MOON POND by markp

MOON POND

I drive past this local park all the time and could see this shot if everything went as planned. I have tried a few times but either the full Moon was in the wrong position, or it rained or was windy and the surface of the water was disturbed. Last time the pond was full of Swans, geese and ducks and they left ghostly trails all over the place as I tried to take a long exposure shot. I was struggling for a shot today,and saw as I passed that conditions were better. I had a few minutes before I got thrown out as they locked up the park for the night. Don't look too closely as this was handheld, at 1/2 second, didn't have a tripod handy.
The large cloud in the background is actually steam from Fiddlers Ferry Power Station, as in yesterdays shot.
Beautiful image with the sky & the reflection in the lake in a complete symmetry Well executed Mark
