Starlight Starbright...

 Did you ever sing that little diddy as a kid?

Starlight starbright
the first star I see tonight
I wish I may 
I wish I might
Have the wish
I wish tonight...

I got an Aurora Borealis alert on my phone that said I had a 20% chance of seeing the Northern Lights last night. I knew with the overcast sky that seeing anything would be slim to none.

But I decided to walk up to the meadow the other night after putting hubby to bed and do some sky gazing.


I didn't see the Aurora, but I was surprised by Fireflies flitting through the warm air current in the meadow. The sky was overcast and the Fireflies were just floating around. I used my headlamp to light up the grass in front of me a bit.

I recorded the songs of Coyotes singing for their evening hunt. It can send chills up your spine no matter how many times you hear it.

This has been another crazy busy week. Monday was quiet. Tuesday was delivery of the hospital bed and re-organizing the room with a visit from the Social Worker.

Wednesday was our mini trip with Steve. I won't bore you with the rest of the schedule. Just enough to say, I was tired most of Thursday so I laid down to read a book and took a cat nap.

I'm looking forward to a quiet Saturday to mow the yard after doing the dump thing. 

Here are some of the candle Ent Dudes I got the other day, the first shot is with Groot, the Christmas Ornament.





I did these shots in my succulent garden. I used a little light inside to light up the glass marble eyes. I use lights in these but not candles as we have oxygen in use at home.

I can see that there are some fun possibilities with these sculptures...


I'm looking forward to a clear night over the weekend so I can get out and enjoy shooting the Milky Way.
