Only one chance in this lifetime…
Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.
I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.
🍾 A FINE CHARDONNAY ($6.82) toasts the field as she flies by them in the lane of the $400,000 Beaumont Stakes (G2) at @keenelandracing. @IanWilkesRacing sent out the 3YO filly with @b_hernandezjr in the saddle.

A track record! #2 TOUCHUPONASTAR ($4.40) is now over $2 million in career earnings after going gate-to-wire in the $500,000 New Orleans Classic (G2) at @Fairgroundsnola. He has now won 21 of his 28 career races. @jockeypedrozajr was up for trainer Jeff Delhomme and owner Set-Hut (Jake Delhomme).
