Waterfall in the Moonlight

Uploaded: April 11, 2012

Description


I was standing on the beach when I took this photo. And having a sunset over the sea on one side and a moon rising above the waterfall on the other, made this a particularly special place and time. There was a distinct feeling of “magic” to it all that somehow demanded a certain reverence.

Quote of the Day: For most people, we often marvel at the beauty of a sunrise or the magnificence of a full moon, but it is impossible to fathom the magnitude of the universe that surrounds us. ~Richard H. Baker
