Have a great weekend everyone! Enjoy this pic of this beautiful tidal marsh that I saw on a walk near the ocean yesterday. This marsh is connected to the ocean (but not seen in this pic). I could hear the pounding of the surf from the ocean the entire walk! #ocean #hiking #CapeCod

Photo of marsh as viewed from edge. The water leads away from the camera toward the horizon where the ocean is (but the ocean is not seen). Tan and brown grasses line the edges of the water.


Today I would like to give you #MeerMittwoch in combination with #sunset and ... #birds (picture 4). As I stood there, huge numbers of wild geese flew overhead. It was impressive. And very, very loud 😆

The sea at sunset. In the foreground, a handrail leads into the water. The light of the setting sun is reflected in its metal. The water is completely calm. The sky and water glow orange, yellow and blue. The sun is a round, glowing ball on the horizon.
Wide-angle photo. The sky and sea are now very dark. Only near the sun are they still orange and yellow. The sun is just a small ball on the horizon.
The lower two thirds of the picture show the water. It is orange and dark in places, just like the sky above it. The sun can be seen as an orange ball on the horizon. I don't know if you can make it out, but the silhouettes of wind turbines can be seen in front of the sun.
And for bird lovers: two flocks of wild geese fly in the sky in the light of the setting sun. The sky is bathed in orange and purple. A little bit of the sea can be seen at the very bottom of the picture.


Continuing to share favourite images from my 30+ year photographic career. Now featuring Finland.
Lighthouse and pilot house at Kobba Klintar on the approach to Mariehamm in the Åland Islands. (There’s now a café there and I’d love to visit.)

View over small islands or skerries of pinkish rock in a deep-blue sea. A lighthouse stands on a distant rock and nearer to the camera a single white house with light blue hipped roof sits on a slightly larger island.


Remotely controlled Vehicles over Starlink.

What if you want to control a vehicle that’s hundreds of kilometers away, or even on the other side of the planet? Cellular is an option, but is obviously limited by available infrastructure — good luck getting a cell signal in the middle of the ocean.

Modern remote control (RC) radios are capable of incredible range, but they’re still only made for line-of-sight use. But what if you could beam your commands down from space?

That’s what [Thingify] was looking to test when they put together an experimental RC boat using a Starlink Mini for communications. Physically, there was no question it would work on the boat. After all, it was small, light and power-efficient enough.

The downside? Starlink is a fairly expensive proposition; you’d need to have a pretty specific mission in mind to justify the cost. The Mini receiver currently costs $599 USD (though it occasionally goes on sale), and you’ll need at least a $50 per month plan to go with it. While this puts it out of the price range for recreational RC, [Thingify] notes that it’s not a bad deal if you’re looking to explore uncharted territory.

But would the network connection be up to the task of controlling the vehicle in real-time?

During early ground testing, the Mini version of the Starlink receiver worked very well. Despite being roughly 1/4 the size of its predecessor, the smaller unit met or exceeded its performance during benchmarks on bandwidth, latency and signal strength. As expected, it also drew far less power: the Mini’s power consumption peaked at around 33 watts, compared to the monstrous 180 W for the larger receiver.

On the water, there was even more good news. The bandwidth was more than enough to run a high-resolution video feedback to the command center. At the same time, the boat moved autonomously between waypoints, and when [Thingify] switched over to manual control, the latency was low enough not to be a problem. “We wouldn’t recommend manually piloting a high-speed aircraft over Starlink, but for a boat that’s cruising along at 4 km/h, the lag didn’t even come into play.”


Living on the water strips a home down to the essentials: shelter, coziness, a space to go about one's daily business. It doesn't appeal to everyone, but it sure does to some.

A color photo of the hand-built interior of a small canal boat. The structure and furniture is all made of wood shaped into flowing, organic forms. Welcome.
A small, single masted sailboat with deep red sails raised. Three people are onboard. Surely there's room for a few more?

Oggi ho deciso di programmare le mie ferie di agosto 2027 sulla riviera di Gaza !
Caldo, sole, mare... 😎!
Do tempo giusto un paio d'anni per ripulire dalle macerie e dalle eventuali bombe inesplose...

Photo of a group of children jumping off an old pier into the sea. Behind them, a man is sitting on a bench, two fishing rods are propped up. The photo is shot against the sun (which is not in the picture). so everything is just a silhouette against a brownish-golden sea and sky.


Beautiful coast of Avola in Sicily!
Avola is an Italian town located near the famous cities of Noto and Syracuse, it is very appreciated for its golden beaches. Swimming in this town is very nice.

Moreover, Avola has also a beautiful city center, good to visit as a middle stop betweem Siracusa and Noto (or other cities that have Avola in the middle as it's easily reachable thanks to the highway)

Coast of Avola in Sicily, in the picture it is possible to see the sea, a rocky part kf the coast, and two trees.


One of my first unusual photos - not that long ago. Up until then, I mostly took 'normal' pictures: landscapes, buildings, family in front of landscapes, family in front of buildings, and so on. Rarely anything unusual. But this one, it can divide opinions as sharply as the lamppost divides the image. While ordinary pictures tend to elicit either positive or neutral reactions, this one feels bolder. Funny thing is, now I find it almost too conventional. But I still love it.

#photography #squared #sea #australia
The image is a square color photograph with a white border, depicting a sunny beach scene. The foreground shows a sandy beach with a single person walking on it, wearing a hat, and casting a shadow. In the midground, a lamppost stands tall and centrally placed, dividing the composition. Beyond the beach, the ocean stretches out with small waves visible on its surface. A kitesurfer with an orange kite is visible on the right side of the image, gliding over the water. The sky above is bright blue with scattered clouds, adding to the clear, sunny atmosphere.


Calling all #nature and #MarineBiology friends, can anyone tell us what these little jellies are? Beach, Isle of Arran.

Clear see-through jellies on a sandy beach. They are small, size of the end of a thumb maybe, and have vertical ridges all around. Kinda shaped like acorns.
