@djjd62,
Incredible photos. I could spend hours looking at them.

I thought his Looooooong bridge in the Keys had a pretty amazing zoom. He must mean the seven mile bridge.

@Joeblow,
i really look forward to his updates

the night pics aren't as good as the daytime for some reason (although some are quite spectacular)

@djjd62,
I'm only back 13 days so far. So far, I'd agree. Spectacular though, really. Awesome.

I'm saving the rest for other times.

You can watch live streaming from the space station here when they're broadcasting (as they are currently doing at the time of this post):

Check out this awesome picture of the International Space Station transiting the full moon.

Photographer Thierry Legault was able to snap this amazing picture in the half second that
it took the ISS to pass by the moon.

Check out a larger version and more info here: http://bit.ly/1jNToQI

Given how little science we get for all of that loot we spent anything that provides some value for our money is a good thing.
