Full Moon on a Cloudy Night



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it. Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

I captured this picture of the full moon over Fairfield Glade on a cloudy evening a couple of years ago. I like the way the moon is partially veiled by the wispy cloud.

Moonlight and Roses, 2 things George is great at, lol.

The way I see it, the moon felt a little chilly and donned a knit (cloud) cap.

Nice shot George.

Wow George wow!!! I clicked twice. I think a few clouds in front of the moon adds a certain moodiness and spookiness, it is more atmospheric.

Hi George. Yes, the railroad bridge that Hiker is sitting on used to be a railroad bridge back in the 1800's.

It's a very clear shot.
This is the kind of moon we've been seeing the last few days.
I don't think my camera will give it justice though.

Lovely moon shot, George.

The patch of cloud does add drama to the composition.

The cloud is so jealous of the moon's beauty.

Lovely moon shot, George. I really like the veil of clouds.

and in a moment of inspiration he realizes why Baron has been barking so much the last few days late at night..... it's true.

Hi George,

Very nice..I've never been able to capture something like this..do I have to have special lenses?


Have a great Monday.

Really nice shot! I am so far behind...just wanted to tell you how glad I am that you enjoyed the "cotton" post I did. The Ag Center is indeed a very important part of our city.
