I actually haven't noticed it looking much larger.......but you have younger eyes, so maybe you're right!

Good for you! I was up early too, also 6 a.m., but I had things to take care of before taking any photos!

By the time I saw it, it was slowly sinking in the southwestern sky.

In Bokeh, the background is out-of-focus but here, the foreground is out-of-focus. Would that make this an anti-Bokeh image, or might there be another term for this?

In any case, it's a very nice effect, Peggy!

You have brought up an intriguing question! I have no idea if there's a name for a blurry foreground.

I'm glad you like what I did, dear Talitha.
