Wednesday evening was clear here in the Glade, and just after sundown I spotted this nearly full moon up in the sky. I couldn’t resist the temptation to get my telephoto lens and snap this picture for Skywatch Friday.

Last Sunday (April 18) evening I was outside putting things away as it was getting dark and I noticed this crescent moon up in the sky. Naturally I had to grab my camera and get a picture to share with you.

We’re being threatened with a winter storm here in the Glade. The weather service says we could get several inches of snow with an inch or so of ice thrown in for good measure. Betsy would dearly love to see the snow, but she is not at all interested in the ice. To tell the truth, I don’t look forward to ice either.
But all of this is in the future as I write this. Tonight (Thursday) the skies are clear and the moon is full. I hope the memory of this beautiful night will help me get through the next couple of days.

I’m grateful that we can look up see beauty even in a dark sky.

The picture above was taken one evening in May while we were at Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina. Not only were we blessed with good weather but the moon rose opposite our room for several nights. That helped make a wonderful vacation even better.

Last Friday (December 12) a local television station said that the full moon visible that night would be the brightest in some fifteen years. I went out on the deck to see for myself, but all I could see was some brightness behind thick clouds on the horizon.
I kept checking the sky throughout the evening and the sky started to clear as the night wore on. We finally had a clear sky, but by then the moon could only be seen through the branches of trees behind the house (of course!).
I got a couple of pictures centered on the moon itself, but I found that I like this picture of the moon seen through the branches much better. So this is what I’m sharing as my watch on the sky this day.
