Last week I went off to ISIS at RAL to fire neutrons at layers of fats and dye to find out how they stick together.I now have to crunch the data to see if we learned anything useful.
I took some photos of the particle accelerator (while standing on top of it) and the neutron source.

A tit in a tree in the snow. It’s a bluetit I think.

Back in July 2008 I took far too many photographs while I was in Canada. I’ve finally got around to sorting out some of the panorama shots from the lakes in Jasper national park.

These two panoramas were stitched together from 6 or 8 individual photographs with Hugin. The first is  Maligne Lake from the north shore looking south, the second is looking east.

Both images are around 45 megapixels, and show quite a lot of detail. Click the thumbnails above for full size.

Between gaps and breaks in the clouds I managed to record pretty much the whole eclipse. The filter I used gave a slight ghoating to the edge of the sun, making it look out of focus.
