Don't forget today lunar eclipse...
Get your cameras ready... the beer cold and get some nice spot on a
park bench to enjoy the show. (This is a rather long show, so don't
worry to be to late!!!)
If you are not in photography you might instead take your wife, hubby,
girlfriend, boyfriend, kids, cat, dog, or pick-and-place machine with
you. A sort of reddish full moon might be just nice to watch....

If its too cloudy... take more beer. Doesn't help against the clouds
but keeps your mood at a high level ;)

Unfortunately had a splitting headache most of the evening and was
knocked out in bed.

How is the weather in Tokyo?
I got a few shots in the morning where the sun sneaked out from the
otherwise totally covered sky. But well as for the eclipse the need of
two filters + (this time) a 2x extender does not really improve the
image quality. I wasn't able to control the shoots since you can't see
anything on an LCD of a camera pointing to the sun. I made a dozen or
more shoots and went in the house to see the results... I got the Sun,
the Venus and a lot of speckles the size of the Venus....
...well you get those speckles if your camera assistant is a three
year old... grrr... yeah daddy loves you for this personal touch of
his pictures!

Use an old school black velvet to cover camera and head... I used a jacket.

LoL, I spent some time cleaning my lenses this morning, run out of
lens paper and ended up ordering all types of lens paper from
Yodobashi. Will do a review soon!

Cheers,
Kalin.

yeah... nothing good here neither, but glad you got to see it!

Kalin, I was watching some video tutorial on how to clean lenses, they were
saying microfiber cloths are best (1 wet and one to dry) and better than
paper...
I always used paper for lens and microfiber for monitors...
does it really matter?
