Sublime and Beautiful Sunday this and that

This post is for #SublimeSunday is inspired by @c0ff33a and #BeautifulSunday is initiated by @ace108.

Good Morning have a super Sunday

Now what is sublime and beautiful I guess that varies with everyone, but for this weeks post I am sharing a few recent shots that for me fit into both of these categories but i know perhaps not for everyone

Starting with a just past full moon shot I took one morning, I think strictly speaking at the time it was in the phase called Waxing gibbons but it looked close enough to a full moon for me

I will say here that I class myself as a Lunatic

The Latin word for such a person was lunaticus, which was based on the noun luna, meaning "moon." Lunaticus came into Middle English as lunatik. Then it passed into Modern English as lunatic, meaning "one driven mad by the moon."

When I was in primary school a Nun teacher I had noticed my mood swings around a full moon, I was mischievous at the best of times but over the top when it was a full moon, in fact she spoke to my parents and I was excused from having to go to school on the day before and of a full moon

Of course I didn't mind skipping the odd day of school, and was perturbed when I went to high school I couldn't take those days off LOL

and still to this day I can get a bit shall I say grumpy when the moon is full, and my wife the same, but we accept that and don't get to irritated with each other LOL

Next up I saw this dog happily swimming away one morning

one morning I was at Fort Tabor taking a stroll and it was a grey and dull morning, just a few days before Zach our grandson had wanted to clean our car for us and while he was doing it he came across the glass ball I had in the boot of the car, so it reminded me it was there so I took it out and took a few shots

I will admit there not the best, shots like these do work better on sunnier days but was fun to do something different i had not done for ages
this next one is my fav of the three
