The Crescent Nebula taken over 5 minutes in June and July. This time, I caught a hint of the Soap Bubble! The starless version shows it more clearly. Higher res version on astrobin: app.astrobin.com/i/ni99aj #astronomy #astrophotography #space #Nebula

Can I share this curious bit of Faroese art factoid. The first Faroese artist Díðrikur á Skarvanesi died in obscurity, but his illustration of Faroese breeding birds (approx 1830s) is truly unique and (mayb biased) but I think this great skua is particularly beautiful 🌍🧪 #ornithology #teamskua #art

a wonderful little PBS documentary on dark skies in the @appmtnclub.bsky.social's 100-Mile Wilderness, featuring a couple of people I volunteer with at Dark Sky Maine www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ybl...

Loved this little Long-tailed Duck, on a solo adventure like me 🪶 #seabirds #photography

This is amazing, and beautifully illustrated too. I love the genre of storytelling that focuses on the lives of individual animals.

I'm drowning in a sea of thinkpieces on AI, but I really liked this one, on how big databases tend to homogenize knowledge, effacing traditional and indigenous ways of thinking. Reminds me of Lyotard's ideas about how the criterion for knowledge in postmodernity becomes efficiency rather than truth.

I wrote a piece for the Oxford Literary Review's online supplement on the cultural significance of darkness and how our relationship to the night has changed in modern times—from theology and poetry to the Copernican Revolution and the proliferation of light pollution in the contemporary world.

Interesting stuff. I wonder what a similar study might show with regard to how artificial lighting practices driven by social and economic demands in urban areas have affected nocturnal evolutionary trends over the last century or two.

Yang Hui He speculated that AI might come to act like a math-oracle, but mathematicians would still be needed to figure out which statements the "oracle" proclaimed were actually important -- and explain that to people too.

This 2023 article opens by citing Henry W. Longfellow: "There is no light in earth or heaven / But the cold light of stars." Longfellow's nights in 19th-century Boston would have been full of stars, but now many of them are disappearing. @darkskyintl.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/environment/...

"Last of the Trees". An image from my "Film is Dead" zine and previous photo exhibit in NYC. "Film is Dead" was (and still is) all about making images with fifty or sixty year old film. In the last few years, I've somehow managed to grow older than the film. 😉 #filmphotography #expiredfilm
