Sleepless

So this one morning, I was all alone at home, and I got up early, really early. The sun wasn't out, and I had spent an hour trying to go to sleep, so I decided to make the most of the early hour. Stepping out I realized that it was drizzling and my camera isn't weather proof, so I stayed indoors, clicking my most faithful and patient subject, the tree outside my window. The security lights were on, and the sun was illuminating the clouds. I took a bundle of books from my bedside, and placed it on the window sill, placing my camera over it (I still don't own a tripod). Clicking without a shutter release is trickier when the camera is peculiarly balanced. I managed to get 2 shots, one with a lot of shake, and one without, before the security lights were shut off, and the scene didn't appear as lively as it did a few minutes ago.
