Sept 29, 2015 Canandaigua Connected ENewsletter

Did anyone stay up to see the lunar eclipse and the red moon that followed? Here is a great photo taken by Steve Chesler Photography. It was taken from his cell phone which amazes me but maybe the professionals just try harder because I didn't even attempt for a pic on my IPhone. I just recognized it as something for the naked eye to take in and left it at that. Beautiful picture. It just looked so surreal, almost suspended up there after the eclipse.  It was just a glowing ball hanging proudly in the clear, dark sky. Thursday is the first day of October already. Enjoy!

Blue Skies,
