Flower, Eclipse and Silver Lining

07 Sep

I went to weed the leeks at the allotment this afternoon and found this pretty self-sown flower growing on our patch.

I hope some of you have managed to see the eclipse/ Blood Moon this evening. Today’s clouds disappeared so I spent half an hour looking East but we are too low down here,. However, the clouds turned pink for the duration so it was just out of sight below the horizon. I shall hope to get a photo of the full moon, the Corn Moon, later this evening.

Looking West a few moments later, the sunset was quite subdued  but I do love the silver lining and the tree silhouette. .

    Your pictures are still absolutely beautiful. We didn’t get to see anything…it was cloudy.

      Shame for the clouds. There are some wonderful photos online, especially one taken with St Michael’s Mount. 🙂

      I’ll look forward to seeing your photos. Did the moon turn red and become the promised Blood Moon? 🙂
