I have such a hard time with night shots still. These are beautiful. Mine come out all grainy LOL.

Your moon photos are like poetry to me. Well, to speak only truth all your photos are poems!

Last week when the shootings were going on, mom said, "It must be the full moon!"

I don't know why it duplicated my comment, but my computer shut down & restarted all by itself immediately after clicking 'Publish Your Comment'

I've gotta look into it. Weird

These are wonderful shots of the moon. I know how difficult it is to get a good picture and these are beautiful.

If the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie... that's amore. =)

What lovely moon shots, Carletta! I, too, love the first one, but the last one with the dark trees is really exquisite!

Enjoy your weekend!

Carletta: Very nice shots of the full moon and lovely music with "Moon River".

Gel said...

Gorgeous! I'm swooning over the second. I have been known as "Moonlady" in blogland by a blogger who no longer blogs. I have yet to master capturing the moon in photography. I like the music accompanying your post.

Just gimme a second, I just can't help but stare!

Perfect shots Carletta. I've tried many times, but without a tripod, I've not had very much luck.
Happy SWF.

Goodness, have you taken to sleep-photographing?
Both are beautiful, especially the second with the golden glow and shadowy trees.

Carver said...

Wow these are fantastic shots of the moon.

Inday said...

We seldom see pictures of the moon featured in skywatch so surely this is a nice treat. Love the fabulous capture on top. You must have a telescopic camera. :)

Truly stunning Carletta!!

I feel the magic when I look at your shots..
A true pleasure to visit you!

Perfect, I'm mad about your moon's.
I have to practice more, a lot more.

Quilt Works said...

The first shot is spectacular! What were your settings? Can you share with us? It is so hard to get good shots of the moon.

Naturegirl said...

Carletta, both great images. The moon of the first one is splendid and the lighted moon of the second is so attractive!

beautfiul moon, but my colleagues (in school) some of them anyway, are weary of this full moon. They think the kids behave weird.
