A total lunar eclipse is visible tonight, straight out of my window. The sun, earth and the moon are on a straight line apparently, in that order.I wonder if that accounts for my mood. In a few hours, the moon disapears in front of my eyes and may reappear again while I am sleeping.
The moon slowly drifts out of my sight, like any other goal or dream I had in mind. Planes fly between my crapy camera lens and the moon, and I wonder if the passengers look at the moon and if they see it bigger. Also, if they reach up with their hands, they could touch the moon...sigh.
I didn't get to see the moon re-appear, but while dozing off to sleep, I unfortunately have to get real and realize bitterly that it is only I who decide how I feel. And so I am angry for a while, because I forgot to depend on myself. I will stop watching the parade, and walk away to go on my journey. That parade is only a collection of fake clowns, fake giants, cheap glitter, and loud ear tearing noise, disguising boredom, uselessness and aimlessness.
I missed the Haley comet a few (maybe decade) back. I'm glad I saw this one. And I even caught a blue moon. without using any filter or any sophisticated equipment...but the photos don't capture the rabbit on that side of the moon.

wow, excellent ! I was told yesterday afternoon about the eclipse ... So I missed it of course. Anyway, I was soooo sick that I did not even get up on saturday. I slept over 34 hours from fri night to sun morning ... Finally feeling a little better now. Plus, I got my computer back ! So I am reinstalling ...
Oh well, what I wanted to say: great photos !!! For a moment, I was wondering if you made them yourself :D I did not understand the rabbit story though ... Maybe some hallucinations I had while reading your blog :D
YES, those are my own pictures. I froze myself to death opening the window and snaping millions of pictures from a very awkward position as I was shaking all the time. And I had to stay up until 23:00 even if my body was begging me to go in the warm bedroom. This is my first ever eclipse I see and I have tons of pictures. I just had to crop most of them because the moon took about 20% of the frame..LOL
grats ! I would have loved to see you in that awkward position ! muahahha ! lol lol
Rabbit??????
