    it looks as though the cooling tower is expelling the moon!

    Yes, it does. We joked about it popping out like a ping pong ball. Another interpretation was that the clouds were vapor from the cooling tower and the moon was condensing from it.

    I always like moon shots and I had to laugh...I also thought it resembled a ping pong ball shooting out of the top! Great photo! Smile today. :)

    Thanks, Gloria. We had fun makings those photos. We had headed off to Stevenson and saw the moon rising, but didn't get back to the nuclear plant until the moon was a little higher in the sky than we'd hoped. I guess it didn't really matter because we'd have had some trouble getting it aligned from our location had it been lower in the sky.

    I didn't know there was a nuke plant in northern Alabama, but then it has been 24 years since I left the South. At that time, there was one near my home in southern Mississippi.
