The Pink Trail

I was taking pictures of the moon tonight (can you see the dark part?) when something happened.


A plane flew straight across the moon. And in the twilight, left this pink jet trail right in front of it. An effect I will likely never see again.

How awesome this is Ginny!!!

And regarding the spoonbill with the pelicans...no, that is a real time photo, the spoonbill was there with the white pelicans...true size. I didn't add it.

You take such fascinating photos! Do you have a collection? I would have a whole wall of nothing but your framed photos! Floor to ceiling!

Tamago said...

Wow, it was a great timing! You captured very unique and beautiful photos!

That is remarkable you were at the right place at the right time. Doubt anyone else caught this. You could probably get paid for this shot.

Talk about being at the light place at the right time.This is most likely a one time experience and you were ready to capture the moment.

Ginny, as always, amazing!

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
