    Whoa! I would love to see that! Miami is boring in this way......but if I use a time lapsed camera, I'm certain that I can send a (whoopie!) coconut falling off a tree or sumthin'

    They were OK if you never seen them before, but because of the full moon, the pics werent any good.Oh welll maybe next time. They arent like a solar eclipse where you have to wait 10 years, for me anyway A couple of 3s are coming up but with the full moon, it will be the same.

    I just got back from watching the northern lights. The clouds started moving in, My cameras shutter speed isnt slow enough to get any pics. I will have to get a new camera, for any decent pics

    I have an add-on for Firefox that shows me the K index along with some other stuff about solar activity. It's handy to get an idea of how well ham radio signals will bounce around the earth.

    Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
