Super moon downsizing

It is a week later and the super moon of 2011 in on the wane this morning.  So sorry to see it downsizing.  The moon will not be this close to the earth for another 18 years, 2029.  Hmmmm, wonder if I will be here for it?!

Big Moon Shadow

Our big moon night was a little too hazy  with thin clouds hanging around, so here it is with a shadow or two to set it off.  The night before it was dazzling, but I thought I would wait for the full-moon version.  Mistake!  First day of Spring resolution: no more camera-procrastination.

For much more intriguing shadows, visit Hey Harriet's Shadow Shot Sunday.

Morning moon

This simply beautiful waning moon brought me joy on a cold January 31st morning!

More skies await you at Skywatch Friday.

Now you see it

Last night's moon floating above the almost-colored cloud, but tonight it will disappear a while, giving us a solstice when even the light of the moon leaves us.  Time to wear our wreath of candles and bring back the light!
