Super Moon

Were you able to see the Super Moon in your area?  The clouds cooperated and cleared up so I could photograph it.  This photo has been cropped and sharpened but other than that, it's straight out of the camera.  I used my 75-300mm lens on a tripod {aperture 8.0, shutter speed 1/500 and ISO 800} and just about froze out on the porch.  Brrr!!  But it was worth it.

    Excellent Lynda! No I didn't see it very much due to clouds. My goal was to photograph it as it was rising. When that didn't happen I didn't bother. You got a great shot though!

    Hi Lynda. Did you take this photo? OMG it is gorgeous.

    Yes, we had a super clear evening and I could see the man in the moon. I was thinking about you and wanted to stop by and see what gorgeousness you were up to. I took out my book on Inspiration Boards and was browsing.

    I hope that you have a lovely evening.

    Hi Lynda, wow, what a shot!!!!!!!

    Yes, we had a clear night! We were all so excited to watch the moon rise and see it cross the sky.

    I didn't even attempt to take any photos, though, so I'm really pleased and impressed that you got this one. Bravo!

    That is absolutely striking!
    It is almost as if you took a rocket ship up into the starry sky and took a picture up close!
    So beautiful.

    You have the most lovely photographs! Especially of the moon, which is quite difficult to capture. Beautiful! Unfortunately I missed seeing it the other evening :( Glad that you got such a lovely photograph of it though! :D
