Full Moon


What a beautiful morning this is. I am very fortunate to be in such a warm climate at this time of the year!

Since last night's moon was full I woke up early to capture the moon setting. I had the scene I wanted to capture in my head so at 5:30am I took off walking. I soon discovered that the golf course gets a heavy dose of water this early in the morning and had to wait patiently for the sprinklers to turn off to continue my journey. I wanted to place 5 palm trees in the foreground of my scene with the moon setting on the water behind them. My next discovery was that the moon wasn't in the spot I hoped it would be and therefore I could get 5 palms without the moon or a couple trees with the moon. So I took several images of each. As I was taking these photos I noticed in the distance this large Buddha statue and decided to continue my walk in that direction.
So here is my final image, it isn't what I thought I would capture this morning but I like it just the same.
