Star-gazing. Love it! Got to have the right gear…to go with my MU Tiger pj’s for a cold winter night.
At 5 am could see the moon was full and bright. Took more pics at 6 am. Then about 7am – just before dawn, it became larger and orangish/yellow. What a sight. My cell phone camera and shaky hands didn’t capture very good pics. However, click here for the Earth Sky facebook page. People took pics from all over the World. I added them below (with credits).
5 am
5:15 am…
6 am…
7 am
What a great start to the day. My pictures don’t hold a candle to any that I found at Earth Sky’s Facebook page…take a look.
