Skywatch Friday: Foal in twilight

I took this picture last week as the sun was setting, immediately following a light rain. I opened up the picture in Photoshop just to adjust the shadows in the foreground because it was nothing but black. This little foal came up to the edge of the fence to see what was going on.

Readers are encouraged to visit Tom Wigley's site where he hosts Skywatch Friday every week. Thanks, Tom, for being our host!

Have a great Friday, everyone,

and a great 4th of July Weekend!

Skywatch Friday first attempt

I don't know why I haven't done a Skywatch post until now. Annie, over at The Tombstone Chronicler, suggested several weeks ago that I do a Skywatch post link at Tom Wiggley's site. He has a huge following and it's interesting to go to his blog on a Friday and see all the links to people's sky posts.

So give him a visit, if you have a few minutes. Last Friday was a record response for him. 248 people posted their Skywatch picture!

I took this picture last week and was going to use it for last Friday's Skywatch, but something else came up. I took it standing at my sliding glass door one evening last week. You can see the door on the right and I left it there because I wanted to emphasize the view I have from my back door. Plus that's as far as I could go without my camera getting wet.

It was raining that evening, very gently, but the sun was bursting through that big cloud there. I took several pictures, but none of them showed any trace of the rain.

Have a wonderful Friday, everyone!
