Wolf full Moon

In the morning... At 6.40

Then just after 8, moon set and sunrise

A cold but dry and sunny day...and at 16.40...

Moonrise and sunset

I soon realized it was moonlight, very bright, but I couldn't see the moon from that vantage point and I was damned if I was going outside to howl at it!; 3 January 2026 at 23:50

Elderberry-Rob said...: Yes! we have had fabulous moonlit skies two mornings running, yesterdays so bright I thought it was daylight - there's something very magical for me about these cold frosty mornings with a full moon. I put my coat and wellies on and take my tea in the garden with Mollie cat. everything is still and calm- and then we get the noise from Gatwick airport of engines and planes and stuff (2 miles away) but even that is nice as it means Im up early looking at the same moon with my youngest son who is a groundworker at the airport and startsk work 5am when Im drinking my tea!!! Wishing you a happy New Year with good health, great blogging and ... more pottery! please show more of your work, it is interesting. Betty; 4 January 2026 at 07:30

Debby said...: I was surprised to find that the world called the moon the wolf moon. I thought it was a native American thing. It was gorgeous and so bright. 'The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow gave the luster of midday to objects below.'; 4 January 2026 at 17:42
