Full Moon over Resurrection Bay, Seward, Alaska.

This was last night’s beautiful full moon rising over Mt. Alice.  The bay was as calm as a lake!

Manual exposure of 10 seconds at f/8 and ISO 400.  Canon 1DsIII and 24-105 lens at 47.

Interesting lense you are using?? I guess it is a typo?
Great picture anyway, love the misty touch.

Beautiful photo, but I think you sepcified the lens specs wrong :)
Is it possible that you ment 24-105mm lens ?

Ron January 30, 2010 at 10:52 am

LOL – yes, that was with the 24-105, I will fix. A 24-405 would be a handy range!

The full moon was incredible last night! We couldn’t believe how bright it was last night with the moon reflecting on the snow.

Very nice Ron. I read that it was the first “wolf moon” of the year and the brightest.

hi ron..
great pictures..was generally curious on how does the Alaska ship cruises enrich you as purely an amateur photographer..i mean video or still photography..is the experience worthwhile? I am seriously thinking on being one…your thoughts n this please..also hve you been to India..kashmir,rajesthan or backwaters of Kerala?.may be you could consider coming to these palces..and I could come to alaska..or other gud places..a video or a coffee table book can follow. think about it.
take care.

Thanks Sanjeev,

A cruiseship is a very easy, comfortable way to see Alaska and definitely a worthwhile experience – but it is a little tough for photography. Traveling around independently is a better approach in my opinion.

I haven’t been to India or in of the other areas you describe – there are some many beautiful areas in the world, I wish I cold see more of them!

Thanks,

Ron
