Thanks, Paul. They’re petunias and cherry tomatoes, respectively.

Thanks Paul.  Last night was quite and adventure, totally clouded over here, I 
drove almost an hour inland, the first place I stopped to try, the sky was 
fairly clear, except right in front of the comet.  Someone stopped to see if I 
was alright, we chatted and she gave me some suggestions.  I gave her my card 
in case she wanted to see the photos since we'd been talking about them.  

Much later I found a voicemail from her saying that the skies were a lot 
clearer back in the direction I had had come.  I tried from a couple of spots, 
and finally found the place of this PESO after the comet had sunk into the 
muck, just before it dropped below the mountains.

taking photos.

In the ongoing series of my stupid mistakes, when the K-1 died and I put my 
Rokinon 24/1.4 on the K-3 II, I neglected to reset the focal length from 135 to 
24, so astrotracer made all of the photos with that lens worse rather than 
better.  Oops.

Re: What PENTAX Values Most in Future Cameras - more info on new APS-C flagship

[Ken Waller]

I have a Nikon Coolpix camera with a flip out/up view screen, and while I’ve 
used the feature a few times it would not be a deal killer if a camera I was 
interested in didn’t have the feature.

PESO : Urban Neowise

[Eric Featherstone]

Here's my attempt from a couple of nights ago (it was cloudy in that
direction last night and probably for the rest of the week.) With
London light pollution I couldn't see it with the naked eye, only with
binoculars or on the camera's LCD after taking the photo.

Very nice, I've been running all over the place trying to find clear skies. 
Finally found them just as the comet was aiming into the muck.

Peso: Comet Picture

[Bill]

It finally cleared off enough tonight to attempt to photograph the comet 
that is floating around our neighborhood.
This is only the third or so time I have tried this sort of photography, 
I did some images of Hale-Bopp when it was visible.


Anyway, this was shot with the absolutely stellar D FA* 85/1.5 at f/1.4 
for 10 seconds with the Astrotracer.

This is quite cropped.
