MAY THE LOVE WE ALL FEEL DURING CHRISTMAS CONTINUE THROUGH OUT THE NEW YEAR
PEACE TO ALL
BLUE MOON 0F 12/09

I am staying in my daughters room here on the Big Island. The first morning here, I saw this little gecko on her curtains, went to get my camera and of course it was gone. The next morning it was back and I was able to get a picture of it. Lisa wanted to make sure that I scared it out but of course I didn't. Life would be no fun if I did that as she is scared of bugs, even tiny geckos. And yes I am A turkey for not listening to her.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL
MAY THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS CONTINUE THROUGH OUT THE YEAR

Yesterday I rushed home to try to get pictures of the full moon rising. As I came around Kahana Bay I could see it just starting to come up. Of course the car I was following was going the speed limit. When I got home I rushed in to get my camera and tripod and ran down to the very dark beach by my house. Felt better as a neighbor and his wife where already there. Setting up the tripod in the dark was fun. Here are 3 pictures. One just sharpened and the other two I messed with shot as and contrast in CS4. Don't know which one I really like. Was going to go back tonight but it's raining cats and dogs.
