Blood moon through the trees

I get by with a little help from my friends. One good pal often texts me when the moon looks great. Sometimes I’m good about watching the skies and knowing about celestial events, whether I plan to photograph them or not. Other times, not so good.

Last Friday night, my phone rang. It was another friend, who’d just left a short while ago after an evening at the pool.

“I just wanted to let you know that I’m almost home, and the moon is orange and the sky is blue!” She was so excited!

I was tired after two hours of swimming, but I ran out anyway for a few hand-held shots. I haven’t gotten the greatest results with my moon shot endeavors, but this one turned out OK, even though the moon isn’t the focus.

Thanks to dear friends, I’m alerted to photo opportunities! You know who you are! Thank you!
