Love the idea of a 'Drunken Moon'. Must look more closely at the sky, wondering what I might have missed. Congratulations on your place Paul ~ Delice

Thank you Delice! Perhaps it was the author and not the moon that was drunk:) All the best. // paul

Blaming the moon for one's own debauchery. I love this idea, being a sort of lush myself. Love, daver

glad to see how well you did with this one. A question for you, how do you get the moving to keep going on in this kind of picture. My blue moon is supposed to continuously cry tears, but I can't get the picture to do it for me. If you can help me, would you let me know in a soupmail?

Paul Callus

July 8, 2015 at 12:21 PM

Thank you Andrea. I have no magic wand:) It just moves on its own! I visited your blue moon a while ago, and it was 'crying' continuously:)
