M81 (Bodes Galaxy). 11.6 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Ursa Major.
Taken in my back garden in Winchester, Hampshire tonight with #Dwarf3
Lovely. ⭐

First clear night in ages, so I popped into the garden and looked up for a bit. Hello NGC 1333!

This active little star-forming region is in Perseus, 1,000 light years away!

Chuffed to catch some of those wispy blue and orange details on my first go.

Season 1 episode 7 or #Paradise is one of the greatest hours of TV ever!! It’s like a standalone 5 star movie which can be watched in isolation and I urge you to do it, even if you don’t watch the rest of the series! Just wow! Sterling K Brown, James Marsden et al… 🤯

Can we all agree that Yahya Abdul-Mateen II is absolutely AMAZING? And he and Ben Kingsley… 😍.

Shall we all just binge watch Schitt’s Creek today? 😢

A couple weeks ago I had my first go at photographing the Pleiades! 🌌

The famous Seven Sisters (M45) - gorgeous hot blue stars in Taurus, ~440 light-years away, cosmic babies at ~100 million years old. ✨

Attempted my first nebula photograph!

California Nebula (NGC 1499). It’s a sprawling hydrogen emission nebula in Perseus, glowing red as it’s energised by the hot star Xi Persei.

Captured on @dwarflab #Dwarf3 in Winchester, Hampshire.

A great man once said (in a meeting I was in yesterday)… ‘Make your bed in the morning as a reward for your future self.’

Making progress!

Longer exposure and alignment with Earth's tilt helped me stack 336 images with 30-second exposure each.

A billion stars in one shot - mind blown!

Hi Carol.

Is it me, or is there actually someone smoking a cigarette in the #Cocacola Christmas advert? 😳

Okay. #pluribus is just too good. The story, script and acting is off the scale. Also, I love how Vince shoots. Taking time and letting the story breathe. Amazing.

It’s never been more important to stay tuned in | Margaret Sullivan I’m far from certain that staying engaged will make a difference. What I do know is that if we all tune out, there’s no hope at all

We all know that January is about 30 days too long so can we all just go back to bed today please?

Is there not a left leaning (centralist even) tech billionaire to balance this whole shit show out?

So, #Instagram have changed their grid format to a portrait format with no opt out or prior warning.

Thanks.

Now I have hundreds of square posts that look crap and loads more ready to post that now need re-sizing.

My ‘discover’ timeline on threads is full of Star Wars, Dogs, F1, Lord Of The Rings, Theatre, snow pics and news (not all nice news but actual news).
My ‘for you’ feed on Twitter is rammed with blue ticks up in arms about a name, MAGA, Musk tweets and people celebrating an assassination in NY.

Hey #BlueSky… did we ever find out what she actually looked like with a chimney on her?

It’s a 5.30am coffee kind of Sunday.

Anyone else up early for the Las Vegas Grand Prix?

#F1 #formula1 #LasVagas

A lot of work and research from some mighty fine folk went into these new resources.

Please use them.

:-)

Taking me a while to find everyone (but finding new people along the way) but yes. I’m opening the app more and more.

Testing out BlueDeck... deck.blue

Anyone else using it for scheduling?

#BlueDeck #BlueSky

Used it this morning. Worked well for most but does require a bit of manual checking to make sure it is the same person/account.

Wow! This very cool to see in real time…
