Blue Moon

Many miles away, a glowing moon gets our attention.

I remember seeing memorable full moon risings in my life...

Many over my dad's rice fields, no moon rising has ever looked that spectacular.

Also, many times over Saint Baume as we were driving back home and rising over the chateau in Cassis.

When I saw this photo that I took of the Blue Moon, I laughed so hard -

I couldn't stop. It struck me funny.

That’s it, the truel little peephole.

The Pearl.

 

Then, with focused effort, the moon came out behind the silhouette of the landscape.

It could be a more spectacular photo. But the memory of taking these two on a back road will make me smile.

Did you look up at the full moon?

I did indeed. It was spectacular! I tried to paste my
Photo here but was unable. I’m so not techie.
So I’ll wait to see Sacha’s professional shot.

And we can't forget 'Blue Moon of Kentucky" by Bill Monroe

Soaked it up. Love the moon and all it shines on us.

Thank you for these "pearls", Corey. Each song was amazing, but Ooooh, Elvis! Now that was a song.

The moon was glorious. I took a picture from my deck, beautiful but not of Sacha's quality. Bud and I were married under a blue moon on December 31, 2009. It was glorious then.

Yes, I went in search of the Blue Moon and almost gave up because there were clouds.
On the way home I had to get my husband to stop quickly and turn around because suddenly it appeared.
