The Terminator

The lunar phase of the moon is the illuminated portion which varies cyclically as the moon orbits the earth. The boundary between the illuminated and the dark portions is called the terminator. (Wickipedia)

The Tin Star Ranch deer "terminator" rose long before dawn this fine morn and ascended the venison acquisition structure intent on harvesting the next round of sausage, jerky, backstrap, and chili meat.

The forest varmits failed to cooperate, but the slightest hint of the waning moon phase rose about 6:15AM as a crescent greeting against the brilliance of the morning stars.

Precious are the moments spent in the velvet smooth of morning darkness viewing the heavenly panoramic orb of God's creation as defined by His shadowy terminator.

Who cares about deer hunting anyway?
