Ok I'm not gonna lie. This is probably bragging
Lots of people on here have great things happen to themselves and to their kids. Having no kids and only a couple dogs that are unlikely to win any awards I did get this today. I think it's kinda cool and screw anyone if repost.
It's nice when family and friends like your work but when NASA picks your photo out of the 100,000 they get a year it's pretty amazing. Anyway Go to http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html Or here's a couple screen captures from my iPad app |

Actually its not that much pretty much standard Canon camera and some other odds and ends.
I do love having my work compared to Playboy centerfolds and nipples though.

I am in an engineering and architecture summit (aka a Geek Convention) today and one of the speakers had your Milky Way over Yellowstone pic as a lead-in slide in his deck.
I told the people I am sitting with that I knew the photographer, I couldn't help myself! People are absolutely stunned by your work Dave. |

Bump.
Anyone know of a cheaper telescope (around $100 or less) that would be good for my 10 year old twin niece and nephew. I thought my brother could maybe start a good hobby with them rather than playing video games or teaching them to be little spawns of satan.
