Moon over Resurrectoin Bay, Seward, Alaska.

Moon over Resurrection Bay, Seward, Alaska.

This was from last night at 11:15 p.m.  I couldn’t believe how huge the moon looked last night – and how calm the bay was, we have been having a wonderful stretch of weather!

Thank you so much for capturing this exceptional moment. I love it. I love the moon and call it the friendly moon, the friend of the babies, the lamp of the nights, the source of the glory of the nights, . When it turns half or less i call it the eye of heaven and when a cresent i call it the smile of heaven. Thank you God bless you.

Nicely composed! Reminds me of a Birdsall painting.

Thanks again for sharing the wonder and power of nature with us! Magic spreading across the world. Saw my 1st seasonal rainbow today after some playing in the rain. I love being and adult having fun barefoot too. Mary

Ohh, I have gooseflesh all over from this awesome photo. The moon does look huge, and I love the pink reflections of its light on the water.

Adam, I just love your poetic descriptions of the phases of the moon – we do have an awesome God. I imagine Him smiling at our pleasure of His creation.

Thanks Dena!

This was with a Canon 1Ds III and a 100-400 at 260mm. Exposure was @ f/8, for 1/3 of a second and ISO 100. Very little adjustment in Photoshop.

Good info!
Next time I try to get a moon shot, I’ll try something like that!

Thanks,
Dena
