Day 33-Moonlight Pics

I love the shadowing from the branches of this tree in our back yard. I am so in love with the moon and my tri-pod now!!! I just can't wait until it gets warmer. My fingers were so frozen after this, I couldn't even take my camera off off the tri-pod...Brrrrrr!!!
Shadow of my camera (and the bottom of the tri-pod's leg) taking THIS pic. I had no problem getting out of the pic as I had a 10 second shutter speed.
Row of pine trees between our house and our neighbors. We need more trees!!!
I like that you can see stars in the sky. This is compositionally a really crappy pic, I really don't know what I was thinking, but the stars are cute, don't ya think?
The grasses around our pond.
Day 33- Moonlight Pics

I took some fun pics today, but they won't post until tomorrow morning, but I DID go out tonight and brave the BITTER cold to take some more moonlight pics (for Meredith). I have decided that I will need to work with a flashlight from now on as it is really, really, really hard to focus in the dark and forget about auto focus, it's more confused than I am. Here is the result of about 12 minutes worth of shooting, freezing and really long exposures. I am going to try some more tomorrow, but I am going to get Mark to go with me and assist me at Kensington, that should be beautiful in the moonlight. Yay...I love today!!!
Until Tomorrow,
