  1. Beautiful moon series. The city buildings look modern and well kept from this view.

  3. Do you know what is so neat?????? Even though we are many miles apart, we still see the same moon... Isn't that just incredible?

    Great pictures.
    Hugs,

  4. That moon looks lovely. Did you take the photos last week? I took some full moon photos about a week and a half ago which I posted on my blog. Maybe you've seen them :-) I also saw the full moon on a few other blogs I follow. So nice we can all share in it.

  5. Thanks Janie. I don't have my zoom lens here - was in for repairs when I left South Africa. Even so, I thought these came out quite well.

    Hi Gaelyn;) it is quite the metropolis.

    Absolutely Betsy;) when I see the moon, I think of all my beautiful blogger friends across the world, who see the SAME moon! (((Hugs))) Jo

    Yes, Joyful, I did see yours and many other full moon posts. Thanks yours was beautiful too.

  13. Thanks Sylvia, thanks Julie. These are with my normal lens so I thought they might seem mediocre on the post. I'm pleased you think differently!

    Hi Regina, we live in a flat (apartment) on the first floor of a building. These photos are taken from the second floor which is a flat roof above our apartment. There is plenty of scope. Thanks for your kind comment.

    Hi Randi;) thanks. I want to pop over and see where you're from;)

    Hi diane;) you;re always so sweet about Africa. Have you been over to any of the countries (East Africa/South Africa)?

    Yes, Gemma, the light is very soft at this time of the morning.

    Thanks Brenda!

  14. great shots of the moon over the buildings.

    How you were able to capture all of them at different times, in different colours, and with varied amounts of light.. Amazing! :D

    p.s. I agree with betsy-- haha, looking at the moon shots from last week (including mine), it's amazing we're looking at the same moon-- and if you look closely at the spots, you'd know it's the same one! ;p

    It's cool to see it in pictures in different parts of the world--all taken differently too.

  15. The moon is one of the most beautiful things in our universe. I love how it the sun and stars, are the only thing that is the same no matter where you are.

    That laundry did a great job!

  18. Yes, Grant, the moon, the sun and the stars are absolute constants. Amazing.

    Hi Lori, thanks. Grandbaby is home with proud mum and dad and thriving. I'll do a post again soon. We should be going out by end March.
