    I meant to add something and forgot. A Gibbous Moon is a moon that is greater than half and less than full. A waxing Gibbous moon is between a quarter and full.And a waning Gibbous moon is greater than half but hasn't yet reached the last quarter.Makes sense doesn't it? Gary & Boom.

    Incredible cold, I know, Gary. Things have warmed up to 0 (Celsius) here, but can plunge to -30 before spring is here. You're right, though, it's nice to see the days getting longer.
    Lovely photos. Thanks!

    Beautilful blue skies and a great moon shot, Gary. I watched that big moon setting this morning, no good vantage for a shot, though.

    Hi LadyFi. It is all of that, but that's what winter is and you just dress for it.

    When the weather is clear and sunny, temperature drops during winter... I understand that but -33 C with wind chill is too low to me...
    Moon photo is gorgeous and I love it.
    Please take care and have a wonderful weekend.

    Excellent shots but still BRRRRR!!!!
    Isn't it nice to see a blue sky occasionally. We had a nice day Wednesday and I got some good bird shots.

    Love the frosty pics in the previous post.

    Rain and more rain today. MB

    Thanks SCS. The supersaturated air makes it even colder in a damp way.
