Just a little project from a couple weeks ago when the Moon was full.  Sometimes it pays to look down at the mud… ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 211: Super Blue Moon!

Friday, July 31, 2015

We are having a Super Blue Moon…the Blue part is that this is the second Full Moon this month.  It happens every now and then.  I went out to watch the moonrise and it was disappointing.  It rose about half an hour before the sun set, and the moonrise itself was lost in the haze […]

This was taken the evening of the 30th of Jun, 2015.  It is Jupiter (on top) and Venus together in the evening sky.  They are so close you can cover them with one finger! (Click on it a couple of times to see it large.  BACK to return!) Now, take a close look again, using […]

Day 174

Tuesday, June 23, 2015

Another brief respite from snorkeling and flowers…the Northern Lights were out! Last night…tonight it is just clouds, so far.  But as I always advise people taking sunrise and sunset photos, turn around and take a look.  Here is the Milky Way (our galaxy) over Fife.  10-18mm lens.  These four photos of the Milky Way are […]

Day 170

Another brief respite from snorkeling and flowers…the Northern Lights were out!  Last night…tonight it is just clouds, so far.  You can see the Big Dipper on the left edge in the middle.  It is easiest to see in this view.  Enlarging the photo brings too many other minor stars into view. These were all taken […]

Day 169

Tuesday, June 23, 2015

Another brief respite from snorkeling and flowers…the Northern Lights were out! Last night…tonight it is just clouds, so far. These were all taken with my new (as of Christmas!) 10-18mm lens.  You can see the Constellation Cassiopeia (a wide “W”) on the border of the green and purple on the left half of the photo. A […]
