Moon, Sycamore & Barn
Posted by Anita (West Nottingham, United States) on 26 December 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
The rising sun shines on a Sycamore tree and barn as the moon sets over the Rohrer farm. This lovely Sycamore has been preserved in one of the farm fields
*****THANK YOU FOR VISITING ANITA'S PHOTOBLOG!*****
I welcome your honest critique, especially if they will improve my photography.
If I have made a mistake in a flower identification, please let me know!
A few words about the EXIF data, beginning in April when I began using Nikon D300 and the Sigma 105mm macro: My new camera and macro lens record the relative or effective f stop, not the one seen on the lens. For an explanation of this, go to the next to the last question at this site.

Laurie speaks my mind. This photo powerfully caused me to marvel how very differently ever object in it is reflecting back light from the same source -- the "rising" sun.

Stunning framing using the tree, it's drooping branches work perfect.

@Dang: Thanks!
@Earnest: Thank you. Interesting that an Oklahoma morning and a Pennsylvania morning can look similar.
@kamyar: Thanks!
@Kerri: Thank you.
@Simon Brauer: Many thanks!

Great photo! I love how the moon is framed by the branches. It would be cool to see a cropped version of the photo with only the moon showing and the branches framing it around the edges of the photo.

This is also delightful and dramatic. You have seen a good picture -- the first step in photography! -- and then matched it with the technical skill to pull it off. Without the tree, the picture would be a cliche, but with it, it becomes something so much more interesting. Thanks for sharing.
