Super Moon 2012!


Super moon...Saturday May 5th. I didn't realize it until I uploaded
this picture onto my computer, but I think that's a jet contrail in front
of the moon. I'm glad the weather was clear last night. What a beautiful
sight!

It's a Bird, it's a Plane, it's Super Moon!


Last night was the so called "Super Moon" or "super perigee
moon" A super moon happens when the moon is slightly closer
to Earth in its orbit than on average. The last full Moon so big
and close to Earth occurred in March of 1993. I had my camera
set up on our deck on my tripod with my remote in hand waiting
to get an awesome shot of the super moon rising. One small
problem was the moon had to clear a cloud bank first.


I took this shot after the moon cleared the clouds. I hope you
got a great view of the "super moon" last night! BTW, today
is the first day of Spring! Happy Spring ya'll!!!

Experimental


Last night I was experimenting with camera
settings and took this picture of my owl wind
chimes against the full moon. Just some camera
fun :0) Enjoy!

It's Baaaaaaack!


Terry took these pictures before heading out for work this
morning. We had our lastest round of snowfall late yesterday
into last night. There wasn't much snow, maybe an inch or two,
but the roads were pretty icy. We had some sleet to fall before
it all changed over to snow.


Terry took our Jeep to work this morning. He said he had to put
it in four wheel drive just to get out of the driveway.


Beautiful full moon setting at 6:45 this morning.

Moon Rising on November 21


I took this picture from our deck as the moon
rose last night. It was so pretty with the color
reflecting off the clouds.
