<p>During our Big Sit at the Cape Henlopen Hawkwatch this year just before sunrise <a href="http://jeffreyagordon.com/" target="_blank">Jeff </a>took a break from counting birds to set up his camera hoping to catch the <a title="introduction to green flash" href="http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/GF/" target="_blank">green flash</a>&#8211; a very noble but difficult goal. We all patiently waited. FLASH! It was an instant. A wow moment. I don&#8217;t think Jeff got the photo but it was an amazing sight that is in my mind&#8217;s memory card. That is one of the best things about being married to a fantastic tour guide. He adds so much to my world.  He not only gives me the moon but shares with me the stars and planets and various celestial phenomenon.</p>

<p>Visit <a href="http://skyley.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Skywatch Friday</a>&#8211;it&#8217;s a cool blog to visit to see many other celestial photos from around the globe.  I find it fascinating to see other viewpoints on something we all share.  Enjoy.</p>
