10 o’clock last night and as the moon rose it looked like the sun which at this time of year also rises over Conic Hill from our vantage point.
The magnification gives the photo the appearance of oil on canvas.

If you are feeling uncomfortable in the heat just imagine yourself there, a little chill in the air, surrounded by the cool water of the Loch.

Ooooh! Lovely. I love the moon 'aura'. Might try and paint that one day

I used to love travelling along the edge of the loch, winding in and out on the road. smile
To say I'm envious is an understatement.
Its lovely to see it again, thank you.

There were a lot of folk out to capture shots of the supermoon last night .If theres even a suspicion of the Aurora every parking space is packed with camera's and FB is filled with the results the next morning .
One of my friends got a shot last night with a saltire shape cloude formation under it so it was immediately renamed the Sturgeon moon....the comments under it were hilarious about Truss insisting on knowing why/how Nic got a MOON called after her....as if Vogue ..twice... wasn't bad enough .
Its a beautiful place to be on a still dark night ,I'm very happy you get to enjoy it at its best .
