Went out for the evening to watch the moon but here in NE Texas the clouds covered most of the show. We did however have a glorious sunset so I thought I'd share a pic from this evenings sunset as my first one ever here on this forum.
Taken with the Sony a7 + Nikon 28mm f/2.8 AIS - f/16 I think, ISO 100 1/10s

I set it. I Crawled out of the bed, I managed to grab the MTO 1000 and carry it outside in what felt like freezing cold. I mounted lens and camera on the tripod with my eyes still closed, just to discover that the sky was completely covered with clouds, and no moon was visible anywhere. I waited 15 minutes and then went back to sleep.

The weather cooperated for the big event here in the desert Southwest. So was able to capitalize on it.
We also had a nice sunset to start the main event....Taken with a Tamron SP 01A.
