I saw the moon and the moon saw me
Anyway, I began July intent upon creating a slew of family birthday and anniversary cards ahead of time. I got almost halfway through that goal before this current malaise hit me. So, I'm going to re-commit to that right here *on-air*, as they say. And, I'll up the ante by committing to try to add 2 pieces of furniture cleared, cleaned and moved per week. The moving might cause me delay, but I should be able to handle the clearing off and cleaning part. Just.need.to.focus.
Moving right along to the subject of today's blog post title, I took some shots of the full moon the other night, using all 3 of my cameras, and I've been stalling my sharing of them because I was trying to think up a way to do it without a slide show (not into those anymore, right now, but I reserve the right to change my mind at any time). So, I'll just share them randomly for a while and see how that goes. But, I did learn how to make a contact sheet in Photoshop (yay me!), so I will show that first:
If you like looking at the moon and clouds, you may like these. I think some of them are gorgeous! None are technically detailed and crisp. I didn't use my tripod or gorilla pad. And I cannot remember which camera I used on which, not offhand. I just enjoyed the light reflecting on the clouds, the shadows in the clouds, the blue ringed and white ringed ones...
So this is the one I chose for today. The clouds look a little like a dinosaur head swallowing a glowing orb. Yup, nothing wrong with my imagination, is there? winkwink
