Moon Meets Tower on Cloudy Night by taffy

Moon Meets Tower on Cloudy Night

Disappointing to have a cloudy night but I had fun taking photos of the full moon anyway. I'm posting two, contrasting ways of looking at the moon. It's influenced by our mentor groups theme of focal length as the focal length (300mm here, 70mm in the other one) really changes the feel.

This look great on black! I prefer the full moon with clouds. I like the texture the clouds give the sky.

I like this one as it has a very different feel to it although I am struggling to put it into words.

As usual you have taken a repetitive subject on 365 and given it a new prospective or is it perspective.

But the mist is what makes this a stand-out shot- especially with the moon being pierced by the tower.

Super timing, capture, composition

I like the unique misty feel of this shot and the surreal glow of the lights at the top of the Sears Tower. The other shot is lovely, too, but this one is more unusual. The smudge of bluish light around the moon is really pretty.

Such a contrast to the other shot - very atmospheric!! Wonderful timing with the moon speared by the tower!! You have such a great eye for a shot!!

This is a bit other-worldly, nicely spotted Taffy.
April 5th, 2015  
Very surreal, the clouds are perfect for this shot
April 5th, 2015  
Like a still from a sci-fi movie, very striking.

You take amazing photos, Taffy. I love this one, so unusual and a FAV. My main computer is down for good now as far as using iPhoto and slowing down, the cursor comes and goes, Safari shuts down and typing slows down as well. Photos cannot be emailed as my computer freezes 100% and have to shut it down at that point. Posting is slow as well. All photos are backed up so not adding new photos and backup will be placed on his laptop that is still here from previously using it. My son is pretty sure that at the age of 6 years it needs to be replaced :(. Just cannot afford another computer right now so he will buy me a monitor and attach it to his laptop for me and I will use my keyboard for my desktop computer. He will take my desktop home and see if he can figure out any reason it is doing what it is doing in his free time. I hope all is moving forward with your home. Oh, the house next door is up for sale and we got rain, thunder, lightening and hail today.
