pie in the sky

some words roll off the tongue so sweetly…


twilight …


sunset …


moonglow …


moonbeams …


moon pie … oh wait … 🙂

here she is … the moon in the early morning …

trying to capture the moon is not easy … a tripod and a patient photographer (Mr Magpie) certainly help …

these photos were not altered or retouched in any way … you can click or double click on each for a super closeup too … our camera definitely does better with daylight photos

  2. i love the haze around the moon in some of those photos. i can see why you’d use a disclaimer about the photos not being retouched. sometimes the natural world is just so perfect, that you think it can’t be real! great photos. patience is a virtue 😉

  7. Greetings Patty,

    These are wonderful photographs, especially that of the moon. Of course I could e partial to the moon as I am born under its sign, but then they are beautiful, especially the last one.

    Wishing you a grand start to the week,
