160715_143912_0303 Winter Sun With Dissolved Moon (Fri 15 Jul 16)

At Home, Illawarra, NSW

The relatively weak winter sun bounces off the bare branches of our crepe myrtle tree. The pale, dissolved disk that sits in the background is the moon. I have far too little DOF to get that as an integral part of the shot (even when I stopped down further) and to keep the branches sharp, despite the fact that this was originally intended to be a shot of the moon framed by the branches. In the end I decided that I'd rather keep the branches and the light that's on them.

I like the light and shadows on the myrtle, makes the moon interesting.

The light is very lovely. Well composed and nice framing of the moon. V

I like the light on the wood of the crepes, and the seed pods. My neighbors crepes are over two stories tall. I've been meaning to photograph them.
