See you later, archangel. I'm heading out.
Oh? Where to lord?
My favorite place on Earth! Maybe the cosmos!
I know where that is!
I've got a spot all picked out, right on the beach.
Cool.
I might even have a few of the old crowd come visit.
Yeah?
Zeus, Thor, you know, those guys. I might convince Aphrodite to come if I butter her up enough.
She's a cutie!
Totally. But the most important thing I gotta bring. . .
Let me guess: sand toys?
Keee-rectamundo! Can't forget them.
We all have our spiritual priorities, don't we lord?
We do. Some of which are even worth mentioning.

Seelenzucker ♥️

Lost

On this dusty hillside
Every sign I see says 'Lost'
Placed there long ago
Not just meant for me,
Set in bold and
Written over
Where 'Home'
Used to be.
But this was never
Home to me.

Stanley, peel me a grape.
Would you like it with a glass of bubbly, Edna?
That sounds lovely.
Do you need anything else?
Well, you could tell the sun to stop moving.
I'll get right on it.
That would be perfect.

Heavy Weather in South Dakota

nobody@ipernity.com (Robert Swanson) — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 15:55:27 +0000

Robert Swanson has posted:

We were awakened by the weather radio warning a few nights ago. The rain had passed, and when we looked out, we saw a huge lightning display in the sky (no ground strikes, thank you).

This video is made up of phone video, combined with selected stills of actual cloud-to-cloud lightning bolts.

They flashed so quickly, that I was able to isolate only one frame (50 fps) for most of the bolts.

Processed with kdenlive, ffmpeg, and GIMP.

Last night, we were awakened by our weather radios squacking about thunderstorms.

Around 0030 (central time) we looked to the south, and the entire sky was lit up.

I used the Panasonic Lumix GX85 in video mode. It was running 50 frames per second, and many of the lightning flashes filled only one frame.

A video that contains this, and other captured stills.

This is a frame capture, cropped to square in GIMP.

Best to view on a black background.

Mist covers everything I know

My name matters not.

Until dawn,

Green Flash During 2016 Pacific Ocean Cruise

nobody@ipernity.com (Robert Swanson) — Mon, 04 May 2020 21:52:11 +0000

Robert Swanson has posted:

We've had the pleasure of seeing a number of "green flash" events, including my wife having seen a "green flash sunrise".

Most of the time, we were unable to photograph these events. In this case, we were crossing the North Pacific in October 2016, and had our cameras ready.

For the Sunday Challenge, I figure that there is a LOT of fluid in the photo, primarily the Pacific Ocean.

Lanai Sunset

Robert Swanson has posted:

We lived on Maui for 10 years. During that time, we lived in a house facing east. So we saw (and photographed) a lot of sunrises, some of them other-worldly.

However, we rarely saw any sunsets on Maui. Many visitors to the island rave about the magnificent views they get on the west side of the island.

Well, we DID get a few sunset photos, primarily while visiting friends on the other side.

This is a sunset over the island of Lana'i.

We took hundreds (and more) of photos of the amazing sunrises we saw from our Maui house.

The road up to Haleakala makes an illuminated "snake" during this lovely sunrise. Taken in 2005.
