"That orbed maiden
With white fire laden
Whom mortals call the moon"
~ Percy Bythe Shelley
Tonight's Full Moon was shining brightly in the sky. No clouds to cast a veil, or to shroud it. Just the Moon. White and round, hanging in the night. It was quite beautiful.

I was having techincal difficulties as I took these shots. Both with the camera and with myself. High above, the Moon shone from an impossible angle, from overhead. Not agreeable to a tripod's use. That coupled with my dull aches and pains...well, it just wasn't a scenario conducive to clear and steady photographs.

However, I do like the tunnel effect the leaves on the tree just outside my front door created, so all is not lost. As has become my custom, I took pictures of the Full Moon. That's good enough for me.

Next go round I'll be sure to view it during it's rise...
"If I was the Moon, I'd feel bad.
We never write.
We never call.
And we certainly don't come for a visit anymore."
