31cms here

Actually I got lucky, I'm at my moms place right now and it only ended up at 15cms

And for you Americans who don't like metric system. We got a foot of snow dumped in just over 12 hours.

Quite pretty really.

Thanks! Just do what I did, sit out in my front yard and practice on passing cars. I did get some looks from my 400mm aimed right at peoples cars as they passed though

I live on a cul-de-sac out in the boonies. We get one or two cars an hour going by my house on a busy day.

But point taken. No need to wait for the races to practice on moving vehicles.

A different kind of bird...I was out looking for birds one day last October when I heard a strange aircraft sound. I looked up and saw this B-2 overhead. Not something we normally see, but then I remembered it was fleet week in San Francisco, and the stealth had done a fly by. Neat clouds made for an interesting picture I think.

Yeah, nice shot. I thought they a sign painted on the bottom that said "If you can read this, you're f***ed." Or words to that effect.

Very cool shot. I can even see Orion up in the corner. Must have been a bit chilly setting up and taking that one!
