Sun and moon and smoke
Monday, September 9, 2024

| Good Night, Sun Photo by Barbara Twaddell |
After a day without sun, the sun made a brief appearance before it was buried in smoke.

The crescent moon was able to slice through to make an appearance - or perhaps the smoke is finally starting to dissipate.
Super Blue Moon in first light
Thursday, August 22, 2024
| Photo by Bruce Hill |
Photographer's notes:
So odd to have a full moon AND first light in the sky.
Actually looked behind me to see exactly where the sun is.
Facing South, guessing it is behind to the left, and the full moon is from "over the top" of Earth.
Perfect angles to do both at the same time.

Strawberry Moon amid the clouds
Monday, June 24, 2024
| Photos by Bruce Hill between 1:23 and 2:03am |
The Strawberry Moon during the early morning hours of June 22, 2024 at Bitter Lake in north Seattle.
The Strawberry Moon played hide and seek behind a thinly remarkable layer of clouds, and then appeared between them for a full face view.
Just wonderful, were one to be up at these hours of the night.

Crescent moon

Earthshine reveals the part of the moon not normally visible during phases.
I remember a fragment of a poem -
"the new moon with the old moon in its arms."

Half-moon sky

| Photo copyright Gloria Z. Nagler |
Gloria says that she got out her bird lens for her moon shot. Clearly a bird's eye view of the moon.
The moon was visible tonight and it looked to be at 3/4, so I do need to publish moon photos as soon as I get them.
However, if we wait a few weeks, we'll be back to half-moon again.
Thanks, Gloria for this beautiful photo.

Thursday night's Harvest Moon.
We certainly have had interesting weather lately. It seems to change every ten minutes.

Worm moon and the end of winter

| Worm moon photo by Lee Wolfe |
This was the Worm Moon on Tuesday morning, March 7, 2023.
“The Worm Moon is the moon for March, and for some, it takes its name from the fact that earthworms begin to reappear around this time of year, bringing birds back out to feed. It signals the end of winter and the start of regrowth in nature.”
Photographer Lee Wolfe says "I’m all for the end of winter!" So say we all.

Ghost Moon

I love seeing the ghostly moon on a treetop during the day. This view is looking West around 12:15 on Monday afternoon

The moon watched over a lovely sunrise Wednesday morning with pink tints in the clouds and on the fresh mountain snow.

Hunter Moon
Monday, October 10, 2022
Mike Remarcke says "The Hunter Moon is the first moon after the more festive Harvest Moon. The Hunter Moon suggests that after the harvest and the storing of food grown, it is time to start hunting for meat to last throughout the winter."

Taco Moon

Barbara Twaddell thinks this pink shadowed moon looks like a taco.
No more unreasonable than green cheese.
Where did the green cheese thing start anyway?
I've never been the same since I found out that most nursery rhymes were political slurs.

Photo: The moon and Venus
Monday, October 3, 2022
Mike managed to get this photo on an early morning on August 25, 2022. It was a brief respite between bouts of wildfire smoke. In the photo the smoke is thick over the Cascades, but the upper sky is clear.
I'm a little appalled that we have been dealing with wildfire smoke since August. It isn't as bad as previous years when we couldn't even see Lake Washington or Puget Sound, but it would be nice to be able to open windows again.
The photo is lovely, though.

No need for a night light - "Buck" Super moon lights the skies
Friday, July 15, 2022
Photographer Bruce Hill said "I honestly thought I had left a light on when I woke up at 4am."
An article in CNN says there's a reason for that.
While there isn't a single definition of "supermoon," the term typically refers to a full moon that can stand out more than others because it is within 90% of its closest orbit to Earth. The buck moon is the supermoon that will come closest to Earth this year, according to The Old Farmer's Almanac.
