Skywatch Friday: Moondance



This very grainy picture captures my daughter and her friend dancing in the moonlight on the beach.  I took it last month when were on vacation in heaven.  Our walk on the beach was full of magic:  so many people were enjoying the extra light that made enjoying the beach at a late hour possible.  This particular beach is pretty special because the people who are out there at night are there for exactly the same reason:  because it's there.  There is nothing else to do but be there under the moon contemplating that big mystery at your feet and taking in the cool damp of the sand and the silence created by the incoming waves.  To want that is to want that.  That's all.

  10. The "grainy" look actually enhances the photo and makes it look rather mystical. Beautiful capture of joy and happiness "breaking loose". Nice capture, Sandy. Mickie ;)
