    (wow, was hard to find this tread.)
    (Oh, I was last to post, early January, ew,,,,, maybe I should take a hint...?...)

    Trying to get a shot of near full moon low in sky including lighthouse/pier, which presents an exposure difficulty due to differeing light intnesity of moon and pier/lighthouse lights. Moonset.
    So, I tried HDR, without having much expereince/understanding of what/how it does.
    CAmera went click and then click, and I hurridly grabbed tripod to move to another location. ....
    1470189_MoonsetHDR by Dave Redman, on Flickr

    , even though had shutters speed less than a second, apparently the camera was not done doing whatever it was doing.

    I now uderstand that in HDR the camera actaully takes three exposures of diffeent exposure setting, and then processes them together and records it as one file.
    Seems like maybe I was moving the camera during one or two of the three.

    I can explain the dashed red line as being the LED beacon on the other lighthouse, being LED it actaully strobes real quick (60hz? 120hz) that cant see with eye. ANd I can somewhat explain the white streaks as being the catwalk lights. But I dont understand the dark streaks thru the white streaks. And I dont understand the red marks in the white streaks.

        Maybe what it looks like on Ayahuasca, pretty trippy, Redman.

        Remember these old ads? Not sure if there ever was a Suzuki bike used.

              This popped up on my Facebook memories, Brown County Rally, 2007. Jeff Stanley in front, me in the Yellow helmet. Rodney Foster (Oramac) was in the rear. This was me and Rodney's first time at the BC get together.

              Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                  Barn shot 2020 by Scott Marvin, on Flickr An old Kentucky Tobacco barn taken back in 2020. From the size of the tree in front of the door, it has been decades since it has been used for it's intended purpose.
