a camera mounted inside the ISS on March 16, 2012. Because of the limitations of digital imaging sensors, multiple exposures are needed to get such an image.

“My star trail images are made by taking a time exposure of about 10 to 15 minutes,” said Pettit. “However, with modern digital cameras, 30 seconds is about the longest exposure possible, due to electronic detector noise effectively snowing out the image. To achieve the longer exposures I do what many amateur astronomers do: I take multiple 30-second exposures, then ‘stack’ them using imaging software, thus producing the longer exposure.”

The bright blotches lined up at the lower portion of the image are lightning flashes within storm clouds.”

I’m in love with this photograph.

Junip - Without You (by LeaheyHoo)

So so so so so great.

Well deserving as my #1 song of 2011.

Junip - Without You This song feels like one long exhale.

Weird!

Both my and Bruce’s birthdays are anomalies. Makes sense.

I firmly believe that the late-September spike (of which I am a part) is absolutely attributable to Christmas/New Years hanky-panky sessions.

Mom (by Steelopus)

Born December 1, 1945 in Teramo, province of Teramo, Abruzzo, Italy.

The date of this photo is unknown. My guess would be sometime in 1952-1955.

Life has rarely been easy for that little girl, but she’s been strong through everything and I’m a better person because of the struggles that she’s faced and overcome.

That laugh…

It’s hard to believe that it’s been three years since we lost Jamie.

Now and then I’ll visit her blog to remind myself that life is what you make of it; she truly made the most of her time with us and she’ll always be missed.

If you haven’t done so already, you should probably go ahead and wish Mary a very happy birthday!

The Cars - “It’s All I Can Do”

This is just a simple song; a wonderfully simple, great song.

I can pick up a guitar and give you a veritable endless stream of new riffs but
I’ve never been much of a lyricist and
~~it’s been almost exactly 11 years since I last wrote a set of lyrics (May 19, 2001)~~.
As of last night, it’s time to reset that timer.
It didn’t come easily and I don’t know if more will follow.
But still, I’m happy to have that monkey off my back today.

This long exposure captures a rainbow at night… illuminated by the light of the moon. Gorgeous.

I was introduced to Andrew’s photos about 5 years ago when we were both members of a now-defunct photography forum. His work is consistently impressive.

Apparently the local hoodlums have found the back of the building where I work. They suck at graffiti.
