here’s a trio of pictures of the moon that i took and really quite like.
this one, i call “cold moon.” i took this picture in january, thru the bare trees in the back yard. i wanted better focus, but i just couldn’t get it. i need to figure out a good setting on my camera for photographing the moon. i love taking pictures of the moon… as you might have noticed. even if they’re not clear, it’s still fun to take them.
this one i took after sunset. it was a nice night, the sky was lovely and there was the moon. as my friend eric used to say (i believe he was quoting something), “the moon is out and it is daytime… it mocks me.” of course, i could also quote robin williams and say, “the moon, like a testicle, hung low in the sky.” except that this one isn’t really hanging low, is it?
this one i took later in the evening on the same day as the one above. i love the way the lightof the moon shows on the clouds sometimes… that’s what i was trying to catch with this picture.
