Moon Flower and the Harvest Moon

Jimson weed flower AKA moon flower. It does look like the moon somehow, doesn't it?

So, did you see the full moon last night? This moon qualifies as the Harvest Moon. Remember my lava shots on the Big Island back in July where I belly ached about not having a tripod? Well, I still don't have a tripod! But, it makes for an interesting image, nonetheless.

I like how you can see all the craters in this shot. If you click on the image, you'll be able to get a larger version of the image. So, there you have it, the Harvest Moon.

Hmmmm that second image makes me smile. Because you didn't have a tripod, the moon has a wonderful glow! I love that dreamy picture.
