The astonishing beauty of common things

I have noticed a few times that when I am driving home from the grocery store in the evening and stopped at a light, and I look toward the hills and see the clouds, and the moon rising over our city with all the traffic and the lights, the scene is as you say, astonishingly beautiful. It's as though the relationship between the moon and our affairs below, its shining on us, makes it even more startling.

Yes, yes! Thank you for showing some of it. That top photo grabs my heart, I think because it resembles some scenes that in my own life have suddenly dumped joy on me.
