moonless

i was cycling up to where i shoot from @ around ten to 6 and i looked behind me to check the moon was there and it was hanging in the sky, partly covered in cloud, looking beautiful...

as i set up the camera the moon quite quickly got swallowed up by the cloud that was in fact covering most of the western sky...

so i shot my video @ 6 with no moon to look at...

so that's not particularly hopeful... it had been an amazingly clear night before the first morning of filming and the sky was empty... it didn't take much cloud cover to knock out the moon this morning...

but we'll see... i'll do it at least until thursday when i'll be doing the dawn project several hours later... if i don't get another moon tomorrow or thursday then it's not worth doing...

that first shot from yesterday... slowly zooming out, with the sounds of the birds and the occasional train... and the moon, red and full in the middle...

that's what it's about...
