I'm In Trouble

HI Guys, well I'm not to popular today, but that is nothing new when it comes to late nights, and a few wines in between imaging.

Last night I hit the hay at about 3 am, surprisingly Alice was awake and asked me, "how did you go tonight" yea pretty good, darl, I said, I actually imaged the ring tail, or the Antanna Nebula.

Then soundly fell asleep, she, Alice thought that I was putting her down by saying that I imaged a possum on the Antanna.

Ah well, just thought I would share that with you, I'm sure you all have been there.

Leon

Ian,

Trust me mate I spend heaps of quality time with Alice, we are very close, but she is not close enough to spend 3 to 4 hours out in the frost imaging, which I love.

what ever you do...don't say "hey Alice...mind if I spend the night photographing Uranus?" lest you want that 5d photographing the inside of your own!

Nice too see you are all mad, but anyone who stands outside for 3-4 hours waiting to get those elusive shoots freezing their balXXXXs off has got too be mad.

Sleep tight

I don't know .... doesn't craziness come with being a stargazer ??

You could have worse habits .... like chasing the skirts , boozing , using the weed , putting your money into the pokeys or the TAB.

Ian are they worse habits I thought they were horses for courses for us blokes out there especially on those nights when the clouds roll in, or should we spend our time on more worthwhile pursuits like chatting on forums and the like

Remember ladies, if we ever say anything that could be taken two ways, and one of those would be upsetting to you, we meant the other one really
