Gorgeous!!

The Moon is absolutely gorgeous tonight!  I am thrilled to have gotten two good pictures today.  Here they are.

                          

Both pictures were taken on the street in front of my house in Moody on Wednesday, August 22, 2012. The first picture was taken at 7:10pm, and the second picture was taken at 8:15pm.  What a difference an hour makes!  I think that both are good pictures, but the second one is so much more vivid as the contrast between the darkness and the Moon's illumination is observed.  I can certainly see why viewing the Moon at night allows for more clarity.
