I interpret/translate before responding, since it always puts a smile on my face I am willing to make the effort

I already have enough problems understanding common English.

Thanks, but it's tiring, even without strange or misspelled words, those make things more difficult.

ah well ArMaP , CharLee's right, what don't kill ya , makes you stronger

Some things, others only make live more difficult than it could be.

I don't see what the anomaly is on those images, a skull look-alike? Nice bunch of rocks though (wish I had one!)

I know like all the "It's a ROCK" people! They make me so tired and worn out!

Looks like the two pieces should be attached. Dino head sculpture

Now imagine if 20% of the posts on this thread were like this. I'm sure your interest in this thread would become less and less.

are you suggesting some yet to be explained avoidance is in effect?

Maybe, I don't understand what you mean.

Another bug flying by in the sky. Four separate images.

i wonder why the moiré or grain or artefact's stay in the same pattern between shots ,that are are least a minute apart

some might say that would be impossible

I'm not too surprised at that. I figure that every little individual pixel sensor in the imaging system has its own unique characteristics, so when you go from image to image they'll stay the same. That's why the sky always seems to have the same texture to it. But that's what makes the stray "blips" more interesting. I can see where the white ones might be a result of a transient gamma ray strike acting as a kind of bright photon burst on the sensor. But I wonder what the black ones are. I guess a gamma ray could trigger the sensor to display as black instead of white, but I don't know. I don't think it's dust, because the focal length of the camera probably wouldn't pick that up.

I make the animations from four separate images taken minutes apart so it's easier to see both the consistent texture created by the individual variations in the sensors, and the little stray white or black dots that only show up on one of them. Sometimes, not always.
