I took this last night, in my backyard, during the total lunar eclipse. New phone, so very mediocre photo, but still. #SundayPixNight

A moon rising over a lake. A large weeping willow is silhouetted against a very dark blue sky on the left. On the right are silhouetted reads, between the moonlight reflects a line of light on the water.

Quote: Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light; I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night. By Sarah Williams,  Twilight Hours: A Legacy of Verse. 
This quote is written in white text against a watercolour night sky with white stars painted by me.

"T'was a nice October morning
In September last July.
The moon lay thick upon the ground, 
The snow shone in the sky The flowers were singing sweetly.
The birds were in full bloom, as I went down the cellar.
To sweep the upstairs room
The time was Tuesday morning 
On Wednesday just at night
I saw ten thousand miles away
A house just out of sight;
The doors projected backwards
The front was at the back,
Alone, it stood between two more, 
And it was whitewashed black.

With love from
Elsie Burgess

A colorful and brightly lit tilt-a-whirl spins late at night. Its canopy is tilted, allowing the empty seats to fly skywards.
The Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. sign is lit in white, but it too is empty.

There are no people in sight, just the hauntingly cheery music and the sound of crashing waves as the tide rolls in, unseen below the pier.

An early evening sky and dark hills reflecting off a still lake. Some stars are showing in the sky above the lingering traces of sunset, and lights from cottages across the way glow against the trees.

A large screened-in porch of a cottage glows with light against a dark forested background. One large tree trunk is in front of the porch. Inside the porch stands a person, and the porch is filled with chairs and a table and various cottage paraphernalia.

Looking upwards from inside at a rotunda style window at night. There's a barely seen wire frame Pegasus leaping through the air below the night-dark windows. Below is a dark, shuttered store named Louisville Slugger.

Flying in to the Louisville airport at night; my flight was one of the last & landed at midnight. It is so odd to walk through a closed airport; it's eerily quiet, the only footsteps heard were mine & the person behind me. Tap to open the image.

A small child (6?) leaps upwards with arms outstretched as though trying to fly. They wear a bright yellow sleeveless top & nondescript shorts. It's the gloaming time and the sky is a mid-dark blue, with clouds smeared across it. The Pleasure Pier is in the background, with only a few of the rides lit up, and the Gulf of Mexico is quiet.

More like the gloaming than night, but night does approach so I'm including this image.
I always loved the sheer joy in the child's leap and outstretched arms.

The face of a completely black cat looms out of the darkness, visible only from the coppery gleam of his eye, nose and whiskers and the way what little light there is silvers the line of his jaw and cheek

Swatch shows the time 00:54. The wearer’s hand is held up against a glowing golden blue sky where the sun hovers above the horizon. There’s a flag pole behind it lit up in warm afternoon colours and you can just make out snow on the ground.
