So I went out hunting for bears last night but instead just found the full moon and fog rolling in off the golf course we are partial owners of.

Very nice Elsa!
thank you

Oh I like those. Very Blair Witch
:nod::D thanks

ohhh nice :)
thankyou

Was it a kinda damp night? you have alot of 'orbs' in those photos
yes, there was a fog coming off the lakes of the golf course...at first i thought omg ghosties...lmao but then i was nawww thats dumb.:24:BUT, you couldn't see any of that mist with the naked eye, so i would assume it was off the sprinklers and lakes.

Amazing shots! :thumbup
thank you!
nice shots

I assume you must have taken a tri pod with you given the darkness.
no tripod just walking around with a steady hand. i was hoping to catch a few bears around the garbage cans of the course. I'll probably try again tonight.:nod: Thanks.:)

First time i have taken shots at night so it was nice to see the digital cam's can handle it to a degree. those were taken with a full moon fo lighting and some with a flash. the ones without the flash came out better...once i got home i applied backlighting to them and this is what i got.:nod::thumbup I'm learning:D

Awesome pics, and it's been a long time since i've seen that many stars in the sky with all the city lights here.

Yeah if you get away from the city lights it is amazing how many stars. I bet urban kids that never get the chance to get out of the city would be dumbfounded at the numbers up there. We had a cottage on lake michigan as I grew up. When we got older we would go down there and have a few beers and just be in awe at the sky.

Yep! Country living has its perks. I never miss a chance if the weather permits to check out the night sky. All those stars. And if you sit back and have the patience, you can see satellites too. That's a cool sight!

We can down in the suburbs too. Just that their paths have to be closer to overhead and not near the horizons. Up at a friends place near the top of the Leelenau peninsula we sat out one night and I can't remember how many satellites we saw. Seemed like there was one every 10 minutes.

If you go online you can find the schedule for the space shuttle when it is viewable.

Yes. It did seem like satellites were that frequent. And if one was lucky enough, you'd see a shooting star or two every once in awhile..... not every night of course.... and I have only seen several so far. Cool none the less though.

I will definitely have to check the space shuttle schedule out. Do you think it would be viewable from here?

The space shuttle should be visible anywhere in the country at a given time.

Yours next viewing is Monday around 5:30 am

This is the website for anybody interested.

Very cool. Thankx..... :thumbup

If once you input your area code and it brings up a box with info you can click on the sky log option which will tell you better where to look. it will tell you how many degrees about a given direction on approach and departure
