Last night's eclipse was not visible in my neck of the woods, but the moon itself looked amazing. A gigantic, perfectly round, ball of light. At first I could not fnd it because it was so close to the horizon rather than higher up in the sky where I expected it to be. But then, just as I was about to turn around and head back into my building, I caught a glimpse of it that took my breath away. It was the biggest, brightest full moon I have ever seen.
Unfortunately, neither my cell phone nor my camera captured any of the detail on its surface, but I did wind up with some interesting, unexpected effects, such as this shot on the right that looks as though there are several other small "moons" below the real one.
Beautiful captures.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo comparing the real moon to the man-made lights. God's light wins every time!
ReplyDeleteI missed the full moon but you got some great photos. Ginny is right - God's light wins.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea there was an eclipse last night! The moon photos are incredible.
