Good Night Moon March 1, 2010

Good Night Moon, originally uploaded by pictureapromise.

It was a busy day with work, a trip into town, orders to fill, supper and so on. Bed time and I have not yet taken my pic for today. What to do, I was tempted to skip it, to post a pic from yesterday or 2 years ago! The reason I started this project was so that I would take at least one picture every day. Not a random snapshot of the back of my couch or whatever was handy, but a thought out photo that would stretch my abilities. A photo I'd be proud to say I'd taken. So far, I am very pleased with most of my photos.

I've tried to photograph the moon many times. It's kinda tricky. This is my best to date and I am pleased to share it with you. I love the moon, always have. Nothing compares to playing hide and seek with your friends in the moon light except maybe kissing your fella!

Do something everyday that stretches you, for in stretching you grow!

Blessings~

There's a Moon Out Tonight

Okay, the day is nearly done and I have no pic yet for Day 2 of 365 September 4, 2009. I grab my camera and head outdoors. Too late in the day for flower pics, so I jump in the car and head for the country road where I like to watch the sun set. Another sunset~only there are never two the same right? I took sunset pics, tons of them, some of them I really liked too. I finished up and turned around and there on the eastern horizon was a rising moon. Of course I didn't have my zoom lens or my tripod so I hurry home and grab the rest of my gear. (Always take everything because you just never know!) I got back out to my country road and got a few shots. I tried some on auto and then played with manual settings. This is something I am learning more about so it was a good exercise. There were a couple I liked but chose this one because you can see the lights on the antenna. It was one of the ones I shot in the manual mode.
