Waiting for the Moon
The Great Moon Hunt of ‘015 We knew the East Bay would be foggy so we drove North out of the fog belt to Sonoma County and followed the pencil line road to the highest point. There we found a couple with their camera’s all set up facing East so we knew we were in the right place.
I wondered off while we were waiting and found this handsome guy.
Hope you enjoyed the adventure as much as I did.
Let me know what you think of the pictures.

Hipstamatic, hurrah for you. I was out with neighbors for hours as clouds rolled and left small pockets of opportunity to see the wonder of the eclipse. You did well. Happy Photo Challenge.

I think the wonder of the eclipse was being out at night with friends neighbors or even strangers. For once everyone on this planet was focused on a beautiful natural event as opposed to war or disaster!
Glad you saw pockets!

I enjoyed the trip. 🙂 We were fortunate enough to be able to see the eclipse from the front of the house. Quite something.

#3 has a very “Van Gogh” feel to it. A Foggy Starry Night perhaps? I like your last shot (and your ability to stick-to-it until you get your image).

You are the umpteenth person to call #3 a Van Gogh. It wasn’t fog it was just really low light that became very pixlated when edited to get any image. There was a guy with a bread-box sized camera that got a few nice shots.
I don’t sleep well during full moon so I get lucky shots wondering about looking out the windows.

I used to get opportunities for those great night shots when I was on Graveyard shift, so I sympathize with your sleep schedule. At least you are being productive and getting good results.

Nice way to think about it. This moon was worthy of lost sleep.
