I'll get it up (the photo that is).

I remembered to bring my card reader to work (where my computer STILL is), but forgot the camera (with the card).

I was amazed at how GD's camera took pictures of stars so well.

Alex · 06-12-2008, 04:31 PM

That's what I forgot to do that I meant to do!

I haven't tested the bulb exposure on the new camera yet and intended to play with some 5 minute exposures.

I think 30 seconds is the max mine will allow. Of course, for stars that's about all you want since any longer and the earth's rotation will be screwing up the shot.

Mine will stay open for as long as I want. And earth motion is what I'm going for. Plus long enough that the canyon walls start to appear out of the darkness. A couple of years ago I got a cool 120 second exposure of Half Dome off moonlight.

But alas. I guess I'll have to go back.

What tripped me out was how GD got those pics without a tripod.

Ghoulish Delight · 06-12-2008, 04:34 PM

All I did was set the camera down on my knee. And the one I ended up posting, I set it down on a table.

Thanks for the new avatar, GD. (Though I adjusted the levels a bit so I could SEE MORE STARS!) Man, I miss that sky...

I was standing next to him when he took the table shot. I thought bout putting my face over the lense just to be a butthead.
