Full Moon Through NYC Window
It was a beautiful shot. I just couldn’t capture it adequately through the glass.
Heinz Stacks and Moon in the Clouds from Troy Hill Road
Left the Rehearsal Dinner at Penn Brewery to go across the street to my car. This is what I saw.
The scene was elusive in camera, not wanting to focus, but a spectacular view. I really enjoy night photography and need to make a point to get out more at night.

Full Moon Rising Over St. George Island by Guest Blogger Kristin
This evening I received this lovely photo on my phone.
It’s the full moon rising over St. George Island, FL from my friend Kristin.
She agreed to be guest blogger for today’s post. You might have seen her Orchid Cactus Bloom post or the Christmas Day Gators Post .
She sent another shot when it got darker but the mood of this one with the clothesline is my favorite.
Full Moon, Blimp and a Night Game at PNC Park
It was the Sunday night I returned from Columbus OH.
Mother’s Day evening.
The blue night sky asks to be photographed.
I enjoy taking photos of the city at night.
There’s the blimp

Phantom’s Revenge Riders Fly Towards the Full Moon
August first, just after sunset. West Mifflin, PA. Kennywood Amusement Park. Just driving by. Got out of the van and waited for the cars filled with riders to come into the frame.
First Jelly Roll I’ve Baked in Years and a Blooming Hellebore
Filled With Homemade Four Fruit Jam- Sour Cherries, Raspberries, Gooseberries and Currants
I brought the dessert.
Otherwise Known as a Lenten Rose
These bloom in the snow and are quite beautiful. Hellebore is a hell of a name, though. My friend is quite a gardener.

Feast of Saint Rocco, Fireworks and a Full Moon
Information about this celebration at St. Raphael’s in Morningside arrived in my inbox from the community list-serve. Said there would be fireworks. When I got there a band from Cleveland was playing Italian songs and couples were dancing. A large statue of Saint Rocco was illuminated and people would go up and kiss their hand and touch him. He is the protector of contagious disease and pestilence. There was a statue of a dog with a loaf of bread in his mouth right by his side and you can read his story here. At first I took a few timid photos with my phone as I felt conspicuous. But when the fireworks started I pulled out my regular camera and propped it against the chain link fence and caught the scene. The full moon looks less dramatic in the image than it felt in person. Used a 24-70 L series lens and the remote cable to reduce camera shake. The fireworks were fun and everyone thought they were over and then more would shoot up and an audible oooooh and aaaaah came from the crowd. A nice summer evening, it is 64 degrees right now! 
Almost Full Moon Over Roberto Clemente
Saturday March 19th will be the SUPER MOON. I shot this on the way home from class on Wednesday night. I was shooting the statue of Roberto Clemente and noticed the moon in the frame. Going to try and shoot the super moon Saturday night.
No Concrete Proof
The lights at night, the moon, the swollen river rushing below the bridge, the lifelike statue- created a presence.
Mt. Washington Tower and the Full Moon
On Shiloh Street there is a 350 foot tower. Here is a piece of it and the full moon from the impromptu Tuesday night shoot.
Just last year I was on the hunt for Inflatable Turkeys. To me this is much more dramatic.
Guess this will be the Thanksgiving post. Handheld, RB, no tripod. Propped camera on the side of a telephone pole.
Reminds me of a Cape Canaveral image.
Ghost Bicycles, Halloween House and a Full Moon
Steve drove me home from the Poetry Reading at Borders. Drove around the block so I could shoot the Halloween House and the FULL moon. Got out of the car and it wasn’t looking like much. Then the traffic started to arrive. And the lights of the passing cars added some interest. But when the 25 bicycles sped by with their lights on I shot as fast as I could. Not intending an animation initially but I thought it made the series worthy of publication.
