Night and Thereabouts

[yourlibrarian]

Liked the mix of moon sliver with dark clouds and orange sunset





A night with a really clear full moon. Distant shot above, close-up below. What I particularly liked was seeing the red edges to the bottom half of the moon.





There seemed to be more stripes in person but you can still see the layering of what looks like candy striped clouds.



What struck me about this view was (just right of center) a cloud opening that looked like an overhead light fixture switched on.

The second photo, by the dock, portrays the sort of full moonlit night that would have me longing for someone to duel. Or to romance. Ideally both.

The red edge around the full moon in the third photo is something I’ve noticed, too—and thank you for confirming that it’s not just me; kudos for capturing it! (If you look closely, the red area is an arc rather than a halo—it’s complemented by a cyan arc opposite, implying the most visible parts of a rainbow sequence.)

Above and to the right of the “overhead light fixture” in photo #5, at about 2 o’clock, is a dark cloud shape that looks for all the world like the Starfleet logo.

Haha, I agree, why not both?

I hadn't noticed the Starfleet emblem before but you're right! Creative clouds that night.

Yes, I'd noticed the contrasting color opposite, it was neat to see.
