MOON!!!


http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7779294.stm

My friend sent me the news.
I am not sure if anyone has already posted this but I am really excited.
Unfortunately it is overcast here and snowing but still is is such light!  Silvery twilight, youo can see everyting but dimly, and all is silvery white. I have been outside several times. I can see the Moon slightly behind a curtain of clouds. Pity I can´t make a picture of my garden now - it is like another planet, or a mysterious place, like LOTR Lórien in winter.  Lovely...

Not amused here ... its grey and nasty outside! I so wanted to see the big moon!

The clouds broke up here and I got a couple of snaps! Have no time to do anything with them at the moment, though. I have Christmas cards scattered all around me I need to finish addressing.

The moon looked HUGE at first, but then clouds covered it & it looked rather smaller later when it rose high enough to get over the clouds.

I did see a bright moon shining through the clouds last night... but it's drizzly tonight.

Missed it (and anyone it was raining) but I guess that's fair, we got the smiley face :)
