"Solid Ground"—Delta Junction, Alaska. This photo is the April page of my 2027 Awesome Auroras calendar, which launches on Friday, October 9 at 9 AM Alaska time.

Bright green aurora spreading across the sky with deep red above it, seen over the far shore of a frozen lake near Delta Junction, Alaska, with a few distant lights along the treeline.

New commission finished!! This portrait was requested by the wonderfully lovely Ida Tsang. I don’t know what the Alpaca is called, but I’ve named her Ida Ratheryouhadnt.

Ida likes scarfed herring, inviting people she meets on holiday to come and watch a slideshow of her everyday life, and doing blow-offs that should like a duck attempting to put on a turtleneck jumper on a grumpy goose.

I’ve obviously drawn this one in my ultra-realistic style, so usual reminder that my portrait is the image on the right. Review from the customer: ‘I was thinking this portrait kind of draws itself. Unfortunately it looks like the dog has literally tried to draw itself….’

Autumnal forest floor. Norwich VT, September 2026 #ECK #Photography #PhotographersOfBluesky #Scape #Nature #ColorADay #RedWed

This image shows a red leaf nestled among decaying woodchips and flat, yellowish brown fungi. The leaf appears just right and above center, and we have a lovely view of the texture of its red surface interspersed with yellowish veins. Its surface is covered with water droplets from recent rain. It lies on a group of low, flat, yellow-brown fungi running from the upper left to lower right. We have a nice view of their mottled surfaces, and occasional hints of the gills on their undersides. To the upper right and lower left are scattered wood chips and in varying shades of dark brown and bluish black. The image is finishing by glimpses of other fungi in the upper right and lower left corners.

This is a photograph of the edge of one of Saturn's rings, looking down from above. Those spiky dark shapes are shadows. Shadows of giant towers of ice and dust grains clumped together that rise up to three *kilometres* above the 10-m thick rings.

A series of bands cross the image from left to right, brighter at the bottom and darkening towards the top. A band of empty space is at the top of the image. About a quarter down from the top is a complex pattern of jagged, spiky shadows cast onto the rings. The icy towers casting the shadows are seen here at a highly oblique angle.

VLT image of Arp 289, also known as NGC 3981. This image was captured as part of the ESO Cosmic Gems Program, which uses the Very Large Telescope to photograph beautiful objects in the southern skies when conditions don’t allow scientific observations to be made. Credit: ESO Source

The yellow core of a disrupted spiral galaxy is surrounded by irregular, translucent spiral arms. The inner part of the galaxy is seen at an angle, so that it appears oval-shaped rather than circular. Dark brown dust lanes and pink star forming regions cross a yellow haze of older stars. The faint blue arms unfurl from the center, like paint flung out of a spinning canvas. They are dotted with blue star clusters. The arms stretch out to the right of the frame. The black background of space is filled with foreground stars and tiny background galaxies.

This is gravitational lensing. Where the a bunch of galaxies are so, so massive they distort the fabric of spacetime itself, and bend the light from background galaxies billions of lightyears more distant.

From the source: "A massive galaxy cluster, made of many golden elliptical galaxies with the largest, brightest one in the centre. Heavily distorted orange galaxies appear all around the cluster, the largest concentrated in a large arc around the cluster's centre; these are images of very distant galaxies, created by gravitational lensing. A few galaxies are large and bluish-white in colour; bright, nearby stars are the same colour."

The valley of Botnsá near the Glymur waterfall seemed to be the epicenter of autumn color in Iceland with birch trees putting on quite the show. Glymur is the main attraction here, but this scene ended up being one of my favorites. #timothykeeneyphotography #photography #landscapephotography

A river with white water bends through a valley covered in birch trees with peak yellow and orange autumn leaves.

View from the base of the Gabriel Icefall near a small outflow stream. The glacier fans out where it leaves the geologic constriction of the mountain and cliffside. Taken on Saturday. In my Field Notes from the North: lwpetersen.substack.com/p/snow-glaci... #alaska #hiking #glacier #snow

A glacier spills down from a steep icefall between dark rocky cliffs and spreads out across the valley floor below, its surface covered in fresh snow and cut by a scatter of long, thin crevasses. At the top, the icefall is a jumble of broken blue-white seracs wedged beside a jagged rock peak on the left and a dark cliff face on the right. In the foreground, a small pool of gray meltwater sits among snow-covered rocks and gravel, with a large dark boulder at the bottom edge of the frame. The sky is blue with scattered white clouds.

Cassini NAC R+B color view taken on 2011-01-31. The top 1/4th of the image was colorized based on the rest of the image due to missing data for the red channel. The crescent was slightly overexposed in both filters. South pole is roughly at the 6:30 o'clock position.

Borrowdale, Ash and Holly. The overall tree canopy colour in Borrowdale is still green. The birches and alders are going but not that much else. The bracken is well underway however and conspires to make things look autumnal even with the amount of green. #lakedistrict #leofoto #woodlandtrust

White ash tree against oranges of bracken. On the right there is a rich green holly with vibrant red berries.

Iceland has a lot of spectacular waterfalls, but this pair is near the top of the list for me. The scene makes me marvel at how nature could create something so beautiful. To help with scale, I estimate the upper drop to be ~50-60 feet. #timothykeeneyphotography #photography #landscapephotography

Francis Meilland® is an award-winning rose known for being an extremely disease-resistant Hybrid Tea. Named after a remarkable rose breeder, this rose has large, high-centered blooms of soft, shell pink that give off an old rose fragrance. The buds are substantially conical-shaped opening into very large, full, 5” blooms of 37 petals. This repeat blooming rose is perfectly framed against its glossy, dark green foliage. Flowers also drop off cleanly, making it great as a cut rose. By Sky Burnmeister.

Against the black background of space, which has distant stars and galaxies scattered across, is a large spiral galaxy filled with streaks of blue and pink. The galaxy has warped spiral arms that wrap clockwise around its bright yellow core. Toward the upper right, one of its arms appears to be breaking away from the rest of the galaxy.
