I love learning about the city of Petra and the Nabatean civilization. It's so cool. But sometimes watching documentaries has me going, "......I know more than you." Or "You didn't talk about X! Flawed premise!"

DRAGONFLIGHT (1978)
Acrylic on Masonite - 20" X 30"

For the first book in Anne McCaffrey's now legendary Dragonriders of Pern series, I wanted to create a literal visualization of the title. I selected an aerial point-of-view and tilted the horizon to simulate the dizzying sensation of flight. 1/4
A flight of dragons swoops past a rocky mountain peak down that mostly obscures the sun. The light tints green sky yellow along the ridge. With wings spread wide, the lead dragon pulls up from a dive with beak open to expose teeth and tongue. The arc of its climb intersects a red striated planet. The female dragonrider raises one arm up as she glances back over her shoulder.

If you are not already aware that the little owl antennae are called “plumicorns” I would like to be the one who shared that information with you.

We took our macro iPhone lens with us today so we could get some close ups with more detail 🍄📸 #FungiFriends #mushrooms
A close up shot looking up at the gills of this pholiota mushroom. It is backlit and you can see light coming in through some of the gills A close up of three delicate grayish white mushrooms with a subtle ridged texture on their caps. A flash of gills are visible on the top two mushrooms A close up of brown and orange turkey tail mushrooms growing on a log A close up of a tiny pink mushroom. The cap is cute and cushion-like and the stem is streaky/striated. The background consists of leaves and twigs.

Moon Io from Spacecraft Juno

Official: https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap231023.html
HD: https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2310/IoFlyby_Juno_2047.jpg

Please enjoy following threads too! 🔭
There goes another one! Volcanoes on Jupiter's moon Io keep erupting. To investigate, NASA's robotic Juno spacecraft has begun a series of visits to this very strange moon. Io is about the size of Earth's moon, but because of gravitational flexing by Jupiter and other moons, Io's interior gets heated and its surface has become covered with volcanoes. The featured image is from last week's flyby, passing within 12,000 kilometers above the dangerously active world. The surface of Io is covered with sulfur and frozen sulfur dioxide, making it appear yellow, orange and brown. As hoped, Juno flew by just as a volcano was erupting -- with its faint plume visible near the top of the featured image. Studying Io's volcanoes and plumes helps humanity better understand how Jupiter's complex system of moons, rings, and auroras interact. Juno is scheduled to make two flybys of Io during the coming months that are almost 10 times closer: one in December and another in February 2024.

At the American Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC they have a mounted giant ground sloth skeleton, posed as though eating osage oranges.

#PaleoSky
Large fossil skeleton of a giant ground sloth, about elephant sized, in the American Museum of Natural History, raised on its hind legs and reaching for a branch of painted osage orange. It is dramatically lit from below. Close up of the giant ground sloth skull and left foreleg reaching for a branch of osage orange. The plants are painted flats like stage scenery.

Hold me closer tiny mushroom.
A tiny Mycena mushroom pokes out from moss on an old tree. The mushroom is lit softly by warm sunlight and the moss glows green. The mushroom is possibly a Frosty Bonnet, Mycena tenerrima.
