Full moons tonight


I didn't think it was possible to make a double exposure on a digital camera, but obviously it is.

Another note to self: I really MUST clean that lens and I must NOT trust the image stabiliser, even if I do lean against the house in low light.

  1. How do you do that? full moon also here. I was with my grandchildren at the beach tonight and they showed no interest.

    1. Not by trying. I like the idea that it is always the same moon, no matter where you are. Children seem to take the moon for granted, like birds and animals take rain, but who knows what they are really thinking?

  2. I did that! Thought it was the double glazing.

    1. Well we don't have double glazing, so I am blaming the camera.

  3. Fantastic sky and moon out here at this moment but I cannot do it justice on my phone. Your photo has interesting points of colour without the moons as much as with.

    1. The red ones on the skyline are the lights on a couple of cranes at the university. When not traced in circles whilst waiting for a long exposure, they make a good combination.

  4. I always knew that Bath was very special... as your photo has now proved it has twin moons.

    1. Actually, this was just a camera - supposedly dedicated to taking good photos.

    1. I usually just leave the camera on the last setting I used it, but with this I kept changing the settings to try and take a better picture. I never saw a setting for double-exposure though.

  7. Yeah, clean that lens. I am still trying to figure out why you thought that there was a disabled pirate on the street below.

    1. Look at his head gear and general appearance.

    1. Clear skies all over the place last night, I think.

  9. I wish I could figure out how to put a photo in the comments. Sometimes a photograph seems the best response. Your moons are beautiful.

    1. Google does not allow photos in blog replies.

      My moons are beautiful? Then so are yours.

  10. It looks like a view from earth in an alternative universe.

    1. Yes. Shame Sci-Fi writers are so despised by Booker Prize judges.
