Full Moon

I went down to the beach this evening to watch the moon rise over the ocean. Its not actually full but very nearly.
The sea is very silvery at this time of day. The sun is setting behind the ocean in the West but the Eastern skies are pink as well.
At first the moon appears white in the sky. I suppose it has been there all along but is not apparent until the sun begins to set.
As the sky darkens the moon gets brighter and begins to cast a golden light across the ocean.
It get brighter as the evening goes along.
The golden light seems to spread across the water.
It runs all the way up to the shore and dissipates into the sand.
It's magical - I never see this at home.
