Full moon hunting

I spoke about it before, that I was truly sad about not seeing the full moon clearly from the beach until recently when we could move around per car instead of having the dreaded walk down and uphill. Last month we spotted the full moon after a nice road trip to the other town and I even managed to capture it from the beach. Too bad the lanterns make it hard to capture it as I want to because of the light pollution on the beach like every 10 meters. My phone won't allow me to zoom in that much.

Yesterday I knew the full moon was near

We saw the moon in the sky, very clear even during daylight so I was hoping to catch it around sunset as well this time. Unfortunately, we saw it on the wrong side when driving back home from the big city. I wish I could have been able to capture it right there and then though because it was breathtaking to see the full moon that big and close popping up from above the hills. With the sea as the background. Truly breathtaking, therefore I requested my personal driver (lol) to take an extra round on the roundabout when taking the exit to our town. He took two extra, in real life it looked breathtaking, and on camera, it looked horrible and even further than it was in real life, annoying!

My request to drive uphill was denied

He was super tired from the audit at work, which was understandable, so he didn't feel like driving any further. We drove home instead and then I walked a little further uphill in our street to try and capture it there because I remembered it was clearly visible there before, but the wind made it impossible to capture (trees in front of the view). I was lucky this time to at least get one clear shot and two not so but the idea was nice lol.

Moonlight

The moonlight was very powerful this month because it literally kept me up two and a half hours longer than I wanted. I could not fall asleep at all. The hours before I went to bed, I noticed my mood was all over the place as well so an early night would have done good on my mood. This morning I feel back to normal, although I slept in until almost 10 AM because I was so tired, which is not that weird considering how long I was awake before I felt tired.

I'm trying to use the energy of the full moon today to be productive. So far so good!
