Hi ,

Sorry about posting a little off topic image, I took this
sunrise image this morning (02/21/04) looking out from my
front yard here in Tecumseh Oklahoma USA , I just bought a
Canon 300D Digital Rebel and hey I had to take an image of something smile

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Hey Wes,

That's purtty! Looks like you're in a pretty rural area - that's great! Congrats on the Rebel. Does this mean you're planning on going DEEP?? If so which tracking telescope are you planning on using? I live in suburbia but have good seeing because of all the water. Take a look here:

Beautiful Image. Just Gorgeous! Wow.
Here's sunset from my observatory in SC, one evening a few months ago.

Pretty picture Wes. I grew up in Shawnee (nearby town for other readers). I moved back there and then moved away again 4 years ago. The picture reminds me of the crisp mornings there (especially with the pink in the sky.. thinking of ice crystals).

Thanks for the memory.
