9 AM with Cloud Cover by Weezilou

9 AM with Cloud Cover

This is for Adam who posted this photo http://365project.org/adambralston/other-photos-to/2014-04-18 and asked if others might get a similar lighting. Today was the first day we had cloud cover (Friday 4-25) and I gave it a try. ...it does look more like moonlight than bright sunburst... At his suggestion, I set my camera on "LO" and took the exposure down two steps. This is the only camera I brought this week... I can try it again with the DSLR when I return home.

Thanks for suggesting the technique, Adam!

@adambralston As you requested, Adam... I asked my daughter what she saw in the picture and she said, "...moonlight?..." Good enough!

Well done! I too thought it was moonlight till I read your comment.

Well done!! Are you getting any rain today? We keep hearing we should expect some during the night tonight. NOTE: We're going to be out of touch for the next two weeks. Will catch up with posting when we return.

@aglennc Thanks Anita! Lots of cloud cover today & the temps dropped as we sat outside having the picnic dinner... Just came in from seeing this evening's performance of Man of La Mancha...no rain. Ashley & Ken put all new plants & a garden on the patio (finished this afternoon) so rain would be delightfully welcome! (I caught something about forthcoming travels...do tell! Lucky you!)

@aglennc It sounds *wonderful*! (My kind of travel...but I've yet to see that part of the world!) EnjoyEnjoyEnjoy!

Oh yes! That's what I've been thinking about. Very moody atmosphere, and the light does appear to be moonlight. You know, really moonlight is just reflected sunlight anyway.
