A blog about art, astronomy and a garden shed. (Sometimes including references to life, paleontology, gastronomy, tropical fish keeping and the delights of the 5-string banjo)

New Moon over the Atlantic
The new Moon over the Atlantic is a beautiful sight!
Earth-shine, that is, sunlight reflected from our planet to illuminate what would otherwise be the dark surface of the Moon, can be seen clearly in this photograph taken by Toot from our hotel balcony.
Apparently, it's snowing in England but here in Madeira it's a balmy 70 degrees Fahrenheit!
