As promised, some more terrestrial photos. I was hoping to shoot some more, but rain has been been pouring down continuously the last couple of days.

While preparing my telescope for some astrophotography in the early evening, I was curious how far back I could achieve focus with my DSLR attached to the f/10 refractor. Turns out I can take photographs within my living room. Below a Bogonia at ~ 7 meters distance, illuminated from behind by a low sun.

On June 2nd, I took my camera with me on a walk around the Twente University campus. This time with the regular lens attached instead of a 900mm telescope 😉 . Some paths give beautiful fresh green pictures like this one:

While walking I came across a very small dam in a stream. A 1/200 second exposure gave a good image, but the 2 second exposure below made a way cooler picture. Just on the bottom of the little falls, the splashing water turns into a white mist. Also, the image shows cool bubble paths.
