On the evening of March 19, 2011, the moon was not only full, it was as close to the Earth as is has been in eighteen years. I set up my tripod and got my camera and 600mm lens ready and waited. Moonrise was later than I thought, it had to come up over Cold Mountain for me to see it, and there was a lot of clouds moving through the area.
Here's the link to my gallery of 13 shots I made of the "Super Moon".

Seems like a nice shot and a nature´s touch Chip!
ReplyDeleteOh moon so high and gleaming bright
ReplyDeleteLighting the dark recesses of night
Glowing liquid silver swath
Clear luminescence marks my path
Leading me through a dark winter wood
To the sacred place where my ancestors stood
Singing your praises, arms raised high
While stately and graceful the stars roll by
Debra and Mattias,
