• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Should've Used the Stars for Directions....

Another beautiful picture.

RE: Stars for navigation

My other home had a wonderful view of the Big Dipper and the North Star. Because of our position here in AK, it was almost straight up from my deck. As the night progressed, the Dipper would seem to revolve around the North Star.

Ditto that Pete,
Todd, I don't say it enough. I go look through your flicker pics routinely and just love your compositions. Your black Spyder with the butte's, bluff's, and milky way are just beautiful. Thank-you again for sharing.
 
what planet

I wonder if that is Mars on the left just above the tree? I think it's way to bright to be a star.
 
Yes, Mars. It was REALLY bright. Jupiter was to the right of the MW but didn't make the cut! :)



Well..... thanks for the compliments!

Really.... a Spyder is the ideal vehicle to hunt the Milky Way. It is safer than 2 wheels at night and carries everything I need. At Big Bend NP last year I had a 6 foot camera slider hooked to it. That was a sight to see!
