It was beautiful driving in this morning. The dawn was just coming in enough to make the bottom of the sky red. When I come in the back way, I can see the back of the air museum. The fog was hanging off the fields at about waist-height and no higher, and there was the smallest sliver of moon almost ready to set.
So I ditched off the road onto an access road for two of our wells and a cell tower so I could line the moon up with my tower in the distance and avoid the power lines. And with those three things lined up, I seredipitously had the silhouette of one of the planes, maybe the B52, in the photo too. I took a bunch there on assorted settings.
Then I realized that the sky was still pretty, so I backed out and drove around to the front entrance to try to line the moon up with the tower at a closer distance. By then though, the sky was getting so light that the moon was kind of hard to pick out, but I got some red dawn clouds hanging around in the background.
Once I finally decided to just go on in to work, the air control tower was framed by purple clouds to the north, so I hopped out and got a couple of pictures of that too.
Twenty minutes late, and I finally made it in to the office. But you have to catch these things when you see them, or else you never will.

I am so jealous. Vegas AND playing with dry ice? Shit, can your life get any cooler?
And here I am getting the house ready for um…company. Salacious details to follow. ~LA
