rainbows round the moon
I’ve seen halos around the moon before, but never a rainbow-colored one. This photo doesn’t even begin to show what it really looked like, but I was glad I bundled up to go outside anyway, though I wished I’d planned ahead and thought to set up my tripod.
But we take the moment we get, and this was mine last night, a moment of extraordinary, a gift from February, or a bribe, perhaps, trying to win me over.
And my heart did melt, just a little.
Perhaps we’ll be friends after all.

We often get rainbow halos around the mon here. I remember the first time I saw it I was quite frightened because I’d just woken from dreaming about it, looked out the window, and there was the rainbow-ringed moon. But I am used to them now. So beautiful. It’s hard to get a good photo of the moon – well done 🙂
