The city and everyone in it is becoming foggy.

Madison Bumgarner of the Arizona Diamondbacks greets old friend Buster Posey of the San Francisco Giants before batting in the first inning. Bumgarner will strike out in his at bat, leaving the bases loaded and Arizona up 3-0. The Giants would go on to win the game 5-4 on a walk-off single from "Late-Night" LaMonte Wade Jr. in the bottom of the Ninth Inning.
The Moon revolves around Earth in an elliptical orbit, and in most years there are 12 full Moons. About 3 times a year a full Moon occurs at its closest point to Earth during its orbit, its perigee, and the Moon appears larger and brighter becoming what is commonly known as a 'supermoon'. At its perigee, the distance between the Earth and the Moon is 225,623 miles / 363,104 km.
At its apogee, the farthest point from Earth in the moon's orbit, the Moon is 252,088 miles / 405,696 km away from Earth. When compared with full Moons which occur at its apogee, perigee supermoons appear 14% larger and 30% brighter.
The difference between these two distances is 26,465 miles / 42,592 km, which is more than three times larger than the Earth's 7,917 miles / 12,742 km diameter.
This is number 1 in a new series of photographs capturing a SOMA sunrise. This image inspired me to look at sunrises at this location in a new "light", pun intended. The shaft of light from the sun adds some fun drama to this otherwise calm symmetrical scene of yachts moored behind Gate 3, Dock E, in South Beach Marina.
I hadn't been to a ball game since 2019. (Also my first trip to this stadium since 2008.) This game labored through the early innings with a lot of pitches thrown but not a huge amount of scoring. Milwaukee took a 3 run lead into the 9th and I figured with Josh Hader coming in to close it would be over quickly. I hadn't realized he had been struggling lately. 3 home runs later, the Giants walked off the field as winners. It was the first walk-off grand slam for the Giants since Bobby Bonds hit one in 1973.
Reflections of masts converge with the actual masts of the yachts at Dock D in hazy early morning side light. These ever changing lighting conditions are made possible by the time of day, the time of year, the cooperation of the fog, the amount of haze, and the weather and the wind which supply the necessary breaks in the clouds.
