Got today’s Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) with “Fibonacci Spirals in the Garden” - http://epod.usra.edu/

Thank you Jim for continuing to publish my work

Managed to get today’s EPOD with my process of the DSS2 data of the Pleiades region.

Thank you Jim at EPOD for continuing to publish my work

Today’s Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) http://epod.usra.edu/blog/2013/09/navigators-companion.html is an image of the Polaris region with the North Celestial Pole shown by a marker.

This is EPOD number 53  Thank you Jim at EPOD for continuing to publish my work.

I just did a quick check through of all the Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) images that have been published by Jim over the years and I found I had missed 2 off the list.  So when I said I had recently managed to get my 50th EPOD, it was in fact EPOD number 52.  My name is also against two more EPODS, one is Brian May’s Sundog stereo, and the other is Alex Cherney’s superb Zodiacal Light shot from the Canary Islands – but as I didn’t actually take the images – these two do not appear on my EPOD listing.

My 50th Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) was posted today

Many thanks Jim for sticking with me and my various oddball pictures.

Got today’s EPOD with a focus-stacked photomicromosaic of a Diatom Exhibition slide.  Thank you Jim at EPOD for continuing to publish my work

The Earth Science Picture of the Day for June 21st 2013 is Avebury Stone Circle.  It was a beautiful day at both Avebury and Stonehenge last month during the Bank Holiday week.  Never seen so many people before at Stonehenge.  Thank you Jim at EPOD headquarters for continuing to publish my work

I have just seen that I got Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) number 47 on May 25th for “Imaging Diatoms”.

I can only imagine that I missed this because I had been working over the allotment all day and got back too shattered to even bother turning the computer on.  Still at least over 100 runner bean plants and over 300 spuds went in ready for this year

Thank you Jim at EPOD for continuing to publish my work and my apologies for not acknowledging sooner

Today’s Earth Science Picture of the Day (EPOD) is Hind’s Crimson star acquired at the New Forest Observatory and processed by Noel Carboni in Florida U.S.A.

Friday February 15th was a very eventful day for astronomers world-wide.  Simon Parkin had already arranged to broadcast the weather live from the New Forest Observatory that evening due to the near miss asteroid DA14 that was due in our skies that evening.  What nobody had expected was the huge Russian no-near-miss-at-all asteroid that crash landed that morning.  Typical, you wait for over a Century and then two come along on the same day.  Anyway, here is some YouTube footage of the broadcast from the NFO.  Yes I did get West mixed up for East (the asteroid came up from low in the East) – I put this down to my two years in New Zealand where up is down and left is right and it has absolutely nothing to do with my age   Video footage is Copyright Meridian News & Weather.
