A few, difficult shots of two deer taken yesterday.

These two, a male and a female, were resting close to the back deck. I had to be extremely careful in taking these five photographs.

As I have said many times before, I feed the deer every morning. They know, I’m sure, that they are loved by us. Two or three of them are waiting for their feed practically every morning. As soon as I go into the stables, to get the feed, more deer arrive and, typically, I put out the feed for between five and nine deer.

Perfect!

More NASA images.

And what images.

NASA celebrates Hubble’s 36th anniversary with a new image of the Trifid Nebula, a star-forming region it first captured in 1997. The telescope leveraged almost its full operational lifetime to show us changes in the nebula on human time scales with an improved camera.

There is more information on the NASA website.

Now a YouTube video.

What terrific images from Hubble.
