The camera you have with you

I had to cover a city meeting tonight for the paper. After supper, I put on my jacket and headed out. Arriving early, I sat in the truck listening to a book by Walter Mosley.  

I didn't sleep well last night so I've been dragging today. I rolled the window down to let some cool air stir. It felt refreshing on my face.

When I glanced at the sky, I could see the Moon with Venus on its coat tail. It was a quarter moon, and if I'd had my big Camera with me I could have placed it on a tripod and gotten a much better picture. But I'd left it at home.

Pulling the phone from my pocket, I Noticed that light from the city hall provided foreground light in the trees near the street.

The picture made the moon look full, but the light in the trees in the foreground looks surrealistic.

I'm not sure I would have noticed that if I'd had the professional camera. I read once that the best camera in the world is the one you have with you. I tend to agree.
