Project for a Recovering-Insomiac

The view of the sky from our cottage was amazing, especially during sunset, and I loved the colorful sky that never quite went dark. So I decided it would be a great idea to take pictures of the sky every half hour. No one thought I was really serious about the "project" although they agreed that it was a cool idea. Maybe I'm a little nuts to have stayed up all night to take pictures of starless sky, but it was amazing to observe the shifting shades of blue, orange, pink, and silver of the sky as the night went on. Here are some of the pictures from that evening.

The sun finally said good-bye at 10:23pm.

Between 2:30am and 3:00am was the darkest it ever got, which wasn't that dark at all.

MISSING

I must have dozed off and missed taking a photo. Oops!

It actually looks a bit darker at 6:30 than it did at 6:00.

That's only because it started to get quite foggy.

I decided this was a sign--for me to go to bed.

The End
