Midnight Sun

“The moon is friend for the lonesome to talk to.” 
Carl Sandburg 
​

On this eve, the Moon, in a Waxing Gibbous phase was definitely very present for any lonesome person to talk to.  In this part of it's phase, it's approximately 92% illuminated, but not yet a Full Moon according to Moon Giant.  For a moon that is not considered fully illuminated, it sure was bright.  In most of the photos that we took, it looked almost looked like photos of the sun and makes the term "midnight sun" very understandable.  The clouds also gave it a sundog look. Surreal is how it was.
