I've been wanting to come to this rest area on this highway for awhile now.  Tonight seemed perfect.  It was a beautiful night and the sky was full of stars.  But within minutes of arriving, clouds streamed across the sky and completely covered the stars.  Having made the drive, I wasn't really in a mood to just give up and go home.  So I started experimenting and after a half dozen test shots, dialed in on something interesting.

It's not the photo I wanted but I am happy with it.  Sometimes you just have to think a little harder and keep trying when things don't go quite right.
