the view from my backyard was perfect for tonight's lunar eclipse...and it was absolutely beautiful. just like the meteor shower on aug 13th of this month, there's something so completely soothing about staring up at the cosmos and feeling at peace. too bad my camera couldn't take pictures of it in that lighting and distance, but the silhouette of the palm trees framed the moon ever so nicely.

now i'm up at 350am and will be tired as heck in the morning, but some things are in life are definitely worth it.
