Super Moon 2016

I was ready for the super moon of 2016 last evening.  Camera settings checked and tripod set up.

I got a few lovely shots as the moon was first rising then as its color faded I got a few more shots.  When I was ready to go to work this morning I stepped outside and the moon was even more beautiful!  I snatched the camera and no tripod because Mr Moon was descending quickly.  As it was going down behind the leaf barren trees I snapped away.  I felt I missed the shots but upon uploading my pictures I realized the trees gave it character all its own!

Last evening - Nov 13

The moon was rising and growing bigger!

Last evening  - Nov 13

As it lost its orange glow the moon was still visibly larger than usual.

Strawberry Moon 2016

The clouds finally flitted away and all that was left was the light of the Strawberry Moon!

The rising had a slow partially covered start!

As the moments ticked the clouds seemed they would win by over taking the moon.

Finally as the moon rose I could sing

I can see clearly now!

--the clouds are gone.....

Blue Moon kind of night!

It always takes me a thought (or two, three..) to get the correct settings to capture the moon.

I was waiting for it to rise over the mountains here in Pennsylvania.

I was able to capture Mr Blue Moon just as he was bright orange!

As Mr Blue Moon travelled into the night sky he lost his sunny glow, 

but was still a sight to see!
