Mostly Nerd (but not always): August 2015
http://mostlynerdbutnotalways.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 13, 2015. Persied Meteor Shower 8/13/15. Tried to photograph the Persied Meteor shower last night. Only caught three before the high clouds wiped out the contrast of the night sky. Below is a timelapse video put together from the 1500 photos that I took. Monday, August 3, 2015. Save the Drammatus for your Mammatus. Taken from my driveway. Sensing a rare photo opportunity I grabbed my camera and headed toward the lake shore in the waning dusk. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Things I like: My...

Mostly Nerd (but not always): July 2015
http://mostlynerdbutnotalways.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. Last evening the Moon 2 days past New skirted a couple of degrees south of Venus. I left for work a little early and stopped by Ludington Harbor to photograph the pairing. Guide Number = (distance/f-stop) X (ISO/100) = 1790/5.6 X 400/100 = 2506. Here is a close-up view of the pairing taken with my 500 mm lens. With the similar geometry of both the Moon and Venus being between the Earth and Sun they share a similar backlit crescent shape. The Moon was 9% lit while Venus displaye...

Mostly Nerd (but not always): Stormy Weather
http://mostlynerdbutnotalways.blogspot.com/2015/07/stormy-weather.html
Saturday, July 18, 2015. This morning I headed to the lake shore to try to photograph lightning from an approaching storm. Not a lot of flashes with the storm but I did get some time-lapse of the clouds and boaters. Below is a link to a video I uploaded to youtube. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mostly Nerd (but not always): Save the Drammatus for your Mammatus
http://mostlynerdbutnotalways.blogspot.com/2015/08/save-drammatus-for-your-mammatus.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. Save the Drammatus for your Mammatus. Last evening a line of intense thunderstorms accompanied by high winds (and even a tornado in Huron County) rolled across Michigan toppling trees and knocking out power to tens of thousands. I was awoken from my pre-work nap by my alarm clock as I had slept through the whole storm. Taken from my driveway. Sensing a rare photo opportunity I grabbed my camera and headed toward the lake shore in the waning dusk. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
