Elusive, ephemeral..
The tease
oh please!
By heaven’s grace
let me see your face!
My soul and yours…
We glow in night’s embrace,
but disappear without a trace
when the sun shows Its face-
too soon forgotten.
Life’s moments,
like dewdrops
cling
to silken webs-
iridescent pearls,
the Spinner’s homage to
Mother Nature-
breathtaking,
heartbreaking,
fragile.

The Super Moon was gorgeous but with the rain clouds, the light kept shifting, making it nearly impossible to get the shot I wanted. These were the best she would allow.
Love the words. That middle shot is a wower. You really captured the depth of the clouds.

Thanks Shelley. Even my ‘good’ camera never captures it like my old Sony used to. It was a perfect little camera but just didn’t have a proper zoom and I take so many long distance nature and macro shots.i still have not mastered the manual settings on this one for night photography. Perhaps someday…

It’s great to have a camera that we love that keeps encouraging us to keep trying to get that awesome shot. You’re well on your way to that someday shot! But, as every photographer says, there’s always another shot to take! xx

Thank you Peter. It has been difficult to write these last days. The fog in the air seems indicative of the haze creeping into the collective world brain. People are going mad…

These are lovely – I like the ones with the clouds. I like it when the moon lights up the clouds.

I was so disappointed I couldn’t get what I was actually seeing. The dark and light shadows kept fooling the aperture and I was manually adjusting as fast as I could. She all but disappeared for the next two nights. We have had nothing but rain and fog.
