Well this has been a busy week and right now I'm running out of gas -- just not enough time for sleep. I've been getting to bed really late and then getting up really early -- on Wednesday morning it was to go chase the sunrise. But the sunrise was just not happening -- the cloud bank was too low, totally obscuring anything that might be rendered colorful.
So I turned around and started coming on home. And then I saw it -- the moon over my beloved Mount Tamalpais -- no time to set up a tripod -- this was going to have to be one of those "out the car door shots". Snap. Had I been just a minute earlier I could have had a bit more clouds impinging on the moon. Had I some time to fool around I may have been able to get my exposure and contrast right (maybe a set of HDR exposures) so I could have rendered some detail on the surface of the moon.

That little finger of land in the distance is Point Reyes.

And that's a rainbow -- a SURE sign that the rapture is going to happen and the world as we know it is going to end on Saturday.

Your no tripod no settings shot is great, plus it has that bonus bird! I'm all prepared for the rapture tomorrow... given all my belongings away, kissed the kids, will party big tonight. Wait a minute, I'll still be here Sunday. Hey, I need my stuff back!
Hey HOOLY -- you are a hoot!
