Scared Heart

My son’s team had a basketball tournament this weekend and we played all our games at the Sacred Heart School in Halifax. I had walked and driven past many times but never been inside or paid attention to it at night. This was after a game and it was slightly snowy and rainy.

Ceiling

Laying in bed with my youngest tonight for a few minutes after reading him some Christmas stories we looked up talking about our day at his fun ceiling.

Nighttime Georges Island

The other night we went with another family to the Evergreen festival in Halifax. They have decorations, a market, lots of lights, and other fun things to do outside. It was a beautiful night along the waterfront. While some of the family was going through a light up maze I walked over and got this…

Moon

Seems to be something I struggle with too often. Out for a walk on a clear night with a full moon. It looks so nice so I want to take a picture and share it. Problem is the moon is I can never get a good picture with my iPhone. This one turned out alright,…

ISS fly by
This was from last night off the back deck again. I’m really liking these night sky pictures. I was a little late getting the camera all set up so I missed some of the start of the track. It still turned out pretty good though catching the International Space Station traveling above the Big Dipper.

Headlight trails

Lighted bridge
With the shorter days I’ve wanted to get better at night photography. I’ll find some new things to photograph but for now I really like this bridge so I may try it out from other angles in the future.

Wet, dark, dog walk
It’s been raining off and on most of the day. Shortly after supper I took the dog out for a walk as it seemed like it had stopped. It hadn’t, but it wasn’t very heavy. The street lights were reflecting off the wet pavement and it was like a mist in the air. The temperatures…

Partial lunar eclipse
This morning there was a total lunar eclipse. I was out early ready with my tripod and phone going to get a picture. Things were looking pretty good. The partial eclipse started and I had a good view from my back deck. Not long after though the clouds came in. For a while I thought…
