System is tracking beautifully. As promised, cloud band back to Malaysia. My pleasure, you guys have sucked the Sumatra Monsoon away from Singapore / Malaysia. It really has been the most boring dull weather hear for the last 3 days. Normally this is the 2nd wettest month of the year, but so far on...
Nice image Nathan Enjoying watching this from afar - just usual hazy, dull humid crap here in singapore. Arriving home Saturday morning, looks like I should miss the worst of it all...
Enjoy everyone
Right on cue, the monster is looking at Earth now... seems there is a potential for some interesting action in the next few days: CHANCE OF FLARES, EARTH-DIRECTED: NOAA forecasters estimate a 75% chance of M-class solar flares and a 20% chance of X-flares during the next 24 hours. Any eruptions are ...
Hi Shell, I noticed that too earlier this year with Picassa - was really frustrating that they changed it all without notice. What I have found is that since the change, it looks like all my images have defaulted to be visible only to me. (each of the albums in 'my photos' will have a little padlock...
Wow, where did that come from!!?? thought it was a plane going overhead, even checked 'planefinder.net' as we don't always hear planes this far out from tulla!
Thanks Greg, yeah I had a feeling that would be it. Ok for happy snaps. Would love to get a decent lens, just the $$$ make it a no-no. Maybe my next bonus... **sighs**
I do indeed, Canon 550d, nothing too fancy, but more than enough to have a good crack. just the usual twin lenses, plus a fisheye. The thing I find most frustrating is getting focus set to "∞" correctly - often the images I capture look good on the camera screen, so i keep shooting away - ...
All settled down here now, been a very steady day, 15mm all up and think that could be it now for here, total just shy of 40mm!! very happy with that indeed
Hey astronomy lovers out there, in case you hadn't heard about this, Saturday evening into Monday morning, the moon is at Perigee - meaning it will appear noticeably larger in the sky because it's at it's closest point in it's orbit - it will be, at it's closest, a tad over 357,000km away. The offic...
Feel your pain Astronomer - it's an age-old discussion on here - very frustrating. Looking pretty gnarly today, commute was a nightmare even though it was only light rain :?: Had 23.5mm so far for this event, 12.5 from 9am yesterday. Agree with Geoff - think the next 8 hours or so are going show som...
What's your address again Robyn?? haha Was a lovely surprise this morning, massive flang at 5.20 (actually the lightning woke me). Was sleeping in the back room due to an earlier *very* noisy party on my street and had a perfect view of it coming in. Very heavy rain for just under 10 mins, pulled 4....
Must have hit the same time as here Geoff! Wild few minutes, dog's gone loopy, winds are insane - peaked at 79kph just now, 2.2mm of rain, and loads of cc's. nothing photogenic sadly...
Great way to end the season - I reckon that's our last 30c day for a good while
