I just admired the moon while driving home from work last night. I thought 
of pulling over and taking a picture of the moon and its reflection in the 
Mediterranean but by the time I passed a good spot for that, clouds had 
moved in. Some things are best just ?photographed? with the eye.

Cheers,
Nathan
