It was still a bit light and the moon was certainly larger and more yellow...but there wasn't a defined reflection on the water like there is in this one.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I'm totally spoiled as I've lived my life on the bay with these types of views...Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677808307727487766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21829866.post-1160285858146245802006-10-08T01:37:00.000-04:002006-10-08T01:37:00.000-04:00An earlier shot might have shown a reflection on t...An earlier shot might have shown a reflection on the water making for a more striking picture, if it had been dark enough ;-)<BR/><BR/>And, I believe the moon would have also appeared larger at the lower angle, in addition to the different hue...<BR/><BR/>But then, I don't have a lake view to test this :-( <BR/><BR/>(Extreme jealousy talking here)Hooda Thunkit (Dave Zawodny)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13176392380086227377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21829866.post-1160226749297477732006-10-07T09:12:00.000-04:002006-10-07T09:12:00.000-04:00Actually, I wasn't sure this would turn out - it w...Actually, I wasn't sure this would turn out - it was much better in person. This photo was taken without a flash and with NO adjustments to the camera/lens. I didn't even put it on "night." So you can tell how bright the moon was.<BR/><BR/>I only regret that I wasn't home early enough to actually see it begin to rise - this time of year it's often yellow/orange...maybe I'll try tonight!Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677808307727487766noreply@blogger.com
