After taking pictures of the full moon rising this evening, I pointed my camera in the other direction to try and improve on my previous attempts to take pictures of the stars.

Other pictures of the moonrise and stars to follow at some point, but I thought you astronomy buffs might appreciate this one. ☺

This is the facade of the EUROPEAN first floor (our second floor). The family lived on this floor. The windows have beautiful stained glass. Note the beautiful stone columns.
This was taken at a reggea fest. The sun was just setting, but I was quite tall enough to get the sun. :)

I didn't make flyers (no spare time this weekend; wall-to-wall set carpentry), but wanted to let my co-workers know about the upcoming gig. *Obviously*, Dry-Erase on my office window was just the thing.
