Excellent catch! Always smart to take insurance shots through the glass before you open the door. Good sun & Moon, the colors pretty much routine here as well. Into the third day of rain, should wash out some of it!


Hi quixdraw
Thanks for viewing the photos and for the comment. I have learned that it is always better to get a few images through the window/glass door before trying to open the door to get a cleaner image, since most of the critters run away when they see a door or window open. The sun and moon do have interesting colors with the smoke, but after more than a month I'm really look forward to the smoke ending. For now I'm planning to head to the coast early next week to get out of this stuff for awhile.

After taking a shot of yet another smoky sunset I went back inside an saw a visitor in the backyard. This guy was thirsty and getting a drink out of a large bucket I have outside for the local critters. Normally I see birds, deer and squirrels using the bucket, but today a bobcat found it. (This bucket is a temporary solution and I have started work on extending the back patio a bit and adding in a nice fountain). In any case the first shot below is of the sunset followed by multiple shots of the bobcat (unfortunately I had to take them through a sliding glass door as ran off when I tried to slowly open the door for a cleaner shot). The final shot is how the moon looked later that night (this was the actual color of moon due to all the smoke even though it was high in the sky). All comments, questions and suggestions are welcome.

He doesn't look overly fed, but at least he has water. Nice sharp moon pic.
