Photography & Astronomy
Still back on Earth… still cloudy, so I decided since God was giving me clouds, I’d make cloudade… err… pictures of clouds! I know, I am bored! But thats okay. I hope to get some more lightning shots if weather permits… funny, I usually say that about Moon shots or constellations! If you want to use one of these pictures as a desktop background, please e-mail me and I will get you the correct size.
Here is some more pictures from July 1 when I was out at Sprewell Bluff. In this batch, I have one of my favorite constellations – Coma Berenices, as well as one of my more favorite shots of late, Saturn, Mars and Regulus. Also included are some of Cygnus, Lyra and more.
Again, all pictures taken with the same specifications as mentioned in previous posts.
The constellation Scorpius along with the Milky Way Galaxy. Within the Milky Way, several other features are noticeable, such as M7Â (Ptolemy’s Cluster) and M20 & 21 (Trifid Nebula). Though the resolution of these, and other nebulae and star formations are not great, you can still see that they are there and where they exist.
Here is the first installment of pictures I took last night from Sprewell Bluff. Sprewell Bluff is a State Park located in Upson County, GA, just a few miles west of Thomaston. All pictures taken with a Canon EOS 350D, 1600 iso, apt. 5.6, focal length 18mm, exp. 30s. All pictures enhanced in Paint Shop Pro.
Here is the first batch of pictures I took this morning (July 1, 2008 ) from around 1:30am to 3:00am. All pictures are taken with a Canon EOS 350D, focal length of 18mm, exp. 30s, and iso 1600.
Also, all pictures have been edited in Paint Shop Pro.
By far the best picture of Jupiter, or any planet, I have ever taken. Taken with a Canon EOS Rebel 350D.
