I am thankful for the beauty of a full moon.
Last night we had a full moon. It was both bright and shadowy giving hints of craters. Occasionally, thin clouds covered it, but mostly it was in view. What I always find amazing is how bright the moon can be and how, it can light your way in the dark. For this beautiful moon in the night sky, I am thankful.
Just in case you were wondering:
Great picture! I think it would be fun to do more stargazing, but I like to sleep at night. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. When I try to capture what I see in the sky is when I want a better camera. My eye can see so much more than a fuzzy blob. However, last night there were some interesting clouds framing the moon that made the picture better than it might have otherwise been.
DeleteWard has a telescope and went through an astronomy phase. I'm not that much into stargazing, but was thrilled to see the rings around Saturn, moons of Jupiter, etc. He's still interested, but hasn't had time for it for a while. Maybe he will pick it up again sometime.
That is an awesome picture!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteI really like the moon in pictures but I really don't like it when it's full moon out, hahaha. Firstly, I really seem to be more cranky when it's a full moon, and secondly I don't sleep as well when it's so bright outside. I wish we had shutters here just like in France.
ReplyDeleteDo you think you're more cranky because you don't sleep as well? :)
DeleteThis moon was definitely bright enough that it lit the bedroom.
Oh well I tried to comment form the lake, but no dice. It was a beautiful moon and I am thankful for seeing it rise!
ReplyDeleteA full moon over the lake, that must have been a beautiful sight.
