Sunday Sunlight

Supermoon

August 10 brought us this year's perigee of the moon, the moon's closest point to us in its orbit around our planet.  This "largest" full moon of the year fortuitously arrived while we were visiting/working at our Amen Mountain Deck Home, which is located at an elevation of 9,600 feet in Garfield, Colorado.  So I guess we were even closer to the moon than most earthlings.


The rising "supermoon" illuminates the mist rising up our valley in this handheld shot taken from the deck of the cabin.  I'm almost glad that I didn't have my tripod with me.


A couple of days later, the morning sun lights up the same mountain ridge.
