New View

For Christmas, my sister-in-law got me a small spotting telescope and it's sweet. Where I usually live, the view outside my window is relatively mundane. So it's a good thing we are house-sitting this week for some friends who happen to live across the street from Soho Billiards. I was practicing focusing the scope last night and discovered that pool balls are excellent targets for this. Once I found a good angle, I tried taking a few pictures through the scope using the camera on my Blackberry. I was surprised it even came close to registering. The results with and without the scope are above. Definitely due for a visit to Soho Billiards this week, maybe I'll try a timelapse there. Happy Holidays to you all.
