Here is a look at a number of
photos taken of the moon as it appears over the Gardens at Waters East.
It is getting dark, the pictures are not the best, but the mood of the
rising moon over Lake Michigan and the “feel” in the gardens is great.
All photos were taken in the
gardens over a period of different days except for the last one. It was taken by a friend standing just
north of the gardens with a much better camera – nice.

ReplyDeleteI am delighted with them.

Your colorful garden with the lake in the background is breathtaking! The moonshots are lovely! I have not learned how to do that yet with my camera, but so often I kick myself for my laziness.
ReplyDeleteAlso, thanks for stopping by my blog and taking time to comment!
Absolutely beautiful!! Breathtaking with the lake behind the settings. That moon shot sure did come out nicely. I also adore all those alliums or chives in the formal garden. Wow!
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks for visiting and commenting on my blog, nice to see your garden, and nice to see it at night! I do like your friends’ photo of the moon though, I bet he has an enviable camera! Do you know what camera/lens the photo is taken with – just so I can drool over what I probably never will be able to afford? :-)
ReplyDeletevery romantic shots of the garden by moonlight.
ReplyDeleteIs your formal garden filled with armeria? It looks like Armeria maritima, what a great dispaly!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful moonshots! Even at night your garden is beautiful! When my kids were younger, we often vacationed in Michigan and Wisconsin, and my favorite part was time we spent along the lake. What a beautiful place to live!
ReplyDeleteYour Waterfront gardens are just beautiful. I love taking pictures in the evening also and do it often. Gives the flowers a pretty glow in the moon light. I love all the elements you have added in the gardens and that ship ribs is such a great find to add to it.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots, I've never considered photographing the garden at night. Wonderful idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous views! I love how the moon reflects off the water!
