Day 95 - Look at my new Reach

On the left, we have me at the far end of my newly-extended long lens. On the right, we have the camera. One is zoomed as far as it goes, the other is at the opposite end. This 1.4x converter will really help with moon shots tomorrow, weather permitting. Hope with me, I want to see that eclipse.

 

Now, as for this shot... about a third the way down the hallway, my remote cut out. Which meant I had the choice of 2 second timer with a head start, or 10 second timer with a full dash. So I put the glass down on the mark, set everything, pressed the shutter, DASHED AS FAST AS I COULD SPRINT TO THE MARK, pick up the glass, turn to point with my camera, walk back, and... take 2. This was about take 4 before I got a decent one. Long exposures at each end, so not exactly "OMG, that's awesome"-quality shots. They shut the lights off in the halls at 6, sharp.

 

And the right-side was not taken under a time constraint -- only a distance constraint.
