It was as if the moon, staring in through the window, was actually beckoning me to click it. So I went ahead and took a few shots with the Sigma 150-600 and since conditions were perfect, thought of trying out the lens with the Kenko 1.4x Extender which made the focal length a whopping 1344mm. The first time I used this combination and the result was pretty good with the moon showing some good detail. I did have to focus manually though which was a problem with the camera handheld. Never did the moon stare back at me from the camera's LCD screen this large ever before.

While I was checking the sharpness and detail of this shot I happened to see the silhouette of what looks like a bird at the bottom right of the moon. It does not appear in any of the other shots I took. I have added a note in the image and would be grateful to anyone who could tell me what the silhouette is. Am I right in assuming it is a bird? If yes, which one?

These friends did not take a liking to Tom and me as we walked past them while they were tied-up outside Woolsey Hall, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut.

Transit of a Hoth Moon by Vesa Lehtimäki

438 25

The transit of a moon seen from the surface of Hoth is a spectacular sight. Even in a howling blizzard, if the clouds were thin enough to let the sun shine through, the rebel speeder patrol flights were often paused just for the pilots could step out and enjoy the magnifcient celestial display.

Little known fact: The planet Hoth has three unnamed moons. Like with most planets, the moons' orbits around Hoth bring them in conjunction with the sun from time to time. The moons are too small to eclipse the sun, they only transit across it. The event is often refferred to as "the doughnut".

I tried to find out whether the moons of Hoth have names. Apparently they don't. I want to name one, where do I sign?

The thing about this photograph is that snowspeeder, of course. Many of you recognize it, I'm sure. It is almost an exact Larry Lars build with just a few modifications. I had attempted to build this several years ago. I downloaded the Larry Lars instructions, bought the bricks from Bricklink but eventually I couldn't figure out the build. I gave up.

So, this particular speeder was not built by me, nor Larry Lars. I received it as a generous gift from Dark Alamez who didn't know that I had tried to build one earlier. I am very grateful for this gesture.

I like that snowspeeder a lot. I've had it on my desk for months now, waiting for a good day to shoot it. In my current cycle of work such days are rare as hen's teeth, but last sunday night I took the time from my good night's sleep and just shot it.

You'll see more of it later, I'm sure.

Golden siren

Under explosion

Come lay your weakness down

On the floor in the backseat

Gold I swam into your spell

On the rite of God we fell

You were plush and laid bare

You had me howling
