Oxford Flickr meetup tonight (19th September)

Just a reminder for all the Oxford crowd, we’re having a flickr social meetup tonight. More details in the group thread. Come along, have some beer, meet new people and talk like a pirate (until it gets annoying).

The day draws to a close

The day draws to a close

Tara and myself did the touristy thing in London yesterday (go check out the new Planetarium, it’s fantastic) and ended the day with an amble around the Serpentine. Nice day.

Spectacular image of Comet McNaught

Astronomy Picture of the Day has the most amazing image of Comet McNaught caught during the Australia Day celebrations in Perth.

Sometimes the sky itself is the best show in town. On January 26, people from Perth, Australia gathered on a local beach to watch a sky light up with delights near and far. Nearby, fireworks exploded as part of Australia Day celebrations. On the far right, lightning from a thunderstorm flashed in the distance. Near the image center, though, seen through clouds, was the most unusual sight of all: Comet McNaught. The photogenic comet was so bright that it even remained visible though the din of Earthly flashes.
