Morning Moon by hjbenson

Morning Moon

Had an appointment early this morning. As I was leaving the driveway - about a half-hour after sunrise, I saw the moon to my south. I remembered Paula Brumbe (@brumbe) gave a new Y2 challenge of Moon shots. So here is my first one

To see my other photo for today http://365project.org/hjbenson/others/2012-01-16
Nice! My little one wanted to know why the moon was out with the sun this morning and I thought, "I should try to photograph that....."

I love the fact that you got a shot of the moon. I can never seem to get one that I am happy with. I don't know if it is operator or camera issues. Great shot!

@dancelaughlove hank you Karina, day time moons are much easier
January 17th, 2012  
Nice one Harry, I always wonder if the moon gets confused at times like these!

@angieqs Thank you Angie, it gets me confused :)
January 17th, 2012  
Nice capture. The tree compliments the picture and give a bit of balance.
January 17th, 2012  
Beautiful Harry. The inclusion of the trees is just perfect for the shot:)

@vernabeth Thank you Beth, and without leaves the tree doesn't overpower the moon

Raj
I like the framing of this.
January 18th, 2012  
@raj366 Thank you Raj, I felt the moon needed to be balanced and composed accordingly
January 18th, 2012  
@hjbenson Thank you for the suggestion. I will try that!
January 18th, 2012  
nice job! love the framing with the tree. day-moons are always so lovely in the pale blue sky :)
January 18th, 2012  
@sdpace Thank you Stacy, I knew it needed something to balance it, so I moved around.
January 18th, 2012  
The moon definitely looks different against the blue sky than it does at night. Great shot.
