One Year Ago Today ... January 24, 2016

A year ago today this is what the moon looked like!

So beautiful!

I took these right outside my house.






I really like how it looks so different in each stage of zooming in.

I hope you all have a great day my friends.

Our hope in sharing these pictures with you is that they will bless you as much as they bless us. 
Our world is truly amazing! 

We sure enjoy sharing our love of the beauty of the moon with you.  
Thank You For Sharing In My Luna Delight!

Many blessings to you!

January 21, 2017 6:00am Moon


I have missed the moon!
We have been so cloudy lately that we haven't been able to go out to admire and take pictures of our dear Luna.

 

I just happened to be letting the dog out and there was the moon!


I had to wait for Sugar to come back in so he wouldn't be barking while I was out with the camera.
At 6:00am on a Saturday morning ... 


I have some comparison pictures that I will show you in my next post.


We're zooming in and getting closer!



And there she is!


Just beautiful!


Many details to look at this morning.


Our hope in sharing these pictures with you is that they will bless you as much as they bless us. 


Our world is truly amazing! 


We sure enjoy sharing our love of the beauty of the moon with you.  


Thank You For Sharing In My Luna Delight!



Many blessings to you!

Full Moon, by Walter de la Mare



FULL MOON

One night as Dick lay fast asleep,
     Into his drowsy eyes

A great still light began to creep
     From out the silent skies.

It was the lovely moon's, for when
     He raised his dreamy head,

Her surge of silver filled the pane
     And streamed across his bed.

So, for a while, each gazed at each-
     Dick and the solemn moon-

Till, climbing slowly on her way,
     She vanished, and was gone.

January 12, 2017 Wolf Moon Full Moon


Tonight is the full moon!
It is 2:00am as I write out this post.


Doug took the pictures this evening.
He went out three different times
He took these first two as the moon was just coming up over our hill and trees.


He went out again once it was up over the trees.


It was really shining tonight.


Just lovely.







He went out the third time right before he went to bed.


Much higher in our sky at this time.


It amazes me how the color is different for these later pictures.


We hope you are blessed with many blessings this night.


May Peace, Love and Light prevail.


Our hope in sharing these pictures with you is that they will bless you as much as they bless us.

January 10, 2017 Tuesday


The moon is glorious this evening.


It’s 30 degrees right now at 11:14pm in Hannibal, Missouri! 


The moon is shining so brightly that we don’t even need to turn the porch light on when we are outside with the dogs. 


Casting lots of shadows out there.


We discovered a new setting on our camera and it seems to us that the moon pictures are a bit clearer with this setting than the pictures we have previously taken. 


These picture are unedited … straight off of the camera.


Such a sweet peace came over me when looking at the moon this evening.


I could sit outside with some music on and look at the moon for hours and hours. 


If only it was just a little bit warmer out there.
Maybe I need to get a sleeping bag. 


That’s how I used to lay and look at the moon and the stars. 
Kept me nice and toasty. 


These pictures are courtesy of my husband, Doug, who tends to take most of the winter time moon pictures. 


Thank you sweetheart.


Our hope in sharing these pictures with you is that they will bless you as much as they bless us. 

Our world is truly amazing! 
We sure enjoy sharing our love of the beauty of the moon with you.

The Moon January 6, 2017

Oh my goodness!
What a beautiful moon this is!


It has been a cold day ... 0 degrees in the sunshine!
2 degrees at the time these pictures were taken by my husband, Doug.
Thank you so much for going out in the cold night to get these pictures for us!
It is so much appreciated!


It was a cold, clear and crisp night ...
Look at the details of this moon!


Just fabulous!


When you click on them to enlarge them, they are just breath taking!


I don't always enjoy this cold weather ...


But I sure do enjoy the crisp clarity that it provides!


As he zooms back out look at the detail in the next picture!


Our hope in sharing these pictures with you is that they will bless you as much as they bless us.  


Our world is truly amazing!  

We sure enjoy sharing our love of the beauty of the moon with you.
