Sorry, a bit off topic, but did you see the house that is covered with license plates in Victory? The bog looks nice and since it's right there, I considered stopping for a look.

Re: Photographing the milky way

Al, Thank you again for all your help. Brightness definitely did the trick. What a great little piece of software. I really like your photos and your article. Some great tips there I didn't consider, especially how to ensure you have a good composition without blasting the scene with a light. I am b...

Re: This post is for kcflanders Kevin: info on trailhead

Thank you so much for your help. I was aware they are doing the hike again this year. They said it would not start till afternoon and we really wanted to be there soon after sunrise. I kinda thought that might be the start of the trailhead. Looking at a topo map it appeared the climb would not be as...

Re: Photographing the milky way

It seems to be only really visible during the 1 hour period before sunrise or after sunset. Any idea why that is...

Photographing the milky way

Anyone familiar with Stellarium? I downloaded the free software and need a little verification I'm viewing this correctly. I will be in Vermont 9/30 - 10/7. Looking at 9/30 it looks like the milky way looks best at roughly SW at 8:00 PM but that puts the moon directly in the frame if I am looking at...

Re: Most stunning tree tunnels

I'm curious if anyone knows of tree tunnels over railroad tracks? or better yet abandoned tracks?
Maybe the tracks near Concord??? Anyone know if the rails were removed?

Re: Early? - doesn't seem to be...

Kevin: I sent an email to the NEK Chamber. Last year during the Cabot Fall Festival during the NEK Fall Foliage Festival, they led a hike to Nichols' Ledge. I asked them to let me know where the trailhead is. I'm hoping they get back to me in a couple of days if you can wait that long. Stay tuned! ...
