    Try listening for the thump when the rocket fires when leaving the ground, the time delay whne it explodes is fairly constant .

  • dinghysailor1 replied

    Nice lines and imagery Maggie ! That title is a mystery to me – it sounds like a play on Goldilocks ?

  • dinghysailor1 replied

    hi thanks J .. sorry if it didnt translate…LOL
    not sure if you have dandelions (yellow flowering rabbit food and quite invasive weeds) down your wayr .. as kids we used to count the puffs needed to blow all the seeds off a seedhead,,chanting one oclock two o clock etc….

    hope this helps ..
    cheers

    Excellent! I like fire-work photo’s….have tried it myself several times without succes :)

  • dinghysailor1 replied

    hi ellen thanks so much – i love seeing fireworks but it is sooo pot luck!! even if you chance on decent settings – my lucky combo was f/8 1sec… it is just a random result.. i only got 15 nano seconds of pics from an hour long concert..
    cheers and thanks again for your lovely visit! love your work
