Beautiful Moon setting


I glanced out my kitchen window and caught a glimpse of the moon setting this morning. I had to quickly grab my camera and get this shot. The moon was setting over the mountains behind our house and it was about 7:00 am this morning. How lovely does she look up there shining so brightly in the daylight?  The full moon was yesterday and this moon was a Gibbous waning moon at 98% full.  The picture is OK, but the actual view was just stunning.  I just love gazing at the sky and the moon in the daylight has always amused me.
