    Full moon rising

    On another photo site I frequent I was recently reminded of a nice old lens I have but haven't used in a little while. So for last night's evening skate ski I brought a pack and carried my Pentax A*300mm f/4 which is a fairly substantial hunk of glass and metal. I also brought my K-5, a couple of other primes, and my tripod.
    I had a spot in mind that I wanted to make it to before the moon came up but I got off to a late start. That late start led me to a very hard cardio workout trying to make it in time but I still didn't. So I changed my plan and found an alternate spot where I could catch the moon (as well as my breath) a little higher with some foreground interest. But the dynamic range was too great to get any moon detail in combination with foreground so I decided to use the moon's light but not the actual moon. I like it but I also really want to be at that spot at the right time for another full moon. Maybe next month...

    This one really works for me... composition, color, everything! Nicely done. Can't wait for the next full moon.
