I am building the Virginia 1819 kit from Artesania Latina. I chose this one because it seemed like a good kit for a beginner. This first post is just a little overview and my first impressions of the kit.
Mushroom time lapse
I noticed an interesting yellow mushroom growing out of this pot. Though it faded, I saw others on the way, so I set up a time lapse.
I took one picture every 30 seconds. However, after encoding a video at 30fps, the animation was too slow. I switched to using every other frame, and was happier with the result.

Magicicada
This periodical cicada (genus Magicicada) was on a plant in a wooded area behind my house.
