Can confirm. The drive north from Adelaide is just amazing. I pulled over one night off the highway, drove about 1km west along very flat easy ground and camped for the night. The stars were just unbelievable.
Yeah, pretty common. I’ve a lot of injuries from previous work as a climbing arborist, neck, back, shoulder etc. I have a great bed and pillow set up, but if I sleep slightly wrong I get headaches. Going for a run settles everything down though and they go away. Just hard to remember that when lying in bed prior to.
Woke up with a headache this morning, so getting out was a struggle. Glad I did though, as always. Managed 10km (53min), by not turning home just yet a couple of times. Doggo got into the rhythm too which helped.
Sophie Wilcox was in my sister’s class at school. She got very carried away with her childhood stardom, but fair enough, she would have been 11 or 12 or something.
Not that I’m any good at building, but a common strategy I’ve seen on various YouTube channels is to have a rough reference picture for what you’re working towards. An image search for something and adding the word concept or concept sketch usually gives back something good. It helps you remember the final look you’re after.
I’m working towards that I think. I’ve done a trail run or two expecting to have music but my headphones haven’t worked, so just had the sound of my footsteps and nature - was just as you say, very meditative… Currently using a 150bpm playlist though to get to a consistent rhythm. So hopefully that’ll build and I can start running free of music.
Got the telescope out. Got very satisfying woah’s from the kids.
Edit. Slight edit adding some sharpness as it seems the eyepiece was a little smudged. But otherwise straight through the eyepiece with my phone. Running with my recent Android Auto Wireless dongle AliExpress win, I’ve ordered what I hope to be a mount for my phone so I can do some proper long exposures using the tracking unit…
