this morning i sat on the porch and waited for enough light to ride my bicycle to school. it was 6am and i wanted to get to the anatomy lab early to review things like trochlear nerves and maxillary arteries and levator palpebrae superiorii and omohyoids and mylohyoids and thyrocervical trunks and foramen rotundums.

but for those few minutes on the porch, time stood still. the moon was spectacular. a cool breeze brought the hair on my arms to attention and kept the mosquitos at bay.

there are small moments in my life i will never forget and can never hope to put into words. sometimes i try to take a picture in an attempt to trigger the same sense of emotion when i look back at a later date. this is one of those photos.

today has been a spectacular day.
