july horizons

sky friday it is again. which makes me remember this sky photo i took last sunday, after getting up early, as my friend joined a day-long marathon that day that started at sunrise. getting out of the car, the moon greeted us on this last day of june.

 

back home i thought of the year, and the lines of the chinese horoscope it came with:
"This is a connecting year for you. 
Hence you would encounter many opportunities. 
Be prepared to work hard."
right now, the horizon - and my desk - seem to follow those lines. i guess i will be blogging less in the month to come. maybe move to shorter notes, to photo posts. on the other hand, blogging is a way to process things for me. and like everyone knows who joins a marathon: you have to balance your energy.

so here's a moment of balance from this friday afternoon.

I like how you used the tent(?) to filter the sun so you could expose the sky properly. Love the moon!
