CHASING FULL MOONRISES

On Tuesday, August 4th, I was on my way home from Agility Class (dog, that is -- I am no longer agile), and the full moon was rising orange in the sky -- almost looked like an October moon. It was getting dark, and I had the good fortune to have my camera in the car with my 70 to 300m zoom lens on. I pulled over, and proceeded to take a number of shots, all on different camera settings. I also took some with my camera steadied on the rear view mirror . Here is my best shot with true color -- like the sunset, this moonrise photo is unretouched. Remember, if you want to see the larger image, you can click on the photograph.
