Tonight-Shoot the Moon. The SuperMoon

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

We have an on going discussion in the photography group.  Shoot the Moon.  Many of these shots were taken with a telephoto lens.  Not tonight.  All you need is a regular camera or even your cell phone.  I'll be taking the music of Nora Jones with me ( thank you Donna).  Here is the music.

There are a lot of old legions about the SuperMoon: going insane, going blind.. anyway, it is powerful. 

BRIAN WILLIAMS explains in this next video about the Supermoon

Try to capture Scale and join us  with your pictures in the discussion.

Even if you don't feel like taking pictures, enjoy a beautiful evening outside with your dogs. 

Here is how: 

The moon will rise at 9:35 EST tonight.  The first hour or two is the best for capturing the moon.

Thanks Anne. You're not that far from us. Have y'all been bothered with mosquitoes this year? They are eating us alive here!

[Anne & Mr. Haley]

Mostly they haven't been too bad this year. Just enough rain or total lack of it I guess.

[BG and Gavin]

FABULOUS Joy!!

[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

My idea of an ideal shot --A doodle silhouette with the Super Moon

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

This is too cool!

Joanne, you are setting us up for failure with that IDEAL SHOT post, geeesh!

[Pat and Traveler]

Wow, Joanne!  Is THAT what the supermoon is supposed to look like???  Dang.

[F, Calla & Luca]

Wow!! But you need the right props, a person or dog, in the right place at the right time. It doesn't even look dark in the photo.

I also stopped in Athens on my way home.
