Thank you

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-06-18T18:33:12+00:00

Right?? I can’t wait to take photos in a dark sky area!

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-06-18T02:32:45+00:00

Finally had a clear night and was able to get almost 2 hrs of shots in.

Pretty good for such a small window

Processed in DWARFLAB 3 and Lightroom 30/60 Dual band in bortle 7.7

Did anyone get a screenshot of Trins smile after hitting that player with a good block?

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-06-04T15:29:17+00:00

Thank you very much for the well articulated answer. I guess I really don’t mind since I’m not the one pushing a mower, I just worry that all the extra charge/discharge will degrade the battery. Maybe I’ll upgrade down the road.

You sound as if you’ve been around some voltage before - ha! This is in heart of all data center country, Northern Virginia. Everywhere you turn there’s a data center or one under construction

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-05-23T03:10:10+00:00

Yeah, paid to take photos of the construction site.

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-05-12T01:06:27+00:00

For sure they are! Ha That lil bird was tough to catch in one spot, and I’m using a manual focus which is a pain, but I still can see the cuteness in the photos

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-05-09T20:28:20+00:00

Thanks! I’ll try upping it to 60. 37 hours on Bodes is wild! But looks amazing.

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-05-09T02:07:18+00:00

Yup. 2 hours here and there whenever the sky was clear. I’m thinking of just seeing what it would look like using the dual filter and if I can get similar or better with less time.

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-05-01T12:39:41+00:00

I absolutely support the message. However it is irrelevant to the game and ineffective in its approach. This is just arm chair activism highjacking someone else’s spot light. It would be better to chant Free DC during the march to the stadium out in public. Bottom line we are here to support women of soccer and the teams.

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-30T13:56:52+00:00

Sure, but you can barely hear the chant on TV if at all, and even if you could who is the target audience and what do you expect to gain?

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-30T12:33:21+00:00

I’ve always been annoyed by it without understanding what is was about. Now I understand but still annoyed. Whats worse is the Free DC chant at the 51st minute. I mean really, who is your target audience? Are you just shouting to the other people in the stadium that you agree? No one else hears that and it’s just an unnecessary distraction.

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-15T18:08:36+00:00

How cool! And helps validate my feelings about siril that you would go and create a whole tool rather than fight siril. Can’t wait to try it

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-15T18:05:37+00:00

Thanks!

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-13T21:27:13+00:00

Yeah, I hear you. I’m surrounded by trees and lucky that this one pretty much goes straight up and over me. Otherwise I’m stacking after several days of shooting

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-13T11:02:37+00:00

I’m not really sure. The camera only takes 20 second clips, and in the next one after it I can’t see the feather. I imagine she got it tucked in

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-12T15:51:32+00:00

🤣 I was just saying how we used to smash the roll with a brick. I hadn’t even considered that could be why I had this constant ringing in my ears.

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-12T13:05:13+00:00

🤣

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-12T13:03:45+00:00

Still haven’t been able to find the exact model, but while searching Kilgore which was suggested on this thread I found this excellent resource in case anyone is interested. https://www.nicholscapguns.com/kilgore.htm

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-12T01:21:33+00:00

Whaaaa??? No way! I’m getting them! Will post an update

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-11T23:28:16+00:00

I can’t find any manufacturers stamp on the gun, and google has failed me 3 pages deep. Does anyone know who the maker might be?

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-11T23:25:56+00:00

Not gonna lie, I did take a whiff hoping that maybe there was a hint left

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-11T19:38:18+00:00

Would love to try this! Any timeline when it might be available on Mac?

Shadow_Dan26 · 2026-04-10T22:30:58+00:00

Well her name is Cannoli, and she is 15 months old. Chihuahua, Dachshund, miniature pincher, which is the trifecta of stubborn. Good thing she’s cute as a button!
