Larchmont, NY This upscaled image from a 4:23 AM photo of the lunar occultation of Jupiter that occurred on October 6, 2026 captures Jupiter just moments before it was completely covered by the moon. It has been processed using specific astrophotography enhancement techniques: • True Optical Scale: The relative sizes of the moon's craters and Jupiter are mathematically accurate for a high-magnification telescope setup. When viewed through a powerful lens, Jupiter genuinely appears at this scale relative to the lunar edge. • Utilized Composite Digital Exposure Stacking to overcome the differences in lighting intensity of the moon and Jupiter. • Also utilized AI Sharpening & Enhancement: The use of algorithms to sharpen the blurry atmospheric noise (called "seeing") to smooth out the lunar details and reconstruct the crisp, geometric gas bands on Jupiter based on existing planetary models.

Created from a collection of photos I digitized that were taken from the 1980s-2020s in various places of the world near and far during times of war and peace. The digital composition was created using AI and Smart Photo Editor.

Mamaroneck, NY This surreal creation was inspired by the works of Stephen McMennamy who combines his photographs to create surrealist works. This surreal creation combined six photos taken in Mamaroneck on 19 August 2026.

Marshlands Conservancy, Rye, NY When I took this photo on 27 November 2010, I was looking up into the trees and had only a camera and telescopic zoom lens. I had none of the special lighting equipment and so even after digitally brightening the image, the photo remained less than desirable. Now with AI and asking it to change the back lighting to front lighting, this photo has been rehabilitated as if I had the special equipment in the first place. :) I also had AI remove the branch in front of the owl's face. The original photo is shown below:

With the discovery of CHNOPS (Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorous and Sulfur), multiple biological molecule classes, and AI's determination of Enantiomeric Excess L-Homochirality of 94-96% through deconvolution, machine learning (ML) analysis and Bayesian Statistics – clear indications of life, AI has statistically confirmed the presence of life underneath the ocean of Enceladus, one of Saturn's moons. www.ipernity.com/blog/285927/4737432 Created by CoPilot AI (Microsoft)

Marshlands Conservancy, Rye, NY Photo of a Coral Hairstreak butterfly ( Satyrium titus nectaring on an orange butterfly weed ( Asclepia tuberosa ) plant -- one of its favorite nectar sources. This is the first time since 2015 that a few orange butterfly weed plants (considered endangered) blossomed on the grounds of the Rye, NY nature center.

New York Botanical Garden (NYBG), Bronx, NY Description provided by Gemini AI (Google): This photograph captures a striking, top-down view of scattered organic debris and vibrant blossoms floating gracefully on a dark, reflective water surface. The Palette: The arrangement features an eclectic mix of yellow and deep red orchid-like flower segments, intermingled with faded pink petals, withered brown leaves, and a few small, starkly contrasting purple star-shaped flowers. The Atmosphere: The dark background enhances the rich colors and complex textures of the botanical elements, creating a moody, dramatic, and poetic atmosphere that highlights the natural beauty found in cycles of decay and renewal.

Created April 25, 2026 from settings at Larchmont, NY (l.), New Rochelle, NY (top c.), Larchmont, NY (bottom c.) and Jacksonville, FL (r.) This vibrant collage – “ Culinary Joy ” captures the multi-faceted essence of celebration, artistry, and indulgence through the universal language of food and drink. Divided into four distinct moments, it tells a story of culinary craftsmanship that ranges from the deeply traditional to the playfully modern. The Grand Display: On the left, a majestic roasted turkey serves as the centerpiece of an elaborate feast. The scene is alive with intricate garnishes: an elegant swan meticulously carved from fruit that is among vivid red tomato roses, and segmented citrus carefully arranged amidst fresh greenery and rosemary. It evokes the warmth of a festive holiday gathering where food is transformed into visual theater. Contemporary Elegance: In the top center, the narrative shifts to a refined, modern plate. A beautifully seared protein rests atop a bed of roasted root vegetables and bright cherry tomatoes, crowned with a single, delicate blue edible flower. This dish represents precision and balance—a moment of quiet, upscale dining where color and texture harmonize on a white canvas. Whimsical Confections: Below it sits a charming, miniature cake that brings an immediate sense of lighthearted fun. Designed with a smiling with rosy cheeks, and toasted marshmallow-like layers drizzled with chocolate, it embodies pure sweetness and the simple pleasure of dessert. It is a reminder that food should not only taste good but also bring a smile to one’s face. A Splash of Vibrant Refreshment: Anchoring the right side is a brilliant blue cocktail served in a classic martini glass, perched on a rustic wooden table. Garnished with a crisp orange half-wheel, the striking contrast of azure and gold brings an energetic, tropical flair to the collage – a celebratory toast to cap off a journey of flavors. Together, these images celebrate the diverse ways culinary creations bring us together, offering a rich sensory experience that honors tradition, artistry, and playful imagination.
