Overcast yesterday and I wasn't up to it, but below I moved the earth to the right.

The top the month and day are given

It took me a long time to figure out how to line up photos and create a moving orbit. Before starting I noticed the convention is the earth being to the right on the winter solstice. I put the earth at the bottom so now I will have to change all of them.

In a fresh snow it is not very slippery, but when it melts and freezes it is hard to stand up.

My older sony's are my favorite cameras because they adjust to my eye site. The problem is the adjuster thing on the right small and I end up putting it in record.

The pentax have a great wide angle lense, is one perk.. then I had a brain storm, what if I turn on the panorama. If you do it horzintol it is long and skinny but by flipping it verticle, it is ok

Saw the moon and sun, using the old flash fill in tactic.

Another goof I repeat is taking pics with the ball cap on. I forget and the bill pushes the flash down.. duh.

Didn't think I would capture anyone tonight and just before leaving, these guys came up.

On the way down I spotted two boys with no big people around em? thought they seemed out of place.. 

    

I saw the moon reflecting on the pond and just sat down to take a few. They came out ok, but when I made it home, soaked.. 

I put these in a google album to make it easier to see, then will delete them to save my storage space.. but they will still be on the google blog.

A thought about iphones, some are great but others have a longer delay before taking the pic, bad for shakey me and some have a weak flash.

I only use the desktop but there is a setting when you go to a blog to select a phone.

So warm, saw some chipmunks on the crest and tried a pic but the blending of the trees, didn't turn out great.

Took several of these guys to get a good shot.

The silhoutte of the girl painting was ok but with branches, not so to define her then added flash.

Should have tried a couple others but wanted to get to the far end.
Captured a family and a girl with her hair blowing. One of my challenge pics ... took several then with their camera I did a post 32 pic with me up high.

N captured Puparonia getting pics with new pals.
