Nice!

Funny, one of the important steps when doing astrophotography is taking numerous shots using the same exposure with the lens cap on. To capture faint light from nebulae and galaxies many short duration photos are stacked together with software. When stacking the normal "light" photos in post processing you include the "dark" frames. The stacking software uses the dark frames to identify sensor noise so it can remove it from the light frames. Greatly improves the signal to noise ratio of your light frames.

Looking to take the family there in a month or so.

Any recommendations on places to stay near it all so we don't need to rent a school bus for all 6 of us? Shoot me a pm if you come up with anything. Don't want to booger up the thread.

Been to many of the islands from St. Thomas down to St. Lucia but haven't hit Aruba yet. :cert:

This is probably too late and I didn't take it but I had to show it off. Taken by a friend of mine in Washington state on the beach during the full blood moon yesterday. Amazing picture to me.....:yesnod:

This is quite good. I've seen a lot of them today and this is one of the best. Unfortunately around here, the moon set occurred before the eclipse was complete so it was hard to get quality shots.

Kudos to your friend. Love to see a link to his work.

No not kidding. :)

I actually didn't vote at all but was holding my vote to the end of the poll as a tie breaker. Think I owed you one from a few months back.

I've set up several polls in the past but always in a new, fresh post which makes for a nice uncluttered poll but is a bit of a pain, especially with attachments. I think the attachment issue is why NEED-A-VETTE adds a poll to the existing thread.
