Full moon from the Rockies
Took a hike and saw the moonrise last night. Looking east from Round Mountain, in the Big Thompson Canyon overlooking Loveland, CO and US 34 *t(the bright linear lights). Hope you enjoy

You live in the same city as my younger son. He goes to Central High, freshman, and made the Varsity Track and Cross Country team just a couple of weeks ago.
I love the pics and am planning on a hiking trip next spring break with him.
Thanks for sharing.

Makes me homesick, I love the Rockies.

I saw the same lovely moon last night shining through my trees, the glow was so bright and almost ghostly. That's one of the blessings of having such clean, cool air here in the west. Love the cool sleeping nights, and great comfortable dry days of September.

Doug,
Awesome shots. I watched the moon come up the past couple of nights, and then this morning, was able to watch it set.
Moon rises are awesome, but watching a full moon set over the hills, were the air is that nice clean crisp type air, before the smog, and dust is kicked up in the day time.....VERY awesome.
Thanks for sharing.
