A shy Snow Moon. I went back out to try and capture the full moon after the sun had set. There were clouds tonight which created a moody moon rise. This time I didn't have to hike too far in the dark or in the mud and stuff.
Yesterday I had gone to Prime Lake and captured the moon which was 0.9% larger than tonight but the sun was not set and my exposure just plain sucked. I tried to faff my images into submission but no luck. I did make progress using a 500mm manual lens but will most definitely need to work on my exposure.
This doesn't comply with the "love" sub-category for the flash of red challenge but at least its monotone.
@gggg Very grateful for the fav. I'm just glad that I wasn't visited by any night creatures other than photographers.
@golftragic Your fav is much appreciated. The wind had died down so any howl might have attracted just a few creatures. :):)
@graemestevens Very grateful for the fav. I think that those clouds had a sense of humor that I could have done without but I didn't let them win in the end, :):)
Thank you so much. I learned the hard way that I had to not only use a tripod but also a remote because of camera shake. The lens is an old SLR one so the focus is up to these old eyes with cheaters attached. :):)

@la_photographic Thank you so very much.
@shesnapped Thank you so very kindly for the fav. I think the clouds kept other photographers home that night.
@dustyloup Very appreciative of the fav, thank you. I did 'tame' my mood in the end, as I was really expecting clear skies.
@haskar Thank you so kindly for the fav. I was sorta upset about the clouds but since there wasn't any wind, things worked out okay.
@robz Thank you so much, very grateful for the fav. I almost didn't stay to take shots but glad that I didn't listen to my hesitations.
@rjb71 Most thankful for the fav, thank you so kindly.
@jernst1779 You are so kind, very grateful for the fav.
@bubblequeen Clouds can really make or break a shot. I got lucky here.
@nickspicsnz Thank you so very kindly for the fav. I am on the lower end of the faffing curve, many many lessons to go....
@lostphojo I'm glad that those types were enjoying other pursuits and left me alone to stand in the cold.
