• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

devistating but amazing film clip

:shocked: Was that a volcanic eruption? :dontknow:

no it was the last time i had sex:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:. yes it was a volcano, here is the caption from the film

Volcano Calbuco erupted on April 22, 2015, for the first time in four decades. Located close to the cities of Puerto Varas and Puerto Montt in southern Chile. We (Jonas Dengler and Martin Heck) spend the prior couple of days on the neighboring volcano Osorno (~20km linear distance) shooting timelapses. After an amazing night under the nightsky we took the cable car downwards after a delay caused by repairs. Already late we headed south to catch the ferry on Routa 7 down to Patagonia. After 10min on the ferry we noticed a massive, almost nuclear looking cloud boiling upwards just were we left a few hours ago. Frenetically looking for a good outlook we then rushed to the only non-forested place to get a decent view of the show. We quickly put every bit of camera-equipment we could find on the constantly growing mushroom-cloud. We shot timelapses in 8K and 4K with a Pentax 645Z and Canon 6D. On the A7s we shot 4K video to the Shogun using Kingston HyperX SSDs. We filled almost all of our memory cards in the prior night so I had to do backups while shooting all this stuff.
This was for sure the most incredible show I've ever seen. I think this is a one in a lifetime event and I am so happy that we were able to capture it in all its glory.
We will also release a timelapse video of our 6 weeks trip to Patagonia soon.
 
your right bob it never hurts to ask,,, but to be honest the last time i got lucky it looked the same as this, i think it is hard to remember back that far
 
Oh yeah..!!

Tell me about it...Peru is a bit north of there...:yikes: we have our own "Misty" but it is dormant....:bowdown:
 
Major eruptions like this will affect sunsets for up to a couple of years. The ash gets injected high into the stratosphere and circulates with the jet streams.
 
And we worry about cow farts when this thing dumps more CO2 and ash than all the cows that ever lived....... Thanks Al Gore.!:banghead::banghead::banghead:
