Tuesday Photo-The Moon

This week's Wordsmith Studio Photo Prompt is The Moon. This is a picture of the full moon a couple of nights ago.

Since I have become tuned into the moon for the purposes of poetry and photography, I have been surprised at how often it is visible. I see it on early morning walks, and I remember seeing it at noon once.

When I see it in the morning, I like to play a little and position it atop houses, trees or power lines.

Of course, I also have my classic horror movie opening shot.

Are you inspired by the moon? Thanks to Rebecca Barray for this prompt. Take your own picture of the moon and put a link to it at Wordsmith Studio.
