Thanks. It's the "miniature" setting on my camera that creates a tilt-shift effect. These were the bumper cars at Knott's Scary Farm as I was standing on the ramp waiting for the 9:00 Elvira show.

Dam, that's cool. I never knew what tilt-shift lens do - lol. I usually shoot birds.

I used a Takahashi 250S Dall-Kirkam Cassegrain reflector on a Tak EM400 Equatorial mount. Image was captured with a ZWO AS120MC camera at 250frames/sec. Total 2999 frames taken and stacked using Registax 5.1 and post-processed using Photoshop CS6 on a Mac.

Beats me. But, apparently there is some local neighborhood haunted house network they belong to where they collect canned goods for the food bank.

Another yard haunt here.

That is very interesting. Might have to look into that app.


Because son, it is what you are supposed to do.
