    Hi all,

    Just uploaded a vid which started off as last weeks convection but then got a bit longer when I added March and May. Good vid for anyone having cloud deprivation syndrome.

    Hi,

    I realy like your timelapse movies, very interesting, tried doing it myself, quite hard :lol: .

    What sort of equiptment do you use, I use a G3 Canon digital camera conrolled by the PC, takes a shot every 2 seconds.

    Thanks :(

    Cats and wasps(A painfull afternoon)

    in Space, Science & nature

    Posted

    I was out today taking photos of a sun halo when I saw a large cat sat under a rock next to the small lake outside my village. I thought it was a domestic cat which was lost but when I went to see if it had a collar on it bit my hand and scratched my neck/face. It also gave out a growl like a tractor starting up. The cat then leaped up and ran into the bushes. I had an agonising 3/4 mile walk back to my house, where my dad put some cream on my hand and face. Then a wasp stung me on the same hand leaving in its sting giving me even more pain.Its hard to type now because my hand is so painfull and my finger is swollen.

    I've looked on the internet for pics of the large looking cat. It was sandy red/yellow with ears pointing up. I found a dead rodent, the same size of a rat lying dead from where it was sitting. The only cat I've found that looks remotely like the one I saw was on this site.

    I just hope I never encounter one again but if I do I'll try and get a picture without getting too close.The picture is after the cream so the redness and swelling is alot less than when I was first bit.

    Hi

    That sounds nasty, have you had a recent jab, as you might run the risk of infection, im glad your OK though :) , looks like you got more then what you bargained for today, shame you didnt get a snap of the beast :unsure:
