Sky Watch

Mooooonlight

This picture was taken on my way home at 02.30 in the morning, the moon was visable but the night never seemed to darken. The sunrise was still 2 hour away, which I didn't get to see as I was snoring and dreaming of a new camera.

Alas I have no P.C. so Tom dose the blog for me... I would just like to thank all who call by here daily and all my Sky Watch friends for there comments and support.

It is well known that we Portuguese once sailed the seven seas searching for new lands, wealth and adventures.
We were brave in those days and gave the world new worlds!

Luckily I don’t have to sail the big oceans on a small ship to sea the wonders of our world …
No Sir, I just need to check with Mr. Tom, the finest host there is, for a trip around the world with SKY WATCH TOURS and with a click here, a click there I am quickly in the USA, England, Brazil, Italy, China, Australia, Finland … well, everywhere.

And on each stop I come to see a little marvel of our world under a great sky!
Hope you can come and see my piece of the sky at lenses & visions

I think this is going to be the best Sky Watch Friday yet. The things I have seen are very encouraging

and the photography is spot on.

I really admire your photography skills and your critical eye for composition, lighting and texture.
