Moon sandwich by Quentin Bargate

Its "solo", and moreover, trapped between two cloud layers - or thats how it looked to my jaded eye :-)


other sizes: small medium original auto

A gentle, smiling and solitary moon. A simply gorgeous and captivating exposure. Gets my vote ;-)

Thats a great shot, your timing was critical, with the sun position just right to give the shadow on the upper clouds and still illuminating the lower ones, plus to get such a great shot of the moon.
Best regards,
Shelby

Hi John, This is a straight shot, not a composite. I saw these two different banks of cloud with the rising moon, set up the 14nx with the 80-400 on a tripod and waited for the right moment :-) - Quentin

Hi Flick, thanks, but I confess I have struggled to find good material for this competition. Fun trying though :-)
