Day 268

Photographing the moon is difficult: you either get the exposure right for the moon, or you get the exposure right for the rest of the frame and the moon looks like the sun. The only solution I can see is to take it as a composite image, which is what I did here. One exposure for the moon, and one for the silhouette of the cow against Dun Laoghaire.

Day 206

Christmas Day, and with my new Canon I can finally take a photo of the moon. It's not the greatest shot, but as first shots go I'm very pleased with it.

Day 181

A cold night last night coming over the Connor Pass last night, all the more so as I spent ten minutes waiting for midnight to pass so that I could legitimately say that I took this today. A long exposure by moonlight, and a wide aperture, and amazingly the sky turned out blue.

Day 179

Long day, long night, but a beautiful clear night, and a full moon to distract from the freezing cold.

Day 57

A couple of false starts this evening, and I was starting to regret my earlier ignoring of cloudscapes and sunsets. And as I was also strating to regret taking the Inch road as I sat behind the world's slowest driver, but as I came around the corner I saw this vista; a welcome opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.
