    This is cool- I dreamed of getting a shot like that last week when the full moon was doing it’s thing but wasn’t able to because the clouds were going by too quick and it was too dark…anyways : )

  • Adam Gormley replied

    I think I got lucky here, after the moon went through a couple of small holes in the clouds, it dissapeared for well over 6 hours. I wanted to get some overhead shots too :)

    i went to chase the moon this morning and to my dismay it set like a racing horse!!
    it was full and beautiful and above the horizon at least 20 degrees, i stopped 10 min tops
    to get a cup of coffee and still seeing it, i made one stop where i saw a beautiful foreground
    noticed that the moon appeared to be blocked by a house, and as a drove further south,
    literally within a minute i watched it disappear into the horizon!! i was soooooooo sad.
    mother nature can be such a tease sometimes.

    BRILLIANT shot! ;-)

    To me, it’s saying I’m the moon; and, it’s me that’s controlling these waves.

  • Adam Gormley replied

    Thank you very much Paul, appreciated :)
