Bummer

6 years 2 months ago - 6 years 2 months ago #563690 by Alex
It's tough for me during weekdays to get out and take photos.   I'm on month #2 of my 'News cleanse' (remove all news apps from my phone) and avoid all news.  If it's important enough, someone will tell me about it.  

So... during down times, I spend more time looking at my photography apps. 

And more aware of all the amazing conditions I missed out on.  Today... MySunset app was showing:

Look at those 100's!  



and I checked out the web cam on my phone for Huntington Beach Pier, and aside from their web cam needs a serious washing, check out this killer sun set and clouds!

BUMMER!!

Yep. Tomorrow morning, lunar eclipse, got permission to use an 8th floor deck for a downtown skyline shot, and parking is a breeze.

This morning I could not see the moon for the haze and/or clouds. :angry:

I hope things are reasonably clear tomorrow morning.

We'll have a clear morning here in the north east....because the moon will dip below the horizon about the time the eclipse begins.....:angry:

Why so serious?
