Reading.. by maggiemae

Reading..

It was full moon tonight and its a good thing I took this photo as a back-up as none of my moon photos turned out to my liking. It was too bright. I'll have to read a manual again.

Three good things:
1. Another fine day and I hoped the neighbours didn't peek over the fence as I was not totally dressed, catching the sun!
2. Finished one book, started another.
3. The best moon photo I saw came from another 354er - Julia - @julzmaioro !
Always nice to sit down with a good book!
Great back up shot!

Wonderful composition and editing.

Looks like a pleasant day! I don't know about your camera, but I put mine in AV mode at 200 ISO. If it's overly bright then I decrease the exposure ( the + and - scale) until I get the details I want. I would imagine the principle is the same for you even though I'm working with a Canon.

@olivetreeann I thought of that after too, Ann. Might try tonight if the moon is available!

Why thank you Maggie ... I was just a little chuffed with my moon ... I have tried several times over the 5 years with a DSLR camera and this was the best shot I have managed http://365project.org/julzmaioro/around-and-abou/2017-12-04

You are looking very relaxed ...

@maggiemae The good thing (well at least one of three!) is that if you don't get it this month, it'll be back around next month!

I've given up trying to get that moon shot. I'll join you reading the manual 8-)

Always good to relax with a nice book.

@tonydebont Trouble is Tony, the moment that I open the manual, I forget what I was looking for!

@olivetreeann and,.... Ann ...who wants to be perfect!

@julzmaioro shot was amazing, couldn't hope to better that! How lovely to see you relaxing in the sun, I am envious! DIL says it's very hot in North Island!

@happypat It would be humid up there too which is sweat inducing! Just nice down here for sitting in the sun and moving to the shade when enough sun!

I can feel the warmth!

This does look very relaxed. Are they tall foxgloves? The moon will be back.
