moon and planet

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2023.10.29

I don't know that I've ever seen an evening sky as clear as the one over Tokyo right now. The almost-full moon is casting so much reflection it's not really dark outside, and there's a conspicuously large Jupiter parked a few degrees to the north-west. I managed to shoot a couple of frames of the moon but the planet wasn't well exposed. I guess winter is coming when you have clear air around here!

rand()m quote

I feel fortunate that I enjoyed the blandishments of modernity. I had hip replacement and root canal. I was able to travel on airplanes. I was able to take cheap food for granted. I went to the movies. I enjoyed rock 'n' roll. And now I'm ready to move on.
