Moon & Sun Rises

Last night I was packing boxes and Millie was sitting in her spot, looking out the window. She barked. I thought she was barking at deer in the field. Nope.

Almost-full moon. Totally bark-worthy.

This morning's spectacular sunrise:

That round dot over the mountain is not the moon. It's an energy orb if you're newage-ish. Or dust on the lens.

Have an AWESOME day!

Can you see it?

View from the labyrinth yesterday. Can you see the moon?

Here it is:

View off front porch this a.m. Can you see the turkey?

No? Trotting down the driveway? Here it is:

See the bear in there? Kidding. No bear. Back tomorrow!

I'm slapping up some photos and will write about my Jerry Stocking NYC adventures in the next few posts. For now, I've got many busy's to attend to. Back tomorrow. :-) H.

Day of Rest: Moon Rise

The moon rises for the past 2 nights have been gloriously spectacular. My photos have not captured their splendor. Here's the dot from last night:

I have a little Casio camera. For the most part it makes me a much better photographer than I am because I don't have to fuss with F-stops & stuff. It also has a feature where you can choose a setting (outdoor, candle light, night time, etc.) So I changed the setting:

Hmmmm . . . streaky. And I got a "J" for . . . Jesus? So then I moved the camera on purpose as I took the photo:

Kinda like a heart kite. :-) So then I changed the setting:

And that's the best I can do. If I ever get serious about photography, I'll get a real camera and go study with Holly or Nancy. For now, I like being able to slip it in my pocket and go.

I have had a rather philosophical week, and will post something about religion tomorrow. Yummy. In the meantime, these photos are a great metaphor for how we view the world. Same moon rise (stimulus), different filters (beliefs & patterns) to create a different outcome (response or reaction). Which one is "right?" All of them.
