Moonlight, Self-Portrait

The International Space Station was advertised to make a two-minute pass to the southwest and south tonight. When it showed up, it was actually visible for close to five minutes. I tried to take time exposures of it tracking across the sky, but those didn’t pan out. There was enough moonlight, though, to play with a long exposure of my shadow on the sidewalk.

Toilettes au Clair de Lune

We had a brilliant, clear evening last night, and a full moon. Turning the lights out before I went to bed, I noticed the way the moonlight was coming into the house, especially through the skylights. And this–this was the scene in the bathroom, which I couldn’t quite pass up. I’ve never seen the toilet in quite this light before. Toilet by moonlight; toilettes au claire de lune; toilet as seen by a real loon.
