From here the skyglow was too bright for a photo, by the time the moon cleared the mountains. An exceedingly thin crescent- I think this would have looked great from about the mid-atlantic, when the moon was closer to Venus and the sky would have been still sufficiently dark.
Hope you got a decent shot. I got a shiver seeing Sirius this morning. The summer is so fleeting. Especially when you don't get any time off! (Grrrr) --- Rob Ratkowski Photography <ratkwski@hawaii.rr.com> wrote:
Hey Chuck
It's 2:08AM here in Hawaii and I'm about ready to haul it to the top of Haleakala for the morning grouping. Coffee is made, car is packed and from what I see, summit wind is 1.37 mph, humidity 7.4% and IR cloud cam shows very little if any high cirrus.
