Moon

The Moon shone bright, even as a crescent, which blocked most of the South sky from deep sky observing.

Since my last post on January’s eclipse, I have observed the night sky when opportunity presented itself.

Wonderful stargazing weather. That is how I describe last night, though I am sure some would disagree because it was a little chill.

I would like to say that today’s image was made possible from careful planning and thoughtful execution.

A nearly Full Moon was on clear display tonight, lighting up a pleasantly mild July evening.

I don’t always photograph the Moon in broad daylight. But when I do, I try to include a former world’s tallest building, for perspective.

Just one problem, though – the Moon was approaching Full and washed much of the sky out. So I settled for looking at the Moon, mostly.
