Moon Behind Palm Tree
I just got back from a nice warm place (the Palm Springs area), so here's a shot of last week's full moon behind a palm tree for Skywatch Friday.
This was a hard shot to get handheld with my Nikon D40X, which isn't a great camera for low-light photography (and it's old so it's starting to develop too many hot pixels). It's occasions like this that make me wish I had a D7000, which is much better at capturing images like this. But I'll work with what I've got!

Oh lovely -- glad you got some warm sunshine -- nice contrast.
ReplyDeleteIt's very nice, though! I don't have any fancy camera equipment and I hate that...my moon shots look like dots! :-)
