Morning colors

Yesterday the husband called me outside as he was leaving for work to look at the amazing sky and I couldn't believe the color. At about 7:10 the sky was alive with color and shape I just had to run into the house to grab the camera. Nature at its finest.

I lightened the above photo to show the church detail but the bottom is untouched! The sky looked like cotton candy with its pinks and blues.

Early morning

Over the weekend the husband and I decided to wake up super early and watch the lunar eclipse. At 5:45 AM I opened up the bedroom blinds and could see the moon nice and clear from the bed! It took us about 5 minutes to decide to drive on up to the highest point in our neighborhood to check it out and my goodness the view was breath taking. We stood up there for almost an hour (the poor dog gave up 40 mins in and demanded to be held it was that cold!), if you've never gotten up early to look up in the sky its a very surreal moment, especially if you live in a big city.  And always being the ones to go against the crowd, while everyone was oohing and awing over the moon, we were fixed in the other direction watching the sun rise. Pretty, don't you think?
