Harvest Moon and the Sunrise

 

moonshine at 2:30 am back yard 

Tuesday, Sept 18, Beau came to the side of the bed at 2:50 am and said Breakfast Time.
We walked down the hall in the dark and low and behold I thought I had left the flood light on in the back yard, the blinds were closed but lit up and it was bright out there.
I opened the blinds and low and behold there was a ginormous HARVEST MOON.

I took the photo of the blinds in the dark, and later grabbed the above Shutterstock free moon photo and took it to Lunapic just to show you how it looked reflecting on our pool
When I stepped outside I could count the grains of sand at the bottom of the pool

created in Lunapic not my photo


Three nights in a row of MOON SHINE on the pool and the morning of Sept 19th OH WOW
It rained cats and dogs from 2;30 to 3:30 AM, and we had to wait until after 7 to walk with Beau.
by noon on Wed the blinds were closed to keep out the Florida Branding Iron Sun.


Fast Forward to the next morning, Sept 19th.

looking west

Beau and I were walking West towards the beaches, and it was strange because it was a stunning view and it never has color in the sky. pretty clouds over the beaches but their color is in the evening..
I took a couple of photos and turned around to head EAST into the sunrise.

looking east


I actually gasped out loud when we turned, our house is to the left around the corner. I asked Beau to stay, and I wished for someone nearby to gasp with me. Beau did a pretty good gasp, because we stood at these 4 way stop signs and waited on 6 cars to pass in front of us.
Not one of them looked to see what I was taking photos of. 
Their loss.

Another Sunrise


Saturday Sunrise through our curtain of trees and vines....we are surround by trees but the sunrise always makes it through.

No matter how dark the night, somehow the sun rises again and all shadows are chased away.

I am taking the next few days off... see you all later...

Autumn Colors - Backyard View




Sunday September 27, 2015, Jake was begging for his first ball game of the day. I explained it was 6:45 and that we had a half hour before it would be light enough to see the ball. He insisted and I listened. I said "come on, mommy will show you it is to dark?  

OH WOW! Mommy screamed while dashing for the camera.....Our Sunrise from our backyard viewed through the neighbors palm tree.





In the bottom right of above photo, is the roof line of our neighbors house. Once again I had to shoot UP and over to get these photos. We have no autumn leaves, but from now through December we have glorious sunrise/sunsets.
