Waning Gibbous Moon

3 AM

Age: 19 days Old

4 Days following the historical 2016 "Super Duper Moon" http://www.pbase.com/britestar/super_duper_moon

This month's Waning Gibbous Moon was photographed hand held with only my Nikon P900 Bridge Camera and nothing special. But I think the shot turned out pretty nice.

It was a cloudy night, but the clouds were fast moving. At one point, the moon looked somewhat blue to my naked eye. That's what caused me to get the camera. However, by the time I got the camera, the blue tint was gone. Darn!!!

Color above is whatever the P900's JPG came me. It seems to be more gold toned than white. Even so, the moon was pretty high when I photographed it.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Really nice shot. I love the detail you managed to get and the "fade to black" of the moon.

Wow, look at all that detail! We had only heavy clouds. :(
