Pre-dedication Cebu City Temple Photos2

May 16

Attached is a collection of recent photos of the Cebu City Temple that I'd like to share.  Tonight was a very unusual scene at the Temple complex as a less than quarter moon came up over the spire to the west and south-west with a single star above it.  Many people in the temple complex were delighted at the beauty and uniqueness of such a sight.  I was just leaving the Temple Committee meeting when I saw this and took photos.  I'm also
including other day and evening time photos. I noticed that the position in the Temple complex was not right to catch both the complete moon, star and Temple in one photo, just the edge of the
temple.  So I drove to the Waterfront Hotel to the east, took the elevator to the 18th floor, met a man who was a resident in the Hotel, plus hotel attendant who kindly took me up some stairs and around to a dark room with window that opened.  I set the stage by telling them of the unusual position of the moon and star.  The Temple out of this hotel window was glorious.
The attached photos do not do justice to the beauty of this stunning scene looking west to the Temple Compound.
