My little tesla coil burning some steel whool. Picture was taken in complete darkness, sparks illuminated everything.
That is an amazing picture. Do you have a RAW version of it? I'm playing around with the jpeg, it's so clear and pretty, but having all the original pixel data would be even more awesome.

Hey thanks for all the compliments, I didn't expect it to turn out so well :) and ah no RAW sorry... I don't have anything on my computer to support RAW right now...

I agree, that picture looks great!
Check out my new all-terrain geek toy... I always wanted one of these fancy full suspension MTBs, but they are way too expensive. Last year, I got to try a Santa Cruz Bullit and that just made me want one even more, but I was determined not to pay $3k or whatever. Finally I found this frame really cheap on EBay UK and swapped the parts from my old bike onto it. The result looks pretty mean and seems to just barge its way through anything I ride it at. Hopefully the wheels won't fall off like with a certain person's car. :P

Hey nice bike Steve! MTB's are for sure an expensive hobby, I just got some new stuff for my bike over the winter (brakes and forks). This bike takes me everywhere I love it. Hopefully though I'll be getting a dirt bike soon (YZ250F), just had a nice spill on my buddies today though... dirt isn't soft at 70km/h...

Firkragg, your work with that double-sided protoboard is always so neat... Great work! I wish I could get my stuff on protoboard to look that pretty, if it ever works, that is. :P

Reminds me of the days when (mainframe) pcbs had rows and rows of TTL logic sometimes one IC would have a +5V to 0V short - very tedious to find so we'd use a heavy duty PSU to 'let the smoke out' of the faulty IC then replace it. Barbaric but effective.
