Thousands of Spider Babies

Today I was looking at some things that I had stored down in our barn. The barn is more of a storage shed than an actual barn. It has been converted into a sealed off barn that keeps most varmints out however it isn't climate controlled or sealed off from small pests such as bugs and spiders. It came as no surprise when I stumbled across an intricate nest of wolf spider babies. It wasn't so much a web as it was a webby crib of sorts. There were hundreds of strands with hundreds of spider babies just moving around. It was really interesting because the small spiders were almost motionless, however when you breathed or blew on them, they would almost move as if they were a live curtain. It was really kind of creepy but interesting if you could get past the sensation of having them crawl over you. Below is a video I shot of the little wolf spiders.

2012 Meteor Shower

August 11,2012 was supposed to be the most active meteor show this year.  Being the avid stargazer I am I had to try and capture this tremendous event to SD Card.  The biggest problem I face is the fact I live in a city (really big town) and it is hard to get to an area that isn't completely ruined with light pollution.  The solution: try to find someplace out of town that wouldn't get us arrested.  Did we succeed? Sorta.  Did I get the magic pic?  Yeah, Kinda.  But the experience was fun none-the-less.

Here are my best pics.

My only Meteorite

Took forever to capture this pic.  I saw many meteorites, but this was the only one I got a pic of.

The Big Dipper

This was just a pic of the constellation.  Nothing crazy.

The Towers

This was just a cool pic of towers.  We star gazed on the backside of the airport.  We only got in a little trouble when a security guard stopped because of our parked car. Cool pic though (That streak is an airplane)

METEORRR - wait, hellicopter

This was just another cool pic.  This of a helicopter from my back deck.
