I like going into the small local shop, shooting the bull and picking up whatever I need. I'm not going to worry if I can get the same stuff at Crappy tire for $1 less..

The Milky Way is still in the southern hemisphere When I do my Milky Way shots, even with a 30 second exposure I don't get star trails. You might be able to lower the ISO a bit to reduce the noise and increase the shutter speed. Goodluck and let us know how you make out! The coma effect also has a lot more to do with the lens, if you start to get into night photography, check out the Rokinon 8mm fisheye.

This is why the phone stays at home!

Stacking shots will be a lot easier. Make sure you use the tripod and do not move the camera after the first pic, also you can either use the remote shutter or the timer on the camera to make sure there's no camera shake once you've pressed the shutter button. Once you've taken the pic of her with the car, then worry about the stars. You should be able to get a good 'star' shot with the below settings. f1.8, 15s exposure, ISO3200. You'll want the lens on MF and focus out to infinity then back just a wee bit. Your aperture (f number) basically means how much light the lens is letting into the camera sensor,, smaller the number the bigger the hole. You want to use the lowest aperture possible to gather the most amount of light in the shortest time possible. If there aren't enough 'stars' for you, then increase the shutter to say 20s.. But the longer it's open the more chance you'll have of the stars blurring.

Not surprising all these teams with 100+ points when there are so many 3 point games.

There's a trend happening here Shane! lol!!! I can't believe people even attempt shady crap like this... 'Send me some $$$ or I'm suing..' unreal.

That's dedication!

Good on you It's pretty cool just to stand around and watch the fish do their thing to be honest.

Sue you for what? LOL!! They are talking out of their asses.. I wouldn't even bother contacting them anymore, let your insurance company deal with it, that's why you're paying those monthly fees year after year!

Some of the excuses you guys have are unbelievable.. From family members reading the regs wrong to not having ink for your printer? You all are still ignoring the fact that the regs are still available in printed form ,lol... Ignorance is bliss or what? Do you hear the hunters complaining about the hunting regs? I couldn't believe I actually found a copy last year, it was like winning the lottery! You need about 3 pages total, the overall FMZ regs and the exceptions. You wonder why I come off as I do sometimes?, all some of you guys do is whine and complain like little kids... If you absolutely have no way to print out 3 pages, let me know and I'll happily print them off and mail them to you (no joke), just PM your mailing address.

Leave those fish alone like VXP said, they're spawning....

You gotta work on those reading comprehension skills. A lot of us 'Leaves' fans are cheering for Montreal, that doesn't mean we like crap penalties called with 2 mins left in the 3rd with a tied hockey game! Silly Quebecois!

Call one sure, but not with 2 mins left in the 3rd period in a tied game, lol. That's an awful call.

HOLY CRAP! :EDIT: That's a dirty penalty to call with 2mins left in a game tied in the 3rd..... Dirty.

You mean the one where they left it for dead on the side of the trail? Brutal. And even in this vid, there seems to be some 'chasing' going on... What I don't understand is why people just don't stop when they see one? It was well ahead of them.. Stop, turn the sleds off and wait 10 mins.

Reminds me of the Pittsburg game lastnight!

Kudos to her for not losing her mind and shooting it... Everyone went home happy.

If you've got ADD, I suggest using a printer. Most likely your best solution. All joking aside, I can't be the only one that checks the regs before I go fishing, I'm sure you do the same

LOL stay classy Boston!

You're an 'All Knowing Angler' you should know this! :)

Looks like just the hide, especially being in a plastic bag.

It's the playoffs man, come on.. When was the last time you saw someone get an extra two for a punch? :EDIT: Plus it's Stamkos! lol!

Tampa better pull the goalie.

Will this help me catch more spring crappies?!?!

What's funny is that we've got a bunch of guys logged into the Internet fishing forum on their computers/smartphones complaining about the lack of paper regs The irony!
