NBC's photos of the year

some impressive photos to be sure.....two comments, though. i have to wonder what sort of zoom was used for the moonshot (though I suppose i could calculate the percentage of the frame that the moon takes up and go from there, as the moon's size is a relative constant); the shot of the Leonids meteor shower (part2/22) shows exactly one, maybe two, meteors in the seven minute exposure - the rest of the streaks are simply star trails...

hmmm.

that's all.....
