A real Blast from the Past

For a 'blast from the past', one of club members has posted a video on YouTube he and Jean-Claude made on the 2005 Moonee Valley Festival.  Very interesting.

Full moon over Wellington, NZ...



Here is something a bit random, but none-the-less astounding. A photographer captured what is, to me, one of the most remarkable things I have ever seen filmed. It is a 3 minute video clip of the full moon rising over Wellington.
  



The camera was placed on a hillside over 2 kilometres from the Lookout point.  The amount of planning, trial and error, and luck that went into this are mind blowing. He has been trying to capture this for over a year with many failed attempts. But it seems everything was on his side, and it all came together in a way even he couldn't have hoped.




Don't waste it on an iphone screen.
