A meteorite I photographed the other night

The moon...

Lightning..took about a hundred shots to get this!

 

[Jdog3131]

Nice shots! I love the lighting one, nice job with the patience too!

Since other people have their rides posted and I'm not of driving age yet. This is the closest thing I have to one for now.

In the shop (aka my desk) for a little break.

Used to have an RC truck! Good fun!

MegF, that meteor shot is pretty cool. I like how if you look closely enough, it resembles a dotted line.

 

[MegF.]

I got a total of 5 meteorite shots out of nearly 300.....Some were pretty faint and I missed two that were HUGE! Actually were leaving debris trails behind. I was cursing! I really wanted to go and shoot the last night of the shower on Monday but when I got up at 2 am it was raining with lightning and thunder and never cleared until daylight...bummer. The rate was anticipated at 100 per minute and I was hoping for multiple trails in one photo on my long exposures.

Another lightning..

And for squee factor...a tree frog

And for ahhhhhh factor...a Halloween dragonfly

And to finish a random shot of a blue heron

random thought

 

[MegF.]

Why did you throw the plate in the first place?

 

[dave partington]

Various talking garden snakes had suggested it.

 

[MegF.]

Damn snakes! I knew they were dangerous to listen to....

 

[hikisquid]

I just tried it and the plate was fine. Do I still need to say sorry to it?
Also...does it count that I threw a plastic plate?

 

[MegF.]

Yes it counts....It means you'll get away with whatever you do! Strong work!

Meanwhile...

... someplace where all plates are plastic...

... someplace where all plates are plastic...

Not sure two guys could generate enough elastic tension to throw a real person that far - physics seems sketchy, though it's a funny clip regardless...
