    It's counted cross stitch, Iris. Every time I tell myself I'm not going to do another counted piece, I find myself charmed by another pattern!

    Yes, two starfish!
    My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already!

    Not especially artistic. But, I've been experimenting using some of my astronomy image processing tools on terrestrial photos.

    Modern computers are super-powerful for image processing, especially the higher-end new Apple M1 processor-based machines.

    The source photo is a simple digital snapshot of a 50+ year old photo in a frame, with an older iPhone.

    The resultant photo is that image run through some of my tools, a process that would have taken forever with older computers, here it was nearly real-time to examine the changes, which allowed me to fiddle with some of the parameters to get a better result.

    Bae, that technology really crisped the image nice and clean.

    Random first experiment with a pinhole lens. No filters were abused in the production of this image :-)

    Walked to the top of the mountain this afternoon, took some shots of the Cascades (Mt. Baker and the Twin Sisters) from Mt. Constitution here. Then stopped at the community dock on the way back, and got a shot of a storm over the Olympic mountains from a distance:
