Good Morning Moonshots
This morning I woke early – too, too, early – could it be the cats wanting out at 4:00 and back in again at 5:00? I made my coffee and went to my office and saw the moon shining through the window. I’m already… Continue Reading “Good Morning Moonshots”

Night Sky
I’ve always been intrigued by the night sky and have fond memories of sleeping outside under heaven’s canopy watching for falling stars. In college I took an Astronomy course and the best part was our visit to the rooftop to look at the Universe… Continue Reading “Night Sky”

I Saw the Blue Moon Rising
Okay so it wasn’t blue but that’s what they call it; the second full moon in a calendar month and all the more rare on Halloween. We had clear skies and no trick or treaters so I pulled out my camera to practice my… Continue Reading “I Saw the Blue Moon Rising”

Photography Fun – A 2020 Space Odyssey
I hadn’t photographed the moon yet this year – how could I with all that rain? – so when I saw it glowing last night in its crescent form with Venus nearby I thought I’d give it a whirl. The sliver you see is… Continue Reading “Photography Fun – A 2020 Space Odyssey”

A Look back at the First Moon Landing
I was at the neighbor’s house babysitting and the kids were already in bed. Walter Cronkite was on television misty-eyed, pondering whether we’d ever view the moon in quite the same way, now that Neil Armstrong had stepped onto its ghostly surface.
