There it is - just peeking over the Cascade Mountains in the distance behind downtown Seattle! The Harvest Moon tonight (the full moon closest to autumn equinox), viewed from here on Bainbridge Island.
Halfway to the Moon
"Halfway to the Moon". Riders on the Seattle Great Wheel pass nearby the moon - which is exactly halfway between the New Moon and Full Moon.
Just now from down on the beach. Both the BIG mountain and the BIG ship were out today! USS Theodore Roosevelt sailing towards its new home port here in Bremerton, Washington. Look closely & you'll see the aircraft carrier deck is full of cars & pickup trucks - not fighter jets. About 3000 sailors & their families are moving from San Diego to Bremerton with this vessel - and the Navy is giving them some free car-moving service!
First time going over to Seattle for dinner in over a year! Rewarded with beautiful sunset colors along the waterfront on the way home.
Peak autumn colors this morning at the Seattle Japanese Garden - perfect time for a visit.
Moonlight Serenade
"Moonlight Serenade" - the nearly-full Harvest Moon rises over downtown Seattle, - as viewed from nearby Bainbridge Island, about 7 miles across Puget Sound.
It's that time of the month again.... Nearly-full moon rising over Seattle and the Cascade Mountains tonight. Distances? Dock pilings: 150 yards, downtown Seattle: 7 miles, mountains: 30 miles, moon: 238,000 miles. Now you know!
Reflection Framed
"Reflection Framed" - at the Seattle Japanese Garden.
Morning Reflection
Morning at the Seattle Japanese Garden yesterday. A stone lantern remains in the shade, as the sun starts to hit the distant garden plants reflecting in the pond.
Hidden Pagoda
Hidden in the trees at the Seattle Japanese Garden, this stone pagoda is often overlooked by visitors.
A calm reflection this morning at the Seattle Japanese Garden
Another shot from Tuesday's full moon. From a bit later, after the moon rose up above the haze/moisture layer - where it was much clearer. Taken from Eagle Harbor on Bainbridge Island, a short walk from my house.
Super Moon tonight! No more driving anywhere for non-essential activities (like photography). My wife & I were very fortunate to be able to see this moonrise just a short walk down the beach from our house. No one else around. Not the sharpest picture due to hazy conditions - but I was grateful just to to be out photographing!
