Did you see the moon last night? They called it the Super Moon. It was the closest a full
moon will be to the earth during 2012! 14% bigger and 30% brighter, it was certainly
one to catch your attention! I went out at 11:40 P.M. EST to take some pictures!
Here it is above the trees in our yard.
And a little closer look with a 26X zoom.
Just lovely!
I had really weird dreams last night.
Could it have been the moon? ha.
♥
Great shots, Betsy!! Wasn't it beautiful?
ReplyDeleteIt was! And I guess on the other side of the world it was so bright it looked like daylight! ha.
Deletebeautiful shots, clouds block my view, thanks for sharing, the dreams, oh I would say the moon had a part in that for certain!
ReplyDeleteWe had complete cloud coverage early in the day and I thought maybe we wouldn't see it at all, but then it all blew over and was clear.
Deleteyeah...those dreams! Whew! lol.

ReplyDeleteHad a lot of work, the twins celebrate a friends birthday HERE LOL, all night at kitchen:)

And I was sure you will take some pictures to the moon you loves it!!! Thanks Betsy!!
Deleteyes...but you know, I might have missed it but Silver was the one that told me it was a special one...bigger and brighter. So, I have to give him the credit. I'm so glad, too, because it really was big and bright!
DeleteOh I am so good! When I saw that we were going to have a super moon I thought "I'll bet Betsy will blog about it" :) It was cloudy here so we couldn't see it. I was dissapointed! I slept like a log, a bear, a dog in the sun........anyway I slept hard and dreamed little. :)
ReplyDeletewow, now that is really sleeping hard. lol. I just slept...weirdly. hahaha.
Deletei also had strange dreams, but got out of bed before i could remember them. the moon was too high in the sky when i saw it to look very special. this last photo is so detailed and amazing.
ReplyDeleteI don't usually remember my dreams but these I did...haha...I need to look up the meanings on my favorite interpretation site. :)
DeleteI'm always so excited when I get a moon shot to look right...love those up close details..amazing!
Hey I didn't look yesterday! I really like the pics you have taken. The moon looks like is on the screen!
ReplyDeleteYou should check tonight...I bet it will still be amazing!
Deletewow, that's a big, bright moon! my son told me it kept him awake because it was shining in his face :) no dreams for him, haha
ReplyDeleteI believe it! It was incredibly bright....but I guess in other countries it was as bright as day!
Deletenice...glad you got a good view...we were cloud covered so i only got a few glimpses....very cool shots betsy
ReplyDeleteaw, sorry for the clouds. It was pretty neat!
Deletevery cool that you got a good look...we were covered in cloud so i only got a few glimpses...so thanks for the pictures...smiles.
ReplyDeletewell, thanks...again. ha. :)
Deleteoh my goodness, those pictuers are amazing!
ReplyDeletei had weird dreams too....totally think you are right....the MOON!
xo
a few people have mentioned the dreams...HAD to be the moon! haha.
DeleteGreat shots as you stayed up late
ReplyDeleteDown at your gate
To catch the moon
Which was never known by this loon
I went to bed way before that
But also had weird dreams at my mat
Can't remember all of it
But it was weird bit by bit
I'll blame the moon too
For it coming due
yes the moon
Deletecan make you dream like a loon!
Don't have to worry about missing a glance
because I'll show you what you missed perchance
Usually notice the moon at my shore
and make sure I share my photos and more.
You went to bed early and slept late
the way you spend a Sunday is great! ha.
haha yeah nice and relaxing Sunday it was indeed
DeleteAt my feed
Making the neck feel better through the sleep
And not taking a leap
Never have to fear missing the moon
Or some jumping of some spoon
For you catch it all
There at your hall
Great shots Betsy!
ReplyDeletethanks, Michelle!
DeleteNice photos, Betsy. We were looking forward to seeing the moon but it turned out to be too cloudy here.
ReplyDeletewe had clouds all day and then it cleared in the evening! I wasn't expecting to be able to see it!
DeleteStunning photos.
ReplyDelete:)
thank you, dear. Did you have clouds or could you see it?
DeleteI think it was cloudy here, i never saw the moon, great photos!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm glat to see YOU here! :)
DeleteWe went outside about 10 to watch the moon, but when it was at it's closest it was blocked by the neighbor's tree :-(
ReplyDeleteOh, shoot! I think it might have been seen if you went out later...as it got higher. That's how it was here. We had nothing compared to some countries where it looked orange and enormous, though!
DeleteYour shots are so amazing! I'm impressed. I missed the viewing so thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks, WG! :) It's nice to see you here..it's been a while!
DeletePERFECT! We had clouds on Saturday, but Friday night's viewing wasn't bad either!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure tonight's viewing is good, too but I haven't been outside to see it!
DeleteHi Betsy - last night's was hazy, but big as you say .. at least I could see it! Cloud cover is just brilliant at the moment - solid masses!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos .. cheers Hilary
Wow! Wow! Wow!! That is a SUPER moon!!! beautiful shots, Besty!
ReplyDeleteyes, it was SUPER for sure! :)
DeleteYou know my line of work Betsy and there is FACT in people do CRAZY things when there is a FULL moon!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
Oh, I know! I've seen it in action! lol...
DeleteI am soooo jealous!! What wonderful photos! I remembered and yet I forgot when the time came around. So glad you got a few pics. Could you see the same or similar moon tonight(Monday)?
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it will still be great tonight...it was still bright last night!
DeleteWe were at the cottage for 3 days...:o)...I left the blinds up in our bedroom, as the Full Moon was in all it's glory over Lake Erie...Love when it shines in the bedroom all night...and if you have to make a middle-of-the-night trip downstairs....it helps guide your way!!...no falling down he stairs at 4am!!! I tried to take a few pic, but to no avail :o( will try again next month...
ReplyDeleteGreat Post...
Cheers
Linda :o)
oooh...that moon on the lake must have been awesome! I noticed, too, that it served very well for a night light! haha.
DeleteReally great shots Betsy. Definitely something I would've walked outside to check out, but never heard about it. So glad you posted this. Thanks
ReplyDeletethanks, Fred...I would have told people about it before hand but didn't know myself until that day! It was cool, though!
DeleteWonderful photos - I don't know how you manage to get such amazing shots. I didn't see this big moon though.
ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job with your moon shots.
ReplyDeleteYep, I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Nice moon, doll. :)
