Stumbled across a new (and new to me) astronomy blog today: Adventures in Astrophotography, by Anthony Arrigo. Several reasons I like the site: Astronomy nut (here, here), starting to play with astrophotography (here, here), and lives in Park City, Utah, just up the road from where I grew up in SLC and just over the hill from our family place in Brighton (here, here!). Check it out, and I look forward to reading more -- especially about how the backyard observatory is coming along ...
Speaking of astrophotography, here's hoping the skies clear so I can go outside tonight and take some shots with the Canon Rebel XTi. I've been reading up on settings and methods most of the afternoon, and hope to take some long-exposure shots as part of my learning curve. If they work, I'll post 'em.
