Old pianos never die…
When I saw the sad, battered piano standing on the sidewalk I couldn’t go by without taking a photo.

Say goodbye to Jumpie – this is the last photo of the nice jumping spider who modeled for me recently :-).

A followup to yesterday’s wobbly and cloudy space station trail – this one is the one I actually wanted to do and it turned out quite well. I cut down from 128 to 80 seconds, which was actually perfect since the exposure ended just as the ISS was beginning to fade out and vanish behind the tree. There’s still some sensor glow in the top left, but otherwise it’s still not bad for a camera that was built for a maximum of 15 seconds exposure!

A late night post – my first try catching the International Space Station with the S5. Not perfect by a long shot, just a try… problem was, my tripod seems to wobble and pushing the camera to a 128 second exposure with CHDK is not really advisable because it causes some blue sensor noise in the top left. But the image is cleaner than the S2 with its maximum of 64 seconds ever was. I’m still experimenting, there’s another pass in an hour which I’ll also try to get if the weather holds up.
