Full Wolf Moon - or January's Full Moon. I was hoping to find out why I don't seem to capture as many details in a full moon shot versus a half moon or even a quarter moon shot. I'll try again next full moon. Day 20:365 @sharkbayte

  • Happy New Year
  • Tonight's Moon
  • June 20, 2011- Took this early in the am on the 19th. Jasper needed to go outside and when I saw the moon I couldn't resist. I didn't think the sky was going to clear up from the storm earlier in the evening, but I am glad it did. (day 171:365 @sharkbayte)
  • June 13, 2011-Moon lit branches. We had another t-storm, some heavy rain and strong wind. I wasn't going to try for a moon shot, but after hearing something hit my roof and then drop onto the ground. I went outside to investigate. It was a huge branch that the park manager was going to have removed because it was right over my roof. The noise from this branch was so loud my next-door neighbor came outside to see what had happened. The rain had stopped and i saw the moon peering through the tree branches. Thought it was pretty neat, even though it was very foggy. (Day 164:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 12, 2011- Eight day old moon or a waxing Gibbous moon, I been trying to capture the moon as soon as I can; starting at day three or four. But Mother Nature likes to mess with me. So far I have managed days five, seven and last night's eight day old moon. I am hoping for tonight, we'll see what Mother Nature wants to do. (Day 102:365 @sharkbayte)
  • April 8, 2011-Waxing Crescent Moon, last night’s moon was only four days old. I try to capture the moon as early as I can. I was trying for a two and three day old moon, but I wasn't able to with the weather conditions. So this is the earliest I can get for this cycle. (Day 98:365 @sharkbayte for daily Post)
  • March 20, 2011-Last night's moon was coined a super moon because of how it would appear much larger to us. It is also called the worm moon. 79:365 @sharkbayte
  • March 19, 2011-last night's waxing gibbous moon, fourteen days old and ninetynine percent full. Tonights moon will appear to be much larger as it is the closest to the earth than it has been in many years. I am hoping for a clear night to capture it. 78:365 @sharkbayte
  • March 18, 2011-A Waxing Gibbous Moon. Taken last night. Thirteen days old and 95% full. 77:365 @sharkbayte
  • March 13, 2011-Last night's moon was called the first quarter moon. It was eight days old and already fifty percent full. (Day 72 #365Project @sharkbayte)
  • March 8, 2011- Waxing Crescent Moon -2. This is the second moon shot. I used different settings for this one to compare to my other moon shot today. Settings for this are ISO: 400 1/125 sec @f/7.1
  • March 9, 2011- Waxing Crescent Moon. Four day old moon, 15% full. Day 68 #365Project @sharkbayte
  • February 18, 2011-The Snow Moon. This month’s full moon is often called the snow moon. February is usually the month of heaviest snow. Day 49 #356Project @sharkbayte
  • February 16, 2011-Last night's moon (waxing gibbous), is only 13 days old and 93% full. I am reshooting most if not all of my last year's moon shots so I can do a calendar. I am hoping to get the full phase calendar. Day 47 #365Project @sharkbayte
  • February 13, 2011- The Waxing Gibbous (nine day old) Moon. I finally captured it during the day. I have such a hard time getting a day time shot of the moon. Wasn't sure what I was doing wrong, it was always too faint, not a lot of details, just a bad shot. But this time, (2/12/11) I finally got it! Day 44 #365Project @sharkbayte
  • Full Wolf Moon - or January's Full Moon. I was hoping to find out why I don't seem to capture as many details in a full moon shot versus a half moon or even a quarter moon shot. I'll try again next full moon. Day 20:365 @sharkbayte
  • Waxing Gibbous-Nine day old moon. 62% visible. I took this last night on the deck, I still can't get down the ramp because of the ice. Maybe today the rest of the ice will melt. Day 14:365 @sharkbayte
  • I was so ready for the total lunar eclipse, until I saw all the clouds. This is all I got for the eclipse. Maybe next time. Day 355 (2010.12.21) @sharkbayte
  • The Harvest Moon. Last night's full moon, one of my favorites. For me fall doesn't start until the harvest moon appears. #365Project Day 296 (2010.10.23) @sharkbayte
  • Last night's moon, not quite full but darn close! Waxing gibbous 98% full. I am hoping with the weather's cooperation to take a shot at tonight's full moon. Day 295 (2010.10.22) #365project @sharkbayte

    Hope you are well. Your moon shots are fantastic. You must have a great telephoto lens? At 300 mm, I don't think my telephoto lens can pull in close to this level of detail.
