Cat teeth + last night's big moon :)

[wraithfodder]

Since I managed, quite by accident, to catch this yawn, I felt I should immortalize it on the web. My cat:



And, took a few shots of last night's moon - you know, the fullest moon in the last 15 years. Not the best pictures, but what the hey ;)

 

From the back yard. There were some clouds too.





This was taken tonight by a reservoir. When I walked down to it I suddenly discovered that the path I'd taken last week was gone - it was filled with water. When I shined the flashlight around, I found out that we'd had so much rain that the reservoir was up by several feet!



The reservoir under moonlight..

Ha!

Yeah, I'm glad my friend called and said "Let's go to the bookstore!" as the reservoir was on the way :)

Love the pics - especially your cat - mine gives me his yawn, followed by his 'it's a hard life' look before going back to sleep.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the cat has such a hard life. I'm his slave.

oh wow. seriously wow. I was driving around and saw the moon. Didn't take the time to stop though. Are these full size? I'd love to see a larger shot of #3 if you happen to have it.

Had to use my coffee cat icon. Mine just gives me nasty looks if I interrupt their beauty sleep.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Heh, you kitty icon is cute! :)

Here's a larger shot of #3

Enjoy!

Glad you enjoyed the moon shots. Don't worry about the cat. He's terrified to leave the house! ;) I wasn't too keen on sheep after I caught in the middle of a stampede of 'em, but now, eh, I'm bigger ;)

Thanks for the pix. I went out to check the moon out last night but never thought of bringing my camera with me. It was such a bright, clear sky too. A few fluffy white clouds. Quite beautiful.

And nice catch of your cat! :)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'm sure there are tons better shots (with better cameras) on the web. Hmm, must check Flickr!

And yeah, glad the cat obliged. usually i never have a camera in hand when he yawns.

Well, I was all prepped to take shots of teh moonly awesomeness, even to getting the old tripod out ... and we had 8/8 cloudcover and freezing drizzle here in Southern England. *grrrr!*
Your shots are gorgeous, though. I love the second one with the trees. The last one is *amazing*. How long an exposure did that take?
And your cat frightens me ,,,,

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

We were lucky to have had a clear sky. Usually, always cloudy!

Let's see, the last one: Panasonic DMC-FZ7, 30 second, F28, ISO080, recording mode "Starry Sky"

Ah, the cat is harmless ... well, mostly.

[monkey-junkey.livejournal.com]

That is en epic lolcat.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Thanks :)

[alyssa22.livejournal.com]

Great photos! I love the yawn! And the moon.. amazing!

What sort of camera do you have?

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

It's a Panasonic DMC-FZ7; has a 12zoom, although wish it had come with a wide-angle. It may now as it's a few years old.

[alyssa22.livejournal.com]

Mine won't take decent night shots. They're all blurry and dark, no matter what sort of setting I use.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, I also used a tripod!

[mackenziesmomma.livejournal.com]

Wow, I so wish I could of seen the moon.

Instead we had hours 18-26 of snow. Then it stopped. But was still cloudy.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Well, at least it was snow, not ice! ;)

[leesa_perrie]

Ooh, those moon and reservoir shots are absolutely gorgeous! And as for the cat, LOL!! Is his name Rodney, by any chance?! *vbg*

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Nope, he's named Ian :) Yeah, the reservoir was gorgeous at night. Too bad there's not really a place to park for a few hours to just sit and watch. Although last night would have frozen me to death, i'm sure!

The cat picture made me think of Bela Lugosi: "I've come to suck your blood!"

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Heh, the little guy's drawn some blood here and there.

[highonstargate.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! What a timing!

And for the moon shot, Beautiful!

The moon back home was huge and beautiful! We were coming back from the video store, my dad and I and the moon was in front of us. I think it spanned almost 3/4 of the road! Too bad we didn't have a camera!

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

thanks! Yeah, I try to at least carry my small digital camera with me now, just in case. That's how I got the deer shot as I got it out of my purse quickly.

[abracah.livejournal.com]

Love the moon shots. I didn't think to take pics of it last night. I did get some from the Harvest Moon in Oct though. It is just relaxing to me to look at a full moon.

Great cat yawn too!

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

You can also check out flickr.com for some great moon shots too (last night and others). Yeah, the cat does have a good yawn! Nice fangs :)

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

But shouldn't you have been locked up on the full moon? ;)

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Ummm....
