They showed my lunar eclipse photographs on the news last night...may I
share them with you?

I'm just an untrained, country photographer, but I try to show up when
the skies are dealing out light shows.

I'm so glad I witnessed the triple-interplay of a rising sun, a setting
moon, and a total lunar eclipse. Quiet magic except for my camera
shutter. I've never seen anything like it. Remember the last time that
seeing something special happening in the sky really lifted your
spirits? I danced around laughing in the desert between photos...

I drove half the night to find the broadest cloudless, lightless
horizon...

Cheers!
