Saturn Eclipse 

28 days of exposure

Final art fight update - until next year I suppose!  I made 27 attacks and defended 22, so I was able to stay ahead of the curve and then some :D  The attacks I received were so amazing too, I was completely floored by how much time strangers put into my OCs!   Def going to do this again.  Overall it was a crazy wholesome experience ~

S.S.K

This is no Westeros. On April 8, 2019, the Landsat 8 satellite acquired a scene of contrasts in Russia: a fire surrounded by ice.

Between chunks of frozen land and lakes in the Magadan Oblast district of Siberia, a fire burned and billowed smoke plumes that were visible from space.

Not much is known about the cause of the fire, east of the town of Evensk. Forest fires are common in this heavily forested region, and the season usually starts in April or May. Farmers also burn old crops to clear fields and replenish the soil with nutrients, also known as ‘slash and burn agriculture’; such fires occasionally burn out of control. Land cover maps, however, show that this fire region is mainly comprised of shrublands, not croplands.
