Blue moon over Bali


December 31, 2009 was a full moon and that is always a celebration for the Balinese. Add New Years Eve and and a rare blue moon occurrence and it was a celebration like I've never seen. The entire island was celebrating. Flowers, fireworks, noisemakers, champagne and dancing to the wee hours of 2010. I haven't stayed out that late in decades...

Selamat Tahun Baru

I heard about the blue moon too late to see it, if we could, in this part of the world--your watercolors are very expressive here-I can imagine the festive time was a great experience.....there's a place in Maine that lowered a large Sardine cutout at midnight not unlike the ball in Times Square--how great is that?! winna
