Leftovers

I had some video footage of Jupiter shot from the kitchen window sitting around from the test runs before the Moon Mars occultation. Decided to try processing it.

Not bad for a quick test with just my Canon R7 + 500mm (750mm crop) zoom lens 60fps 4k on a Move Shoot Move tracker. Probably didn't really need the tracker for this but it was setup for testing and it things closer to center and easier to process.

The moon has a pimple!

 Lunar occultation of Mars captured from our kitchen window in SF. 

Does the moon have a pimple or is that Mars being occluded?

It started from lower left and ended top middle.

Light cloud cover that you can't see in the photos but it did cause the beginning images (lower left) to be softer. The clouds actually made it look nice and spooky through binoculars. Maybe at some point I'll edit a short video from the footage I captured to stack.

OB turned on this morning!

And it was firing rainbows!

There is someone paddling into a wave in that little red circle. See below.

There he is.

And he made it!

And a really nice bottom turn!

And throwing some amazing spray! I think he may have even gotten barreled on that same wave but I didn't catch it because it was such a long ride.

And someone going right.

I caught that same guy from earlier throwing spray on a few waves. He was killing it this morning.

A guy fishing gives a little bit of scale comparison from shore. I still don't think it shows how big and beautiful the set waves were but thought it was a good reference point if you were standing on shore.
 

Mellow OB Thanksgiving Surf!

Had a bunch of fun waves this morning then went back out and shot some pictures. Waist to a little over head on some sets. Plenty to go around and a lot of party waves. Great morning!

This guy got barreled but my camera started buffering and I missed ut -:/

Peaking over the top to see the wave you wish you were on.

There were some bigger waves out there if you were in the right spot.

And some party waves on the inside -:]

Nice little split peak with a light offshore. Hard to beat.

Throwing some spray to celebrate!

More than enough waves to go around.

Thinking about heading back out for seconds -;]

Happy Thanksgiving!
 

Things that Fly and Dip

Things I saw walking around by the beach this weekend.

 

Full Moon set in Half Moon Bay

 Pre Surf full moon set in Half Moon Bay. Didn't surf here because the surf wasn't great but it was pretty.
