sorry, no photo this morning, slept in!

however here's a storm cloud passing over I-95 early this afternoon, stitched into pano merge in PS.
i put strokes around the edges of the each layer-slice just for illustration.

this tuesday morning, another mostly clear sky.
selected this frame from the timelapse...

and the timelapse below.
i left the camera on full auto and apparently it had a couple exposure hiccups.
maybe one day i'll figure out how to easily fix those and smooth out the transition.

this wednesday morning, another repeat with mostly clear sky, muggy.
i ran the timelapse capture, about same as yesterday, so tossed and only kept a couple still frames.

oh, while the timelapse was cooking, i wandered around to get the full moon this morning.
with the iphone. dubbed "corn" moon, happens only every third year, according to reliable sources.

Haven't posted in quite a while. Found this lilly on a long bike ride. Old Nikon CoolPix... It's a fine pocket / bike bag camera.

How did you scan it?

My Epson scanner will scan documents, slides, photos and negatives. This slide was on a 6X9 glass plate.
