A captivating telescopic view of a vibrant red sunset over Portsmouth, UK, on April 17th. The Sun appears large and distorted near the horizon, casting a golden glow on the calm sea. The city skyline is silhouetted against the intense colors of the sky. The image raises the question of whether volcanic dust enhanced the sunset's dramatic hues.

Sir Isaac Newton's Tree outside Trinity College, Cambridge.
Well, not exactly, a tree grown from a graft of the original in his mothers garden, in Shropshire. Where he sat and pondered his ideas on Gravity.
