In the Stars

Posted by Stephanie (Tuscaloosa, United States) on 27 November 2007 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

It is so cold outside and so clear. It's 42 degrees. In Alabama, that's just not right. So my bright idea was to take pictures of the lake, fog and stars. And the mystery animal huffing and puffing at me while my camera was exposing itself to the night sky for thirty seconds at a time.

It was well worth the "suspense" though. This is the view from my backyard right now. While I might enjoy it more away from the mystery animal huffing and puffing at me, I thought I'd share it with you.

I tried to flash the camera at the location where the animal was (which was just below the bushes in the lower portion of the image) and couldn't see anything, not even glowing eyes, when I looked on the computer. I guess I'll never know who my special new friend is. Maybe I don't want to know!
