Skywatch Friday - Moon outside my window


I was getting ready for work early one morning. Too early that morning, I think. I opened the blinds in the dining room to see the moon hanging over our backyard right as the the sun came up. I grabbed my camera and took the above picture through the window. I didn't want to be late for work so I didn't bother running outside, because then I would have just taken way too much time taking pictures. I zoomed back in and was able to catch the osprey that sleeps on my neighbor's sailboat mast in the below picture.

  1. Those are some great shots Dina! I like them both. I woke up early one weekend morning and saw the strangest color out side and grabbed my camera and ran out side but didn't catch it right. We have a hawk that hangs out in our neighborhood and we hear him every morning!
