~ Very Early Morning ~

So call me nuts. I set my alarm so I could get up and get pictures of the lunar eclipse. When the alarm went off, I hit snooze. A natural reaction in my morning haze. It didn't last long as I remembered why I had it set so early. In the darkness I fumbled to find my light and get dressed. I threw on shorts and a shirt and headed outside. Even in the darkness I could see the clouds and fog rolling in. I made my away along the side of the house to the backyard. I had to stand at a certain angle so the trees didn't block my view. It amazed me how low the moon looked. Hoping I could get a few shots before it fell below the tree line or before the clouds completely covered the view. For a second I thought about hopping in my car and driving to the corner where the view might have been better, that lasted one second! LOL Besides there would have been too many lights. As you can see I was able to get a couple before the view was gone. Not too bad... but they could have been better had it been clearer out...

:::sigh::: I'll be ready for a nap on that couch about noon! LOL

Have a great day all

Hugs

Fantastic photos. I wouldn't even bother trying to find an eclipse, just simply because of the amount of lights in this area. I'd never see anything. Glad to have photos like these to see.

There aren't many of them, but some things are worth getting out of bed for.
