~In my hour of darkness, she is standing right in front of me.~ 🌕 . Hunter's moon over Plum Point..in stages! In front of me like 327 deer were playing. I tried to get a deer antler silhouetted by the moon but alas he was not having it. Stories for the Deer Zoo under full moon. . #moon_of_the_day #fullmoon #huntersmoon #tv_landscapes #moodygrams #moody_nature #ipulledoverforthis #renegade_dark #luna #sombrexplore #moody_tones #moonlovers #rhodeisland_igers #ig_rhody #ignewengland #igworld_global #reflections #reflection_perfection #reflection_shotz #meistershots #usa_naturehippys #moodedits #everything_imaginable #kings_shots #earth_shotz #earthpix #earthpics #illgrammers #gramslayers #the_gallery_of_magic

Storm season is dead here on the west coast of Florida and it’s been awhile since I’ve shot the moon rise. So here is tonight’s full, Hunters moon from St. Petersburg.
