VaBeachGuy 12 Posted July 24, 2008 She's still sleeping, I'll show her when I get home. About mid way through the video you can see how the back yard flooded up close to the house. It rained A LOT and hard at times yesterday. So much so that I saw some whole yards that were almost completely flooded when I went to Burger King yesterday.

The F-18's are flying right now lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted July 24, 2008 These weren't "Outside my window" but they were "Up on my Roof" since I had to get up there to put some roof tar around my satellite dish (all the rain from yesterday pointed out that it was leaking where the dish is installed). Since I was up there and the F-18's were flying I took some video and these pics are stills that I pulled out of the video. So close you can see the pilot: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted July 25, 2008 I was out on the deck a little while ago and the moon looked pretty cool... so I decided to test out the zoom of the new camera. The extreme closeups are at a zoom of 200x. These were extreme close ups so they're a bit blurry... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted July 25, 2008 Very cool :) Thanks, I'm really happy with the new camera. The extreme zooms of the moon are blurry but considering that the moon is 200,000 or so miles away and I can stand on my deck and get close up pics of the craters I think that's pretty cool lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eratosthenes 0 Posted August 24, 2008 I wonder what that enormous lime does for the car's aerodynamics...I bet it pulls a bit to the left at high speeds. :blink: I can't imagine driving that down the road (but it'd be worth seeing people's reactions).

VaBeachGuy 12 Posted September 1, 2008 This summer after I cut my grass there was hundreds of those flying all over my back yard. I assumed that they were "hunting" for smaller insects that were disturbed by the grass cutting. It was really cool to see them all flying around the yard though.
