These take me back to a delightful midnight of my youth.

Thank you Andre.

Thanks to the PF astrophotography experts who helped me out recently- here's first light (1:1 crop) of the Ring Nebula:



30 second exposure @ ISO 800, 800/5.6 lens. This is a single frame straight off the camera.

Wow.

This time of year, Andromeda is directly overhead- this is a 20 min total exposure (30s individual images) taken over a couple of evenings (800/5.6, ISO 800):



The secondary bright blob is M32, and M110 is faintly visible in the upper left.

So I went hiking today for the first time since I came to the US. It wasn't that tough- it took us about three hours. Despite a small knee injury and the tiring path, I enjoyed it. :)
Here's some pics I took.

Great pix, Gad! You are in a spectacularly scenic place. The mountains in Maine are all worn-down and rounded. Still pretty, but not stunning.

Gad

Thanks turbo! And yes, I'm in love with this place already, you can always have a good beautiful view of the mountains anywhere you go.

Welcome to the far side.

Nice! Where is this mystical land of sun and scenic beauty? Not Cleve-town, that's fer sure.
