I was outside early (enough) a few mornings ago. I saw the setting moon. So….<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This first photo I took at 6:34.<\/p>\n

\"Setting<\/a>
\nThe (full?) moon vanishing behind the trees<\/i><\/div>\n
\"Setting<\/a>
\nThere sets the moon.<\/i><\/div>\n

I decided to self-inflict myself on the photo. So I used a railroad tie fence post for a unipod. I had to run back and forth a few times. In rubber boots. I was getting winded. Here’s the photo I chose in that particular batch:<\/p>\n

\"Mark<\/a>
\nWhere’s the moon?<\/i><\/div>\n

I decided I should also get some rising sun pictures. So I went trudging off in the other direction. First, though, I went into the house for a bit. Among the things I saw, this:<\/p>\n

\"November<\/a>
\nIt was cold! (And I hadn’t changed the time back an hour yet)<\/i><\/div>\n

I went back out and kept chugging east. But I didn’t get far before I heard geese honking.<\/p>\n

I whipped off a quick shot before they vanished…and missed focusing on them:<\/p>\n

\"geese<\/a>
\nof leaves and leaving geese<\/i><\/div>\n

Finally, I made it out into the other pasture. Since the sun had not yet risen, I shot another skyward salvo:<\/p>\n

\"limp<\/a>
\nlimp against the dawning sky our windsock doth limply fly<\/i><\/div>\n

At 6:56, this shot:<\/p>\n

\"sun<\/a>
\nSomewhere around here there’s got to be a sunrise.<\/i><\/div>\n

At seven o’clock, while I waited for the sunrise to show me the sun, I took a cellphone photo of my PhotoWeapon on another UniPod (this one helping hold up the wind sock pole):<\/p>\n

\"Mark<\/a>
\noldie but goodie<\/i><\/div>\n

At 7:04, there comes the sun, folks!<\/p>\n

\"red<\/a>
\nNow the day is broken!<\/i><\/div>\n
\"there<\/a>
\nThere comes the sun finally!<\/i><\/div>\n
\"sun<\/a>
\nzoomed in with my powerful 3X<\/i><\/div>\n
\"sun<\/a>
\ncow path to the rising sun<\/i><\/div>\n
\"sun<\/a>
\nsame cowpath; same sun; dog added<\/i><\/div>\n
\"sun<\/a>
\npaths for the rising sun<\/i><\/div>\n

By the time I shot that last one, it was 7:07.<\/p>\n

Then, shortly after five that evening, I remembered one of my morning ideas: Get Some Day’s End Photos Also<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Alas, I was too late to get the full moon rising. This 5:09 shot will have to do:<\/p>\n

\"moon<\/a>
\nmoon rise by Mt. Hood<\/i><\/div>\n

I wasn’t able to get the sunset. Which is a good thing, since this post is suffering from Dreary Photo Overload.<\/p>\n
