Moonrise

22nd Aprill 2011. 16:00 UTC.
It is midnight at approximate position: Lat 06 degrees North; Lat 090 degrees East.
It is dark and quiet. Absolutely calm sea. Surface of the ocean can be used for looking at bright sprakling weirdly named constelations formed by stars.
Vessel's  is on Easterly course.
Then on my starboard bow I can see red glowing object. It is erecting from liquid and is visible just above the horizon. It is like seeing sunset or sunrise wearing very dark eye protection. But this You can watch everyday.
Then selestial body and our planet's natural satelite slowly rises high in to the sky, bypassing the surface air which blocks intensity of the Sun reflected by Moon.

Luna becomes brighter forming moon walk.

She is not full and almost half of upper part is missing. She looks like the dimmed oversized bulb which round-shaped end is sticking out of the table lamp.
Night becomes brighter and details of the environment become vivid as they are being enlightened.
As the Moon going higher, the containers are unveiled. My mind is crossed with the thought that at this very moment I wish I were on a small yacht with people who are close to me and whom I love and care about. So they could see this rare astronomical event too.
It is cloudless sky above me. The weather is amazing here and at this exact moment. But further, just below Altair the distant flashes from lightnings can be observed. I know those areas of showers, explosion like thunders and blinding electrical releases. 
Phone camera could not capture slight emission on horizon. But Even if I had the latest camera I woldn't be able to explain this magic with pictures. 
What a Night.
