The Time-release Dose – The serious Moonlight.

The first few minutes of a moon rise

are the most poetic!

Under the serious Moonlight in the Ten Thousand Islands.
ART of Darkness – Camping with the Stars! Part I

.

The moon’s steady ascent above the horizon is clear evidence of an endless cosmic cycle. From day to night, month to month, epoch to epoch – as our little planet world moves through space and time.

Camping with the Stars means going outside to experience the night as all the wild creatures of the earth do, or as closely as modern western society humans can. It is to step away from, and to go outside the world of people. It means to look up at the vast infinity above full of billions and billions of stars and feel humbled. It means to connect with the power of the infinite and transcend our daily, busy modern lives. It also means to stay up close and connected to the rhythms of the heavens and of the earth!

Remote camping under the full moon is a beautiful

experience not easily forgotten!

The Daily Dose – Greeting a great full moon rising over Florida Bay!

Observing sunspots and the full moon

from a tiny island.

.

(tap or click pic to read)

Good evening universe!
The super full moon camping experience at Little Rabbit Key, now with Sunspots.

.

The particular full moon in this story was a once or twice in a lifetime experience. The supermoon appeared 14% larger and 30% brighter than usual as it was closest to the Earth since 1948. Moreover, the next really impressive supermoon like this one won’t occur until 2034!

However it doesn’t have to be a supermoon to experience

the magic of a full moon night!

To fully appreciate full moon camping it is worthwhile to paddle out to one of the more remote backcountry campsites in the Everglades. This story starts by paddling out to Little Rabbit Key which is centrally located in Florida Bay.

I find great comfort resting under the moonlight

while watching it ride across the night sky.

“A Trip to the Moon!“

.

The SMC Pentax 1000mm reflex lens really makes photographing the moon and the sun worthwhile, especially with an APS-C sensor cam. Getting focus spot on can be tricky, but the reflex design really shines in this application. Note that a special solar filter must be installed over the lens to prevent permanent damage to eyes and sensors! It’s called a Baader safety film and made of a coated mylar. When paired with the versatile Pentax Q camera, I can image at a 5600mm equivalent reach of the moon or the sun.

See the story for examples!
