That's amazing. My dad named me. Supposedly inspired by a love that was not my mom. It's funny because we're not French at all. But I did move to France at some point. It was like a self-fulfilling prophecy.๐
Wow, a lot of similarities between the origins of your 1st name and mine!
My mom was from Nancy, a major city in the Lorraine region. I was born in the states & she thought that Nancy was too common a 1st name, so she chose Lorraine...
Oh I love that! I never thought of Nancy France as the same Nancy here. My bff is named Nancy, we're the same age. But yes Lorraine is a little more rare. Good job, mom!
And I like that my mom always pronounced my name the French way, as in "Lorรฉn" and not "LorRAIN" the way Americans do. It sounds much more glamorous that way! ๐ ๐
No. Kind of gold when low then really bright. I guess Blue Moon just refers to when a full moon happens twice in one month or the third full moon in a four full moon season. Weird!
Thank you for the beautiful pictures, Lorraine! Up here in Sonoma County, weโre up to our red-streaming eyeballs in smoke!
Iโm glad you finally have some clear weather, because youโre an awesome photographer and these are great!
Thanks for the compliment, I always try!
I'm so worried about you guys. Praying for rain. Hoping the wildfire season is mild due to all the rain this year. ๐๐ป๐
A nice sprinkling shower or two would be much appreciated. Thanks for the good thoughts.๐๐ค

Beautiful!
Thanks dear Lorraine, my namesake!๐
๐โค๏ธ my mom was from Lorraine in France, that's why she called me that.

Beautiful photos! ๐
Thank you Lisa!๐
Oh my! Lorraine, your piece of the planet is absolutely stunning.
And your photos are more than the beauty of the images; they so effortlessly drew me in, for a few moments I felt very much *there*.
*mwah* and thank you! ๐
Mwah Kim!!๐
WOW
Thanks JP!๐
Fantastic photos! I only viewed it, like the other full moon this month, through my bathroom skylight ๐
Oh that sounds cool Jonji!
oh, those are stunning photos, Lorraine! Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience
with me (in NY).
Thank E.S. in NY!๐
Those pics are awesome--I can't see it--probably all the storm clouds--and that sux!
Oh bummer. It's unusually clear here this time. Lucky.
Does it look kinda blue-ish in person?

Ahhh
