Ain't no way I was typing all this out on my phone (read-it)

I should also note that about half way thru a giant wall of clouds started to obscure most of the moon which is why you start to see less and less. The color change was apparently due to the atmosphere, similar to what happens at sunset. It was quite the sight last night 🌙

Yohs Chad

Cool pics

Not sure what the dots are ?
Besides deep field

And we just spent billions on Webb
When a smarty phone is all we needed

I saw that sliver moon high in the western sky
w/ the reddish sun set tint
out at Papago

I left before the sky blacken

Anyway I thought of shooting it
Butte didn’t
not sure why?

To be fair it was on my little Nikon, but thank you.

Saw a video were a guy recreated a deep space photo from file data, probably need to give a deeper watch, lots of techie mumbo jumbo.

I got lucky last night, lots of sunsets from my view but a small window for the quick moon.

Best shots are on cold winter nights, not ideal for finely tuned machines or human fingers.

It was perfectly banana shaped Pat

Fret not, it turned into a chili pepper in 15 minutes.

Not cheese after all.

mohs dots interesting. I got a couple sunset blue sky moon pics this evening. I may try some more dark sky pics if clouds haven't rolled in yet, with the new to me camera. (see below)

Son Of Beach I was given a Nikon d3300 with 3 lenses and several boxes of photography stuff, working on figuring out how to use it. I imagine once I get past job training and life I will make a thread about the haul.

“You preachers of equality, the tyrannomania of impotence clamors thus out of you for equality: your most secret ambitions to be tyrants thus shroud themselves in words of virtue. Aggrieved conceit, repressed envy—perhaps the conceit and envy of your fathers—erupt from you as a flame and as the frenzy of revenge.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche
