the latest picture is always added to the index, the index is restored if necessary, and generally this is in a good state for physical work to proceed.

<h1>Welcome to telescopium!</h1>
<p>This is shoofle's time lapse camera computer for the pear house backyard. It should take a picture daily and hold onto them, eventually compiling them into a timelapse automatically.</p>
<p>Please contact shoofle with any feature requests or questions.</p>
<p>The latest image from the camera is this:</p>
<img id="latest" src="/stills/test.jpg"/>
<p>The full catalog of still images should be seen at <a href="/stills/">http://telescopium.local/stills/</a>.</p>
