Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View
For today's view I am sharing two images of the Moon from Saturday's Full Moon Walk. Two to show the contrast between the Moon when it first rose above the horizon and about an hour later when it was higher in the night sky. Please keep in mind that the first shot was handheld so it is not as clear as I would like. Next time I'll bring my tripod. The second shot was made after we got back to the car and I was able to use my tripod. It is much clearer and shows a lot more detail.
That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
Welcome To The Exploration Photography Daily View
Last night Kim and I attended a night walk at the Cape May National Wildlife Refuge with the intent of shooting the (almost) full Moon. It's called the Full Moon Walk and it's an event they hold periodically throughout the year. And it would have been perfect. We were right at the shore of the Atlantic and there was very little light pollution out over the water. We even saw a lot of stars in the sky. Much more than at home just twenty miles from Philadelphia. The was one problem though. There was a thick haze on the horizon that made the Moon virtually impossible to see. I waited for a bit but knew it would be a wash. So we headed back to the Nature Center and packed up my camera gear. We went inside to freshen up and when we came out I looked up and saw a beautiful view. The Moon decided to make an appearance. It was behind some clouds but I think it made for a nice composition. Especially with it's red hue. So I shot several frames and decided this was the one I wanted to share here with you. What do you think?
This was our first time in joining the Full Moon Walk but I think we'll be going again. Maybe the weather will be nicer and we'll get some clearer views. Stay tuned.
That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time...
