18. You will have to get an account at "Photobucket"
Download your photo to them, and then reply in DU and link back to photobucket.
Does this make sense so far?

36. Hey wait, that looks like the normal moon
I suppose a photo just won't cut it in this situation.

Damn the rain and clouds!

9. Clear viewing in Flint, MI
It just rose above the treeline. It always amazes me how fast it moves.

I might have to break into a Moon Dance!

15. We saw it bright as a beacon here in the German Rheinland
As I posted on another thread on the subject:


The Russians have a folk song, "Светит месяц," sort of "brightly shines the moon."

It was very appropriate tonight. Nice birthday present from Mother Nature!
Since she tried to kill me off 7 years ago, I figured she owed me one.

We had a micro blizzard yesterday afternoon, and a hailstorm this afternoon. Mostly cloudy right now.

23. It's beautiful here in N. GA, and about 60 degrees. I sat on my porch
and saw it rise. It was bright orange when it came over the horizon. I don't think I've ever seen it quite that color--not even the harvest moon in the Fall.

35. Photo of Supermoon over our family farm in Pleasant Valley, near Pittsburgh PA
Edited on Sat Mar-19-11 08:53 PM by demodonkey


Temp in the low 40s, clear and crisp... Supermoon was white and bright just about as soon as it rose over the treeline.
