Thanks Andy. I'm Glad you like it.
It appears you get paid to do my favorite Hobby - Astronomy.

Crazy Ed

Yes, I am fortunate that I travel the world doing what I love, lecturing on
Astronomy & astronautics. I was in the US recently actually.

I love the pictures you guys take, that last one was so atmospheric!

Thanks for showing us

best regards

Andy

I moved out here so I didn't need to travel 60 Miles to use my Scopes.
What is your "Specialty"?

Now there's a term I'd not "heard" before - Thanks

Thanks for showing us

Hi there,

my speciality is space flight I guess, I'm considered an authority on the
Apollo Program, but also many aspects of astronomy.

my university 4 year degree was in Planetary Geology

I have lectured world wide, and have lectured on the QE2

Keep in touch

Andy

A beautiful shot, Ed. Must be so-o-o-o-o nice to live with a horizon in
sight to get this and your sunrise-sets. We are in for a forecast week of
rain (again) and clouds but since I just purchased a Synta 80mm I expected
it. 8-(

Luckily not true at least for a couple of days. Look in a.b.p.astro for
"Calgary Numoon".
