ISS Pass From Our Front Yard
Beautiful evening here in Midlothian. Caught a nice ISS pass from the front yard.
This is a series of 108 images shot over about 3 minutes. The composite was made with StarStaX.
Venus and the Pleiades
Venus and the Pleiades from our backyard at about 8:30 P.M. on April 11, 2015.
Venus has a magnitude -4.1, it’s rivaled in brightness only by the Moon and Sun. In this photo, we see the sky’s brightest planet and one of the most beautiful star clusters side by side at dusk.
Iguana on Islamorada
Susan and I saw a large group of Iguanas on Islamorada when visiting last month. This one was getting some sun up in a tree.
Everglades Bird
This a Panasonic LX100 4K frame grab from the video I shot in the Everglades.
2015 Florida Trip to Biscayne National Park and Everglades National Park
I rented a Panasonic LX100 from LensRentals.com to test out on a recent trip to the Miami area and southern Florida.
Here are a few clips from Biscayne National Park and Everglades National Park. All the clips were hand held and shot at 4K.
Edited to a 1080p timeline in Final Cut Pro X. The music track is “Upbeat Ukulele” from AudioJungle.
African Violet
Put an old Canon FD lens on a Panasonic GH4 for this shot. Not too sharp but ok for a 30+ year old piece of glass. The African violet belonged to my mom.
