Aurora alerts going through the roof for tonight.
Very strong solar storm (G4 !) predicted to arrive tomorrow. Sadly it looks like being a daytime arrival for those of us in the UK and Europe but it might well last until it's dark here. Fingers crossed for all my friends in more favourable locations , here's hoping you get a great show and that we might catch the tail end of any display. The video shows the cause of all the fuss. Boom 30-5-25.mp4

Too kind sir , whilst there are a few individuals left on here that have encyclopaedic knowledge of these things I just have an internet connection and access to a great thing called Google. It's in fact Soul Source's own extensive archives and sites like Discogs and similar like 45Cat that have all the relevant information ...

Please ignore me Mike , when I hovered and the blank box appeared my avatar was near the bottom of the page so the details beneath the box were hidden until I scrolled down ... P.S. It would be nice to see the emoji list reversed as it's a mini ballache scrolling right through the stuff nobody uses to get to the 'nice' smileys which are right at the bottom ...

Today's breakfast sortie from Mr Milvus. Remembered to take camera up with me today and caught him circling the pile of squirrels I left as a buffet. He seemed ready to pick one when an enormous noisy bird arrived from behind the trees and had us both ducking for cover , the second 'critter' was shot at only 230mm focal length (uncropped photos) to give you an idea of how low and close he was ... And someone just pointed out to me a one in a million shot with the second bird , fifth photo of him has his "wings" in perfectly aligned for and aft ... !!! Just done a rough calculation given the Chinook's dimensions and the APS-C/lens FL combination , in the fourth/closest photo he's about 340 feet from me ... !!! And the unexpected intruder .... !

Just noticed one little thing that's gone missing , before when you wanted to find your own 'Content' you would just hover the cursor over your user avatar top right and the options would drop down with a 'Find my content' box therein , you now have to click on the avatar to get the drop-down and the Find Content option is no longer there. It's no great hassle but you now have to open your profile and hunt around that way but the previous set-up was nicer , has it gone forever ? And similarly if you hover over your avatar on the left in the activity feed there is just a blank grey box appears , but nothing in the box regarding content etc.

I'm assuming we're stuck with this dreadful font and its terrible spacing forever now ? It's really doing my head in to read , what was wrong with the existing font that meant it needed "upgrading" (and also shrinking) in such an awful way ?

Whilst waiting for the skies to clear this morning I saw an airliner cross the disc of the Sun and then proceed to fly directly along the path of the shadow its contrails had cast on the thin clouds ahead and above it , never seen the like before. I didn't have time to rush indoors and grab a wide-angle lens so I rattled of a series of frames with the 150-600mm with the idea of creating a panoramic shot instead. Well hats off to the bods that came up with "Image Composite Editor" ... 😍 It stitched the 'shadow' shots from this morning effortlessly to give me the panoramic shot a wide-angle lens would have provided ... The Shadowmaker was this chap.

At the very top of my personal tree going back to Keb and "Thrice" would be this piece of R&B magnificence. Sadly my "Session #1-Take #1" eight-inch acetate doesn't have "I'll be waiting" on t'other side but I can live with that ... 😏
