Moon

IMG_9069

Last month I spent an interesting hour or so taking photos of the moon, here you can see the results. They are not fantastic quality but I am very pleased with the photos I did get. I have not photo-shopped any of the photos, I only ever play with the brightness and contrast and of course use the crop tool!

Interestingly it was supposed to be a ‘rose’ moon, seems that my camera picked up the pink on some of the photos.

  3. Goodness, these are beautiful! I've never taken pictures of the moon when it has clouds on front of it, but I'll have to try it now. The clouds in these shots are so cool! Thanks for sharing them!!

  4. You have captured so many emotions of the moon. I have a series called many moons of photos, but without a good zoom I just can't capture it well like these photos of yours. I so love how the clouds have moved by. Happy Spring to you.

  7. I find your moon blog at a timely moment - 2 in the morning in the North Atlantic just before I had to pop out and attend to some of the knob twiddling that I get paid money for. I seemed to have picked the moment when there was a gap in the clouds and the moon was up there saying, "that was me in those photos". It looks good reflected in the sea (where it's just a big white smear rather than round) - not as full as your moon I'm afraid.
