Well the cloud deck broke wide open just as the eclipse was beginning down here in Philly. I then spent the better part of the next 3 hours laying on the ground in 25º temperatures taking photos. ...

Hey everyone,

I received a very intresting usage request for one og my photos on A.net. Apparently someone from the BBC wants to use it in a documentary.

Here's the photo in question: ...

Alright its official. Looks I'll be heading up to JFK for this beast as well. Looks like I'll be the only PHLer making up though.

Closer to Monday's event depending on what the weather forcasts ...

Lol, I didn't realize I was being watched.

I guess in reality I read a lot of forums but rarely post. I can thank my good buddy Ed for alerting me to this topic. At the same time I noticed the...

Did someone say trains?

IS is always on with me,...

Well, as everyone who was at the June 11 meet knows, my 300D decided to die on me right in the middle of it. Got that replaced with a shiny new 30D which is one heck of a fine piece of machinery.

Justin,

I guess I convinced Ed to come anyway. Turns out the major local airshow at NAS JRB Willow Grove is next weekend too so Ed still won't have a camera. Talk about timing.

Turns out Ed's...

Justin,

I was originally under the impression that I (and Ed of course) was going to be driving you around on Sunday. Of course now he's not answering the phone either so I can't get in touch...
