My idea was to climb on the roof to get the full moon on the mountains.
The moon was low on the horizon and I only saw a black spot, thinking that it was a big bird. But as you can see, it was in fact a plane.
It was a full moon on the 25th here in the Western Cape Province of South Africa, and I don't know what the date or the time was for the full moon to be seen in Europe and the other countries. Our day was bedeviled by strange cloud patterns, but thankfully later at nightfall, there was an open space between the clouds that gave me a chance to get the moon.
I will show you a strange cloud formation below the 2 shots of the plane on the moon.
It looked like a raven that came over earlier.
Now have a look at this cloud formation below.
And then the sunset started to color the cloud.
And finally, a "V" formation of birds heading for home.
I don't climb on the roof very often anymore these days, as the high stepladder leaves me with leg cramps at night in bed. But the full moon is irresistible, and I was up to the challenge. So, cramps, or no cramps, I made it and for a change I didn't have any cramps in my bad leg later in bed. We usually drive out into the countryside to get the moon, but when it's late at night, then it is not safe out there anymore.
Now I am happy that I decided to climb on the roof of our house, a bit too late, as I wanted to get the moon on the mountain peaks, and it had already cleared the mountains. But the plane made up for it, as if I was a minute later, there would have been no plane.
Life works like this.
I hope you have enjoyed the pictures and the story.

Great photo series! The plane on the background of the moon is cool!
Thank you and glad that you liked the plane shot.
These are some really great photos. The high definition thing makes them more pleasing. I have always loved sky and moon photography and you have brought just the right pictures.
Have a great day ahead and keep posting these brilliant photos.
Thank you, and happily I have a good camera. My eyes are forever fixed upon the sky, and perseverance has shown me many rare things.
May you also have a great day!

Wow, what a surprise!, going up to the roof was worth it. If you get cramps again, try putting your bare foot on the floor, it worked for me. Thanks for those beautiful photos.
Thank you Lady Elena, and yes, to lessen the cramp in my calf, I have to get out of the bed, and take a short walk in the house. Not very nice to be awakened by a cramp at 2am in the morning !LOLZ
Glad that you liked the photos.

You are welcome 🙂. I understand you, recently a cramp made me cry in the middle of the night.
Wow, I am sorry to hear that, and I hope that you will find something that can prevent the cramps.

Thank you friend 🙂
Charming! surely it is a plane? on my 1st sight I considered its a mosquito, !LOLZ. Let me treat you with a Hive !PIZZA, huh? 😜
Hahaha, maybe you need to get some new spectacles my friend, as over that distance, it would have been a giant mozzie, if it was closer !LOLZ
Thank you kindly for the !PIZZZA 🤪
Maybe it's Santa Claus!
Hahaha, I wish !LOL
Such views are mostly seen in the sky in the evening. I am also trying to do the same now. Whenever I see a special view like this, I will definitely take pictures of it and share it here because natural sights are what we all love and we love to see them.
Oh yes, such views only occur at night. A great idea that you will also try to get a plane on the moon.
