There It Was

After several attempts to see the Moon, I was finally able to get a decent picture.  I watched the Moon gradually rise, and while I could see it behind a bunch of clouds, there was no way to get a good picture.  And then, all of a sudden.....there it was!!  Here is what I saw.

I took this picture on Saturday, September 8, 2012 from the deck on the back of  my house in Moody at 12:30am.  The Moon was surrounded by clouds but was clearly visible.  Tonight, we are able to see the Last Quarter Moon as it continues to wane giving less and less illumination.
