Lol ... you used that technique for taking screenies that I've been exploring ... didn't you?

That's icons with their size maxed out then Shift +  + 4 ... tap spacebar then hover camera icon on those cutesy wootsy penquins ... am I right?

Those icons look great, tho'

No, the penguins are real. However, I have been using the Shift Command 4 for a long time.

After going back to my (Ford) Meteor, I finally went for another piece of astronomy:



Venus and the Moon, at 7 AM today. Only problem, I should've used my dad's SLR instead of the iPhone

Shot from our roof on the morning of the winter solstice, 21Dec10. I think a wormhole opened over the Sandias.

This is cropped down to the mbp's display dimensions. The full two shot panorama of that morning's shot is here.

That one of mine I posted above got to be too much for me, and I've substituted this one for it. Much more soothing on my old eyes.
