Other Miscellaneous Photos
The 3 photos of the comet and the overexposed Moon were taken in Jan-2007, two days after I purchased the Canon EOS 400D digital camera. I had no idea how to take astronomical photos and I didn't have a tripod, so the camera was placed on a cloth napkin on top of the airconditioning unit on the roof and I gingerly pressed the button on full automatic settings. The camera was smart enough to chose a 20 second exposure, but you can see how the camera moved in that time and blurred the images. Now I have to learn how to leave the dummy camera settings behind and take advanced photos - Greg (Apr-2007)

During 2007-2008 I discarded hundreds of old magazines from the 1980s and early 1990s into the paper recycling bin. As a bit of a time-capsule I've saved photographs of some of the covers. You can even see 80s icons Madonna, Natassia Kinsky and Bo Derrick on the Playboy covers. Sadly, I didn't photograph any of the famous Time or National Geographic or Omni covers. I'm not discarding my stacks of The Phantom, Scientific American, Oui or Superman comics.
