'Gef'

Will be arriving in the near future.

Modular fun

I have been rather silent. Work and daily meanderings have turned that which is I into the daylight somnambulist. A two week return to England and re-united with lost family has turned my direction to the realm of awake.

I used to play music many years ago. I have decided to re-start. For fun. Behold my modular.

First shots of Jupiter

These first shots I took of Jupiter are single images from a Canon 40D through my Takahashi TSA-102 scope. The little black dot is Jupiter's moon Ganymede transiting the surface of this wondrous gas giant.

More Lunar shots

I have been rather quiet blog wise lately but pictures can speak louder than words. Enjoy some recent shots of our only satellite.

Finally, Frederick Wiseman on DVD

Twenty nine of Fredick Wiseman's incredible cinéma vérité documentaries are now available on DVD from http://www.zipporah.com/calendar/press/9

Joy, utter joy!!!!

Second Moon

Another Moon attempt with a Takahashi Mewlon 210 at prime focus

A quick note to remind myself

On a note of personal happiness, I find that I am lacking in a number of areas and will strive to recify the following during the next couple of years:

Move to a house (no neighbours above or below)
Live with a dog or cat
Live under dark skies
Avoid worry
Read at least one ancient classic per month
Listen more intently to my loved one
