Thanks Deeva!

Hello Matt: I saw your bit on Zaffino that is training to be a Service Dog for the Guide Dogs for the Blind; do you remember 7 years ago I wrote to you and Les Sarnoff and asked permission to name my Service Dog Zaffino? So, now you have two Service Dogs name “ZAFFINO”. I see you every Christmas season when you have your calendar signing at Barnes & Noble or at Pro Photo Supply.

Thank you, Deeva & Zaffino the Working Dog

It’s a good thing Matt that you are collecting funds as well as thinking of raising the level of education among the poors,who can’t afford to go to school…I will also try my best to help you in this by uploading my best clicks of traveling…

what a lovely wedding! I wish we could marry in one of those gorgeous Riviera Nayarit Hotels. Actually, with the many Deals Destinations travel agencies offer, the trip is pretty affordable. Ohh... Fireworks, the sea, the sky at dawn… it’s a dreamed wedding!

I’m glad you’ll be raising funds for the new calendar, Matt, but will really miss the NW Weather Calendar. Maybe I’ll enter an old photo or two I have taken in CT … we’ll see if they win or get published BTW, Love the blog and photos of Turkey!

Hey Matt
Your Civil War forecast vooms into a Reser Stadium picture taken greater than 5 years ago. Give the Beavs a break, the stadium looks much better than what you show

My response:

Hey Jon,
As soon as Google Earth updates it’s imagery of Reser, I will too. Right now that’s all I have to work with.

Just so you know… it’s not a slam on the Beavers. I went to neither OSU nor UofO and I root for both.
Best,
Matt Zaffino

Comment on Can’t See The Northern Lights? Picture Them by Terri

Terri — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 22:10:15 +0000

I hope you are enjoying your trip, it looks wonderful.

I just wanted to comment that since Aug 3, I have seen the Northern Lights every night in Vancouver, WA. Last night was spectacular. Unfortunately, it was mostly cloudy last night, but they were still visible through them. It was clear on the Western horizon so you could see them dancing over the West Hills, then streaming to where you had to straight up. You could follow the light waves from horizon to straight up, they showed through the clouds.

Most of the nights they have been from all directions and average, but last night, no matter where you looked there were waves coming from all directions, lighting the clouds and dancing through the clear spots. You just had to look to the sky and it was like ocean waves at high tide, except they also danced.

Unfortunately, where I live, I can’t get photos as there is to much ambient light and it is brighter than the lights on long exposures. If they are still that strong on Saturday, I will drive North to the depths of darkness, which is almost impossible to find on this side of the state. I can only imagine how beautiful the lights were last night without the city lights.

Thanks Terri, this trip continues to amaze. Good luck making pictures of the AB. Stay with it!
