Was driving home from a trip up north to Bemidji, I turn off of Military Road and on to Jamaica Avenue which cuts across a corn field and into Cottage Grove when we see the moon on the horizon. The photo doesn't do it justice as the size of the moon was larger than normal in appearance. The entire sky was clear, the sun was setting on the opposite side of this photo, the entire sky had a natural rainbow effect to it. You can see the sky colors in this photo, but imagine the entire sky filled with the colors in the photo as far the left and right as possible and you'll get a better picture of what I was seeing.

I See The Bad Moon Arising

This is a very interesting photo because of the large expanse of sky, the moon, and then the buildings!! PS Thanks for stopping by!
