At random: Leonardo da Vinci, the Florentine Renaissance inventor and artist, developed plans for an underwater warship but kept them secret. He was afraid that it would make war even more frightful than it already was.

The moon's orbital plane is tilted relative to our equator (just asearth's is, relative to the sun), so a full moon can rise anywhere fromthe SE to the NE. I live in the Catalina foothills area of Tucson, andthought if I drove a few miles north before sundown when the full moonrose in the NE I could get lucky as, in winter, the Santa Catalina Mountains glow withcolor in the early and late hours.

This shot was taken minutes beforesundown on Jan 21, 2008. By the time the moon was fully risen the evening colors on the mountains began to fade, so I caught the scene at its optimum in this shot. I submitted this shot to Arizona Highways photo contest last year.

That's Thimble Peak to the left of the rising moon; Thimble is near the upper reaches of the Sabino Canyon, a very popular hiking and rock climbing destination in Tucson.

On all my hundreds of trips to the "Left" Coast from here, Chasn, I've told my wife, that for near nothing west of Ft. Worth I see something different everytime. West Texas, Arizona and New Mexico have some of the most beautiful landscapes. The sunrises and sunsets are have some amazing color changes.

Finally found the one of my grandson when he was 7 years old that I really like;
obviously this whole picture thing throws me for a loop; you have to scroll over to the right to see him

Between you and Don my grandson is receiving all kinds of publicity. He's 14 now and over 6 feet tall; I may have to embarass him with that photo.

You are welcome.  I'm sure there will be just a bit of a "twinge"...our grandson just turned 15 in Dec...he's not 6 ft. tall...but he can look me in the eye, so he's getting there...and does the same thing when we drag out the "little guy" pictures.

You're right. Went off & verified it elsewhere - dome is for the AN/BQS-2 active sonar. I never had one of those things, which had a pretty bad reputation.

 I took so many on the Cruise, but I think this one shows how things are changing up there...the other one should be familiar to all you Seattle area folks...
