I was too lazy to get up at 5 am on a cold Saturday morning and see the lunar eclipse, but I couldn't resist getting a photo of the full moon rising over the mountains at dusk the night before.
Beautiful photo! I so wanted to see the eclipse. I peered outside at the correct time, but we were drowing in fog. I have seen some wonderful eclipses in the past.... and will impatiently wait until 2014 for the next one.
Sorry Mama...I know you told me if I became an artist I'd sell my soul, but I can't refuse the siren call of the paints (or the pencil, ink or charcoal either, for that matter).
I am a graphic designer by day, an artist by night and a nature nerd at all times.
Join me on my downward spiral to the Dark Side as my inner artist comes out and I sketch and paint for joy & profit.

Beautiful! I missed the eclipse too but at least you got a fantastic shot of the full moon!
This is a beautiful photograph - and possibly a future painting?
Hi Elva, I'm sorry your view of the eclipse was foiled by fog. Hopefully you'll have better luck in 2014! Thanks for leaving a comment.
Hi Dianne, thanks for stopping by. It would be interesting to see how you would approach a hand-colored photo of an eclipse...
Hi Claire, thanks for leaving a comment. I have to admit I hadn't thought of using this as painting but it sure would be a good challenge!
