About Yesterday evening, the moon was almost full, and every time there was a break in the clouds, it would appear. I stopped the truck and sat down on the grass with the camera braced on my knee. The wind was blowing very hard, and there was movement in the leaves, so I used smart blur in PS, and resized.

Dave Stacey   {K:115302} 11/27/2004
Great shot of the moon through cloud and the tree silhouettes, Rebecca! Well done!
Dave.

Great Job, I'm sure you froze your tookus off getting this shot, I know it was cold in this part of Virginia. The blur gives this photo a softness & the colors are soft & pastel. The result is a wonderful dreamlike quality. Nice work- love it! Dottie


Alison DuFlon   {K:35793} 11/27/2004
Very beautiful, yet a little ominous at the same time it has a very cold feel to it, with amazing color in the sky. Very nice. Alison


Stuart Mackay    {K:4442} 11/27/2004
Wow .. Just tryed this and had no luck.. Wonderful shot Rebecca.
sm..


Rebecca Raybon   {K:26655} 11/27/2004
Stuart, it wasn't totally dark out yet, or I probably couldn't have done it either. The sun had just gone down, yet there were still colors in the sky. I think I had the aperture on 5.6 and just kept trying speeds until I managed to get one light enough . Thanks :)

Very nice lunar photo Rebecca!
I almost took this same shot tonight while I was riding home but didn't feel like pulling over to compose it!
The moon was so BIG and stunning!!
Well done!
my best...............JOHN

Breathtaking! Your work just blows me away! To favorites!
Carolyn


Rebecca Raybon   {K:26655} 11/27/2004
Thank you so much Carolyn! That comment really makes my day! After a bad day, it's nice things said, such as yours, that washes all my troubles away! I appreciate this so much :)


Gregory McLemore   {K:25074} 11/27/2004
Wow, stellar beauty, moody and masterfully done.


Matthew Knafel   {K:923} 11/27/2004
When I take pictures like this, I like to use about a 2 minute shutter speed and an aperture of about f3. This makes the clouds look like streaks of light in the sky. It's also better to hide the moon behind a tree because it would be overexposed with those settings.


Rebecca Raybon   {K:26655} 11/27/2004
Thanks Matthew. I'll remember that next time I have my film camera out. I'm limited to 2 seconds on my digital. :(


Ian McIntosh   {K:38714} 11/27/2004
The wind was on form that night. Very nice effects.


Neal Nye   {K:15827} 11/27/2004
Oh there's nothing quite so satisfying as a touch of spookiness at the end of a hard day. Everything about this turned out to be exactly right. (Did you know before that you had a "tookus?")


Fadel J   {K:13584} 11/27/2004
Very beautiful capture Rebecca, I love the tones of the sky a lot!


Rafael  Burgos   {K:1361} 11/27/2004
Congrats. This is fantastic work.


Roberto Arcari Farinetti   {K:177201} 11/27/2004
Absolutely a "time from wolves" and a big atmospere... terrific

Fabrice Gourbilleau   {K:53288} 11/27/2004
Strong atmosphere.. How is the shot without the blurry effect, Rebecca?


Marusnik Bela   {K:11611} 11/27/2004

Very moody Rebecca.
Like it.
Jim Gamble


P. Christine Skinner   {K:27338} 11/27/2004
Beautiful beautiful soft indigo sky Rebecca. The gorgeous full moon peeking through the delicate lacework of the tree. Your time and freezing your 'tookus' (that's a new one I have never heard) off were certainly worth it. A stunning end to the day.


Subhash Sen   {K:11061} 11/27/2004
super shot,love,Subhash.


Rebecca Raybon   {K:26655} 11/27/2004
I'll enclose a small version uncropped and without the blur..you can decide, Fabrice. :)



Fabrice Gourbilleau   {K:53288} 11/27/2004
Thank you Rebecca.. I find that in this shot, the atmosphere is present too.. I prefer whithout blur.. The trees contribute to this particular atmosphere that you have catched.. THank you for sharing Rebecca. See you ;)


Del Metheny   {K:25369} 11/27/2004
Great use of the trees in the photo, but I am having too much fun picturing you taking the photo to comment on the photo itself. Del.


Tim  Schumm   {K:26927} 11/28/2004
Hi Rebecca,

Larry Quigley   {K:12884} 11/28/2004
