Thursday, Sep 18, 2025 - Dave - 09-18-2025

Good day all.

Here's a shot (including a crescent moon) of yesterday's sunrise.

   

And a one question TV trivia quiz...

An old and popular TV show had an incredible cast of guest stars. Some were just starting their careers, others were established performers, and a few were near the end of distinguished careers.

> Robert Redford appeared in one episode
> William Shatner (2)
> Leonard Nimoy (1)
> James Doohan (1)
> George Takei (1)
> Bill Bixby
> Charles Bronson
> Carol Burnett
> James Coburn
> Jackie Cooper
> Robert Duvall
> Buddy Ebsen
> Peter Faulk
> Beverly Garland
> Dennis Hopper
> Arte Johnson
> Buster Keaton
> Sally Kellerman
> Jack Klugman (4)
> Ted Knight
> Martin Landau
> Cloris Leachman
> Ida Lupino
> Patrick Macnee
> Jean amarsh
> Strother Martim
> Lee Marvin (2)
> Roddy McDowell
> Burgess Meredith (4)
> Vera Miles
> Agnes Moorehead
> Elizabeth Montgomery
> Billy Mumy (3)
> Julie Newmar
> Donald Pleasence
> Burt Reynolds (1)
> Don Rickles (2)
> Cliff Robertson (2)
> Mickey Rooney (1)
> Telly Savalas (1)
> Lee Van Cleef (1)
> Jack Warden (2)
> Dennis Weaver (1))

This is only a partial list.

Can you name the TV show?

Beautiful Dave. Foreground Palms add depth to the photo. Will have to think on the question. Will have time as getting a new computer and time for data transfer so will only have my tablet.

Thank you Rich.

I realize that what I see as the primary and secondary COIs (the orange near the horizon and the tiny crescent moon) are located far from the typically recommended spots, but somehow it seems to work.

Regarding my TV Trivia thing: if someone immediately gets it right I will PM that person but will not post the correct guess so that others have a chance to try.

Nice sunrise Dave. The little moon adds a lot to the composition, IMO. Just the right amount to break up that expanse of darkness.

The first TV show that comes to mind that had a lot of guest stars is Outer Limits.


RE: Thursday, Sep 18, 2025 - Dave - 09-19-2025

Thank you, Don.

No, "The Outer Limits" is not correct, but you're near the right time frame.

Performers who appeared in both "The Outer Limits" and the series that my trivia quiz is about included...

Leonard Nimoy
William Shatner
Ted Knight
Cliff Robertson
and probably other minor performers.

BONUS QUESTION:
   Who Played Rowdy Yates, and in which TV series?

That one I do remember - Clint Eastwood, Rawhide.

Right you are, MFI.

Great sunrise Dave. You got the dark with the glow. Quite difficult to achive without playing with the photometrics.

Can I name the show? No.
We don't get all the American shows and I hardly ever watch any of those that we do.
