Skywatch Friday

Recently we've been doing a lot of skywatching. Happy included. It's funny how she'll tilt her head to one side and stare intensely at the sky. I've yet to be able to capture her in that pose.

Here's a picture of a moon above a contrail


Close up

The moon in between two contrails


I'm still learning to use my camera. So the pictures didn't turn out that well. But you can get a better look by clicking on the images to enlarge them.

LS seems to be more interested in aiming her camera up at the sky instead of down at me. So I'm pretty much out of the picture now. I can breathe a sigh of relief.

Just in case she carries this phase in her life for a bit too long, here's a cut out picture of me. Hope everyone don't forget what I look like.


Have a great weekend!






We're participating in Skywatch Friday this week. Feel free to check out their site for more awesome skywatching.

Doggie has the sweetest face! Sounds like she was entranced by the sky sites just as I was by looking at your pix of them.

Unique streaks of clouds. Was it caused by a plane? Aw...she's so cute! My skywatch is here.

clairz said...

I, too, am still learning to use my camera and determined to get some shots of the moon. Your photos are lovely, and I am inspired!

By the way, my dog Emma gets me up at night, pretending that she has some urgent business outside, when she actually just wants to go out and gaze up at the moon.

Thank you for sharing your moon shots with your Skywatch pals, and thanks for visiting my blog.

Jim Klenke said...

Hello,
Thank you for stopping by!
Such a sky! Isn't it a pitty some people use it to abuse other people with chemtrails?
Dogs are such beautiful, innocent beings! Your dog is so clever and cute!
Have a beautiful weekend.

April said...

Your pictures of the moon and sky are just beautiful! No wonder Happy is enthralled with the view.

I love the contrails and the moon. Yesterday me and two of my grandchildren watched seven jets make trails through the sky. Wonderful experience for me and them.

Karine said...

Beautiful shots, I particularly like the one with the palm treesat the bottom!

I hope you can capture Happy looking up quizically. Would be a cute shot.

Hey Happy and LS,

We don't get pretty skys like yours in Houston. That's why Mommy likes to go to the country cause she can sit on the porch and watch the beautuful sunsets ans sunrises.

How could anybody forget you and your gorgeous face?
