The next couple of nights, if you go outside waaaaaay after dark - look up! You might see a falling star! It's time for the annual Perseids meteor shower, so of course, I got up at 3:30 this morning and sat in the road with my camera and tripod trying to photograph a meteor. I saw plenty! But, like the title says, I never had my camera pointed the right way at the right time. And that's pretty much the story of my life, always being focused on the wrong thing, when important things are happening all around me. Although I did get a nice photo of the small constellation Andromeda (that's the little cluster on the right), it wasn't what I hoped for.... But, just like in life, all I can do is get back out there tonight and try again! :)
