Need for a camera
The other day I was driving across Texas. Outside of the city lights, the stars were bright and numerous. I nearly pulled over to stop and just gaze up at them. I probably would have if I would have had my camera and tripod in my car with me. I spent the rest of the drive kicking myself for not bringing the tripod.
As I drove over a hill a gold light became visible in my rear view mirror. The moon was rising in the east directly behind me. It was golden due to the low spot on the horizon and it was gorgeous. In fact I was most impressed when an 18-wheeler crested the hill behind me and with the moon just so, it was a perfect photo, but only for a second. I really longed for my camera and tripod.
Beauty is everywhere and you never know when a great photo opportunity will present itself.
