Trying to capture a shooting star but all I got was bug bites. The big dipper was shining brightly.

There's a lot to love in this photo; such a sky, and I can appreciate the bug bites. If there's an insect in the county, it will seek me out and bite me! Julie in Ohio

About robb04047
robb04047 I have a full time job during the day which deals with workforce optimization. I have been fortunate to travel the country as well as Europe and Asia. My Frequent Flyer Miles replaced an old Minolta SLR that was stolen 20 years ago. I used my miles and purchased the Canon T1i. It was love at first click. Taking pictures helps me forget about all the bad things in the world. Photography forces you to focus solely on the intimate beauty of nature. I have thousands of photographs on display through Facebook. They are mostly available to friends only. If you are interested in seeing other photos I have taken, please send me a friend request and mention Weather Underground.
