The Moon In Souderton, Pennsylvania

Last night after I came home from a Live Your Calling Discovery Group session, I took some time to photograph the moon. The moon had been really large in the sky but till I got my camera out and set up it had already decreased somewhat in size. Nevertheless, I thought it was still beautiful. The last photo was a slow shutter speed and the second photo was cropped before making it the same pixel width as the other photos here.

Very nice. I loved to watch the moon as a child. I remember laying on my back in the back seat of my parents' car on return trips from my sister's home. I'd watch the moon as it "followed" us from above and was always enthralled by it's beauty!!!

Cergie said...

Really, these pictures are wonderful...
It is necessary to be very still to manage to have a moon so neat despite the darkness of the sky and the lack of light

Bravo !
