Total Lunar Eclipse Coincides with Winter Solstice




These shots were taken today at approximately 1:40 am. Not great, but the best I can do with a point and shoot. There hasn't been a lunar eclipse on winter solstice in approximately 400 years, and the two events won't coincide again until Dec. 21, 2094. I won't be around to take pictures of that one...

Had my eye on this amp for over a year, finally got it when the price went down too low not to. A tube pre-amp section makes it sound a little warmer than a straight solid state amp. It is connected to my WiFi radio so that I can listen to over 15,000 stations worldwide, including my Toronto stations. Strange listening to weather snow reports in shorts and short sleeve shirts...

You can sit by a cozy fire- listen to old time Christmas music and remember when you and the world were young.
