Happy New Year from Hartford’s First Night

December 31, 2010 by CtCameraEye Leave a Comment

Happy New Year to all! It's been quite a year, and a lot of great pictures have been taken and posted on CtCameraEye for all to see! On this last day of 2010 I managed to survive the balmy 43 degrees temperatures and go to Hartford's First Night celebration. Thousands of people were already participating in activites in and around Bushnell Park. Right at 6:00pm one of two … [Read more...]

Seagull #254

December 27, 2010 by CtCameraEye Leave a Comment

I have seen ID tags on swans, ducks, even pigons. I have never saw one on a seagull before. This was was in New Haven right in the middle of the blizzard we were having for the past 24 hours. Anyone else see a tag or tags on a gull before? I found the gull at Lat. 41.29369 - Long. -72.91772. After doing some research with Google, I found a place to send this … [Read more...]

Solstice full moon 2010

December 21, 2010 by CtCameraEye 2 Comments

Today is the first day of winter. Today is the day the solstice gods did not shine on the northeast to view the lunar eclipse. After carefully watching the weather for the past 24 hours, it came down to just 2 hours before the eclipse was to start to make my decision to go out or not. It did not look good after looking at the weather maps around midnight for the next several … [Read more...]

Meriden’s Hubbard Park Festival of Silver Lights 2010

December 19, 2010 by CtCameraEye Leave a Comment

Taking a short trip down I-91 to Meriden's Hubbard Park this year to see the "Festival of Silver Lights" was my best Christmas gift I could give myself this year. Dissapointed in seeing how Hartford's Holiday light display in Bushnell Park was after they had moved it from Constitution Plaza, this display gave me my Santa smile back! Best of all, it is free! All you have … [Read more...]

Iridium Flare and the Moon

December 9, 2010 by CtCameraEye Leave a Comment

It's 20 degrees outside with a perfectly clear sky with a nice setting moon in the west. A perfect night to do some cold climate astrophotography. I checked in with a couple of websites and found out that there was going to be an Iridium Flare at 5:49pm near the moon. The challenge was on. I went out to my dark sky location in Marlborough, did a few test shots and waited. … [Read more...]

A lot has changed over that time, and the new site here will show you many of the new places where I have been and what I have accomplished. A better blog site to keep in touch with you all, and finally, a new project that I have been working on for the past year which I will be announcing in the next few months. Stay tuned a lot of neat stuff will be happening!

Mercury Transit

        It was about 10 years since I saw the last Transit of Mercury across the face of sun. The last time I had a lot of time to get set up and practice my exposures on the sun. This year I was working and was only able to get the last hour […]
