Denver, Atlanta, Greensboro Trip
Airport and city lights, taking off from Atlanta, not holding the camera very steadily, but it worked this time.

Lunar Conjunction
A picture from my porch of the mountains, my garage roofline, the moon, and two planets that were in conjunction this evening. The planets were Jupiter and Venus. This will happen again in May, 2011.
