Razor sharp Paul

Is that title it's Latin name ?

[Rocket]

Funny you should say that. I was going to call it longlegus flybeastydae but changed my mind.


Edit: I just had a google and it is indeed a Daddy Long Legs (Crane Fly)

Here is one I took a while back.

Nice to have proper internet back. Next door got struck by lightning and a surge blew my modem/router

I took these this morning. The sun was shinning so I thought I would try taking some bird pics with a long cable between camera and PC.

I take 20 mins setting up tripod, camera, PC etc.

In 4 minutes I get these pics (and more)

THEN IT RAINS

So my setup now is firing camera from pc via long cable. This has the problem of not being able to see what the camera is seeing. (the software does not have this abillity) To see what is sitting on the stick I use a tablet with a built in camera connected to the PC via Wi-Fi. I then point the tablet camera at the stick.


It takes a bit of setting up but I can sit at my PC watching the stick and when a bird lands I can fire the camera. (23 pics in 2 secs)

These are not the greatest pics but for overcast and less than 5 mins shooting they are not bad.

Love the perspective on this one, up on a hill with the clouds falling away below the horizon
