Was at Cypress earlier today (1AM-3AM)

Saw some really big ones but shit... It's so hard to capture on camera. Was using F2.8 (Focus Infinity), 400-800 ISO, 30" Shutter Speed. Lots of my pics failed because some cars were fucking around and flashing their lights on our area.

Belcarra would probably be a good spot. Just pull over to the side of the road or into the area before the gate.

Sad, but I don't care to see these things anymore. Seen enough over the years that it doesn't excite me anymore. Fireworks, volcanos, lightning, geysers, eclipses, aurora, etc............. I still love looking at women, so there's still hope.
