October 6th, 2009

The only thing missing from this morning's photo-a-day entry are some wispy clouds to give the background some texture . . . but this ain't all that bad! I tried getting a shot of the beautiful 'Hunter's Moon' last night, but it was just to overcast, so this, I reckon, is the next best thing. And this is why professional photographers call the twilight hour before and just after sunrise the Golden Hour . . . the light you get is just amazing. 

Captured on full manual mode with my Nikon 70-200mm. Shooting at f/8 with a shutter speed of 640th of a second. ISO is down to 100. Contrary to popular belief, the moon is quite bright, so hand holding a moon shot is totally doable - as seen here. No tripod necessary!
