The following photos were taken walking west into the foothills of Boulder. I was attempting to bring my friend Carolyn along on my walk through texts. We got to see the moon disappear from sight three different times! (Photos taken 8/30/18 with an iPhone – presented in chronological order)

Big blue sky.

The moon is always whole though what we see waxes and wanes.


We too are always whole despite changing perceptions.




Moon-set #1

The moon becomes visible again…

…and slips from view a second time.





Wait, how could the moon appear again so high in the sky…

…and disappear behind the hills for a third time?
