Crescent Moon  by olivetreeann

Crescent Moon

Another moonshot I've always wanted to take! There's room for improvement here but when you're in a busy parking lot using your car door as a tripod and the guy in the next car is looking at you like you should be committed, you do your best to get a dozen shots as quickly as you can and get out of there!
I love this, Ann! Minimalism, perfection!

Lovely details, great use of negative space. I think that the techniques challenge is minimalist, you should tag it.

I love your tale of how you got this great moon pic. Especially the guy who thought you were crazy. Good going, Ann.

So many thank yous to so many great people! I truly appreciate all the enthusiastic comments on this one!

@fugitivemoments Better and sharper focus mostly. I really needed a tri-pod for this shot. But I don't have one- yet. Might possibly have one by the end of the week depending on whether I'll be able to get to the camera shop to check them out.

Great job getting the crescent and some detail. I don't pay attention to onlookers anymore. Fav.

@summerfield Thanks Vikki- only when they look at me strangely like that guy was. If they're not really looking at me or even if they just smile or look concerned that I might be taking them but keep on going, I'm ok. But he was looking me over and actually seemed angry that I was taking shot of the moon in the parking lot. I stayed close to the car, and if he got out, I was going to get in my car and get out of there!

@prttblues Thanks Bev! Most people don't bother me. But this guy did not look like a pleasant person and all I could think of was "if he gets out of his car, I'm getting in mine asap!"
