MOON SHADOWS – Art of the Night

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 (Though tonight's moon is in its waning crescent phase, the inspiration for this
post was illuminated when it was full.)

Sun shadows fall heavy on the earth—stark, stretched, hard-edged forms, so common we barely notice their attachment any more.

Moon, though, lays down her strokes gently, subtle shades of black 

on lesser black. Now we feel the attachment more than know it.

IN A NEW LIGHT – Attached to the Moon

(With the moon coming full tonight (1 Aug.), may this reflection move you 
to get outdoors and experience the wonder in a new light. By the way, this early August full moon means the next one will be a blue moon!)

Sun shadows fall heavy on the earth—stark, stretched, hard-edged forms, so common we barely notice their attachment any more.
