Pleiades, the Seven Sisters, is a nearby cluster of young stars. This was taken on a clear night, so why the clouds? The cluster is passing through the Taurus Molecular Cloud, the nearest star-forming region to Earth.
37 minutes of total exposure time at 135mm on my Sony a7 IV.

It blows my mind that I can just point my camera at the sky and take a picture of a nebula, or another galaxy, or another planet. Space is so cool.
Anyway, here’s the California Nebula taken from my backyard a few nights ago.

I’m not really jiving with the way Bluesky handles its Following feed. It aggressively reloads if I dare do something else on my phone for a few minutes.
Am I missing something? It seems like there’s not a good way to browse the chronological posts of people I follow.

All three of the main ligers from Zoids: Genesis.
All three shot with a Helios 44M lens.
If you could only pilot one of the Genesis Ligers, which would you choose?

You want my honest, spiciest Star Wars takes? Here’s one:
I enjoyed The Rise of Skywalker. In a perfect world I’d prefer a do-over, but I can enjoy it for what it is.
I genuinely love the “Rey Skywalker” thing.
The Sith Eternal concept and fleet are neat. Dorito Tie FTW.
Adam Driver.

It’s very hard to tell if I’m just getting old and grumpy, or if AI is destroying my enthusiasm for technology.
