After a very busy day of cleaning our house and boat, we took time out to rush up to the DNA Tower on the hill in nearby Kings Park to see if we could catch the full moon rising as the sun set in the west.

We watched and waited while others came up and went down the tower, then Rob spied it to the east, peaking over the hills (in the picture with the sun still on the buildings in the foreground) . An English lady was watching, wondering what it was, and I told her that it was indeed the full moon rising. So very soon everyone else there was sharing the magic moment.

As it rose into the mauve of the sunset, the sunset was reflected in the water of the Swan River. Later on the moon was reflected in the river – magic !!!
