This was taken around the same time as yesterday's post of the grosbeaks, around 8:30 PM. I loved the lighting
I stayed up until 1:00 a.m.to watch the special August moon but sadly did not get to see the meteors I had hoped to see, instead I saw a jigsaw puzzle cloud sky as shown here in my collage. Never-the-less it was fascinating.
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️
Photo taken in Wilton, NH, USA. We were photographing the Milky Way when a large jet flew across the frame. The jet lighting provided an interesting focus on the galaxy lights.

Mt. Rainier National Park, Washington.
A friend and I went to watch the Perseid meteor shower in sunrise. (Thanks Gwen for the location!) I stayed up all night and enjoyed the view while trying to capture some meteors in my shots. I'm still new to night photography so the quality isn't all that great. Regardless I am still happy with this shot.
UP 622 finishes up the evening's switching on Fox Avenue South having spotting a pair of tanks at Cascade Columbia Distribution along Union Pacific's East Marginal Way Lead. The track to the left continues down the street for another block or so but hasn't seen any use in probably decades. Seattle, WA
I must say, I was shocked when I saw how nighttime changes an owl's face. While they become fearsome predators at night, they also become much more adorable to us humans, who have evolved to perceive large eyes as captivating and innocent.
In an effort to find area barred owls, I set out to a local park before sunrise and came upon this Eastern Screech Owl (Megascops asio) in the dark. This darkness was so inky and thick, in fact, that I could not see if he was in his hole or not, so trained my tripoded camera on the hole, manually focused, and finally saw him in the preview window! Shocked for sure by those massive pupils staring down at me, a frog (which he swallowed greedily prior to this photo and while I watched) in his talons!
Interestingly, owl eyeballs are not balls at all, but so well evolved for night vision that they have elongated into eye cones. For this reason, they cannot move their eyes in their sockets, and have evolved wildly-flexible necks. With their highly acute retinas replete with rods (the light and movement sensing eye bits), there wasn't much room for cones, and so most owls see limited or no color!
When I took this unconventional picture capture, I was thinking of a melody that would capture it.
One song sounded in my head. It is called in free translation: "When it rains"
But there is no rain in the picture.
However, the song kept coming back to me and I finally said to myself that it doesn't really matter, it depends on the atmosphere and moreover the song is also about darkness and that is crucial in the picture :)
You don't even have to know the lyrics, just listen to the emotional song of the BSP group. Kamil Střihavka sings and Michal Pavlíček (one of the best Czech guitarists) plays an amazing guitar solo in the middle of the song

Když se snáší déšť
S tmou se kříží
Když se snáší déšť
S tmou se kříží
Když se snáší déšť
Můžem jít
Nacházet své stíny
Sedlou krev těch dní
Když se snáší déšť
(v tajemných snech dvorů)
S tmou se kříží
(a s leskem střech)
Když se snáší déšť
(do mlčení stromů)
S tmou se kříží
(smrt v ulicích)
Když se snáší déšť
(dál můžem kráčet)
Můžem jít
(smrt v útěcích)
Nacházet své dávno
(své dávno míjet)
Sedlou krev těch dní
(sedlou krev těch dní)
Když se snáší déšť
Proč vnímat dál, co není
Soupis loňských vražd
Víc už není
Když se snáší déšť
Víc už není
Když se snáší déšť
Říjen spí
Řekni odkud jdem
Dál a deštěm
Řekni odkud jdem
S tmou se zkřížit
Když se snáší déšť / Na beton a louky
Sám jen navždy / Na nárožích
Jak pláč a píseň / Dál říjen spí
Když se snáší déšť
S tmou se kříží
Když se snáší déšť
S tmou se kříží

I took a lot, I mean a lot, of lousy Bald Cypress images this past week. Oh well, learning experience. One of the exceptions is this image of one of my friends that coaxed me to go kayaking for a week, in the cold and, as you can see, at night sometimes. This picture, for me anyway, is the reward.
Take care out there!
