In the night from Sat 16th to Sun 17th (Aug 2008) we had the chance to see a partial lunar eclipse. I have tried to take some photos with my mid-class compact camera Exilim. This camera is not the best at night of course, but at least I had a miniature tripod and tried my best. Here is the result:

More photos at The Big Picture .

Long time no see, folks!

smashd.de is back in the net! The provider hosting this site - revido.de - went to a new location and upgraded their servers while being on the move (for free btw!). Being very busy personally I did not find the time to port the tons of files and databases to the new server as fast as I wished to do it - but finally it is done!

Taking the chance I am asking for your help:

If you experience any problems such as dead links, database errors or misbehaviour - please drop me a line at mail@smashd.de or use the comments below!

Thanks alot!

Maybe you've noticed the recent server downtime of smashd.de - this happened due to the needed shutdown of a whole server at my hosts' data center. They were threatened by massive DDoS attacks but enagaged the appropriate police and international guys so they handled the situation just 2 days later. So a big "Thank you" to revido.de and good luck you won't run into such trouble again soon. It is a great service for about amazingly low price of 20 Eur per year for such a big webhosting package . (surprisingly this article got the ID 110, the telehone number to reach police - just like 911 beyond the big pond :P )
