Something unique to living in the country is that the night sky is pitch dark. I mean, can't see your hand in front of your face, dark. I remember when we still lived in St. Louis, I went out with some friends one night and I parked at someones house. It was about midnight when we got back and I couldn't get over how dark it was. My friend thought I was crazy, but it had been so long since I had lived in the country, I forgot how dark it gets. In the city you always have light around from street lights, neighbors, towers, cars, pollution, etc.
We had an absolutely perfect full moon and Samuel was mesmerized by it, so I thought I'd take a picture of it. What I ended up with was a lot of blurry pictures with this bright white blurry orb in it. I only had a few that came out semi-decent:
Here it is with clouds covering it. This was about the time Samuel spotted it...
Mostly uncovered and lighting up the sky...
Ok, so here's one of the bright, blurry orb pictures, but the clouds and trees are kind of cool...
And drifting away...
I'm sure you're glad you decided to spend the last minute reading this most riveting post. If nothing else, it proves how much of a photographer I am NOT. ;)
