My friend Tom was over on Tuesday night, and we were marveling at the moon. It’s started to wane, and Tom noted it’s a gibbous moon and that the light the moon casts across the earth is called the moonglade. Needless to say, that was on my mind before sunrise Wednesday when I was paddling through the light of that gibbous moon as it reflected off Lake Loudon.
I really wanted a photo of the moon. It was impressive. But I had to settle for this sunrise. Not a bad bargain, I guess. But I really wanted a shot of that gibbous moonglade.
I paddled Prater Flats again, focusing on center islands and stumbling across a few shallow coves I’d yet to explore. Probably put in about 6 miles or so.
