Rob's solar sequence in 3-D
by Chuck Hards 21 Apr '04

Rob, I noticed that adjacent images in your solar sequence on your Gallery page make fine stereo pairs! Individual spots change shape too much between exposures for a lot of detail to be preserved, but the effect is definitely there. I'd like to try shooting a pair in the morning and afternoon of the same day. Thanks for putting up that sequence! . __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Update On Weekend Weather
by Jim Gibson 18 Apr '04

18 Apr '04

Thursday night The tea leaves say (from Dugway MET) there will be hi cirrus with the wind dieing down in the evening in Northern Utah Friday night We wetted a sheeps nose (with a Chem. Wipe) and spun it on an Ouija board and it came up - The only clear spot in the state will be Blanding (South East Utah). The models (mostly blonds) are showing St. George cloudy Friday as well; with Blanding only clear until mid-night. There will be strong south westerly winds ahead of the front. Saturday night The Tarots say the whole state is washed out Saturday night. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax Center - File online by April 15th

Weather Friday and Saturday nights
by Jim Gibson 18 Apr '04

18 Apr '04

The models are showing a weather system moving in Friday night. It looks like Castle Dale will be clear until about midnight, then it starts to deteriorate. St. George looks like it will be better longer. Saturday it will be cloudy state wide and it doesnt look like it will be gone by nightfall. I will get a last minute update tomorrow about this time.

Question regarding parallel style Binocular Mounts and Tripods
by A. Gary Thompson 16 Apr '04

16 Apr '04

I'm considering purchasing an Orion Paragon-Plus Binocular Mount & Tripod ($279). Does anyone have input regarding this? Is there a better product available and/or for a better price? I would be using the system for binoculars up to 80 mm. Thanks.
