Richmond Bridge is a lasting symbol of Tasmania’s convict heritage. The sandstone arches of Australia’s oldest known large stone arch bridge have spanned Tasmania’s Coal River since its completion in 1825. Built by convict labour, the Richmond Bridge reminds us of the forced migration that contributed to the development of Australian society. Richmond Bridge was included in the National Heritage List on 25 November 2005.

Please View Large Lesley and I are currently down in Sussex and went for a walk yesterday over to The Seven Sisters. It was late afternoon with little light left and the sun was going down quickly. This was the seascape from the Seven Sisters as we knew we had to go yesterday in view of Storm Force forecasts today. Nikon D300 / Sigma 24-70mm
No, this shot of a 1942 Supermarine Spitfire wasn’t taken during World War II – because that was many years before my time! It was taken in June this year during a flying day at Temora Aviation Museum in the Riverina region of Outback New South Wales. The Mark XVI Spitfire, registration FU-P, is one of two at the museum (the other is Grey Nurse, a Mark VIII variant, registration RG-V) and they are the only airworthy Spits in the country. I shot this image above the heads of the crowd of several hundred people as the historic fighter taxied across the apron on the morning of 6 June, the anniversary of the D-Day landings. The pilot was Guy Bourke and if you’re wondering why he’s peering out the right-hand side of the cockpit, there’s a simple reason. The monoplane fighters of the era (tail draggers, as they are called in some circles) were configured to sit low on their tail wheels, with their noses high in the air to keep those huge propeller blades off the ground when landing and taking off. Wartime pilots had to keep looking out of both sides of the cockpit to ensure there were no obstacles in their path, such as fuel bowsers, other aircraft or even ground crew. The angle at which this shot was taken actually shows you why pilots had no forward vision while taxiing. I do not crop, enhance or post-edit my images in any way. Shot without a tripod, using a Pentax K100D fitted with a Sigma 70-300mm lens. F8, 1/250 sec, ISO 200, focal length 300mm. Temora6June-8006
Cocoa is a male stray tabby that I rescued. I found him shivering in a doorway in January of 2006. He has a very strong personality, as the portrait suggests. In the end he moved out and went to the lady across the street. He got a better deal there because he’s the only cat, or animal for that matter, in the house. Cocoa is a survivor and opportunist. He has a broken tail and he’s been hit by a car, surviving and doing just fine thank you. He’s used up at least 6 of his nine lives. I’m a little miffed that he moved out, but then again I would too if I had to compete with a dog and another cat for the master’s attention.

This amazing wide band of aurora activity shimmered and danced in the night sky from horizon to horizon. It was dazzling! This Polar Aurora activity covered virtually the entire state of Alaska for three consecutive days, faintly visible in the daylight as well.

On Earth, the energetic particles that make aurora come from the geospace environment, the magnetosphere. These energetic particles are mostly electrons, but protons also make aurora. The electrons travel along magnetic field lines. The Earth’s magnetic field looks like that of a dipole magnet where the field lines are coming out and going into the Earth near the poles. The auroral electrons are thus guided to the high latitude atmosphere. As they penetrate into the upper atmosphere, the chance of colliding with an atom or molecule increases the deeper they go. Once a collision takes place, the atom or molecule takes some of the energy of the energetic particle and stores it as internal energy while the electron goes on with a reduced speed. The process of storing energy in a molecule or atom is called “exciting” the atom. An excited atom or molecule can return to the non-excited state (ground state) by sending off a photon, i.e. by making light.” ~ Making Light In Alaska, Canada, Norway, Finland or northern Russia, on a clear night, a greenish glow is often seen in the sky, known as the “Northern Lights.” / During magnetic storms, the glow may move southwards, and on occasion it can be seen in much of the US. It often appears as a glow on the horizon, like the glow preceding sunrise, and has therefore become known among scientists as “aurora borealis” (“aurora” for short), Latin for “northern dawn.” A similar phenomenon is also seen in southern polar regions. To an observer, an aurora is a fascinating spectacle, constantly moving and changing. It usually consists of many near-vertical greenish rays, forming long arcs and curtains, which stretch like ribbons across the sky, often from horizon to horizon. The green light of the aurora has a precisely defined colour in the spectrum (“narrow spectral line”). Such precise colours are usually the signatures of the atoms which emit them The green light of the aurora puzzled scientists for many years, since it fit no known element. It turned out to be produced by oxygen atoms, but under conditions that in our atmosphere only exist in the very rarefied upper levels. A red aurora, occasionally seen, arises at even greater heights and is also produced by electrons hitting oxygen.” Currently with 2022 Views
We love browsing RB and seeing all the amazing photography and thinking.. “Wow that should be in a magazine!” That is what this group is for: to spotlight and show off those kind of images.
We are striving towards a gallery full of gorgeous, magazine/book worthy photography. This means no snapshot type shots will be accepted. Please don’t be offended if your work is not accepted, just keep trying!!! :)
We do NOT have a limit on how many items you may have in the group gallery. Please do try to limit your submissions to 2 or 3 a day though to help out the moderators.
