This is the 50,000th photo we have taken with our first DSLR, the Canon Rebel XT (350D elsewhere in the world). I wanted to duplicate the photograph I took when the camera crossed over 40,000 which was back in February 2011.

Here is the full-size photo of the western sky with Comet Pan-STARRS, from which yesterdays 100% crop was taken.

I went out to photograph Comet Pan-STARRS with the whole family and didn’t think I saw it. Turns out it was there the whole time. This is a 100% crop from a wide angle shot which I will upload tomorrow.

Lily is not impressed by the McHenry County Conservation District “Festival of the Sugar Maples” at the Coral Woods Conservation Area near Union, IL. However, the rest of us had fun and had a taste of the syrup they make there every year.
