Can you hear the song? "HE has the whole Moon in His hands...." :smile:
I had forgotten, that I had taken this photo...until I started sifting through my files. Hope you like it.

It does appear as if the clouds are cradling the moon.

Your view here Lucy, with those two clouds surrounding the moon does creates a fine sense of support. You've also got lots of great texture in the various clouds. Nicely seen.

Lucy, I had fun with this one. For some reason, even though you spelled it out (quite clearly), it took me forever to find the moon... and then, when I did, I totally got it! :toast:

Thank you. I got a lot of great photos of the moon and clouds that day. The clouds were crazy and so wispy. I was excited to see this scene unfold as the clouds moved. It really was as if the clouds were actually cradling the moon! :jump:

I could see it right away, Lucy! I like the larger version of this. It really shows the textures and details in the clouds and even in the little moon. The exposure was perfect so the definition of the clouds was excellent.
