SkyWatch ~ Sunset, Moonrise, Moonset

Still remembering our wonderful 38 hour holiday in Moonta

Bay and this red sunset over the sea.

The fishing improved as the moon rose.

I awoke at 4a.m. to the full moon preparing for bed.

Needless to say, I was out of my bed and up two flights of

stairs, grabbed my camera and in my best birthday suit

(perish the thought), sprinkled with stardust and moon

glow and out on the balcony in a flash. If a stray dolphin

saw me, good luck to him!

This is the actual moonset with very little light and no tripod,

it is a little fuzzy just as I was with all this excitement.

hosted this meme continuously for years.

SkyWatch ~ Equinox Sunrise - Moonset

The full moon flees from a purple sky and dashes over the

hill top chased by the red glow of the rising sun.

The sun meanwhile bursts on the scene shooting a victory sign

high into the the retreating darkness

and shows her glory in a blaze of gold

setting the sky alight with a roaring fire.

With this God given glory, I wish each and everyone of you a

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . HAPPY NEW YEAR . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

May whatever God you believe in smile upon you and keep you

in good health, give you someone to love and of all things enough!

SkyWatch ~ 37 The Moon and I

Just click on the photo and blast right into heaven!

The sunset was brilliant and I thought that was that



but the the moon rose full, and beautiful
with still a hint of colour left in the sky



near by, a last farewell from the sun as she pulled
up the covers and said day was done



I could not sleep and crept outside into the cold
winter night to be met by this delightful sight



the full moon deep in the Werstern sky,
lighting the clouds as he passed by
and I with joy and awe in my heart
sought my warm bed my sleep to re-start.

If you enlarge the last photo you will see the stars as well.

To the whole SkyWatch Team, so many of us truly
love this meme.
