Morning Moonshots
I regret to say I missed the lunar eclipse earlier this week. I just couldn’t fathom leaving my warm bed in the middle of the night and venturing out alone into the freezing cold. Hmm, now that I put it that way maybe it’s… Continue Reading “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”
