Unable to stop
myself from stalking the moon,
I halt at each light,
roll down the window,
click away obsessively
till the light turns green
and then drive away.

The view is one of a tropical paradise. The fullness of the moon brightens the night sky noticeably, and the lush tree has its silhouette almost illuminated by the very bright lunar orb. The wast coast of Fla. offers such varied beauty, and it is great that you are there to chronicle it…

What a great shot. The moon stops me in my tracks every time too.

Tink, I think it was you I told about howling at the full moon and biting people, mostly girls, on the neck. I can’t help myself, it happens when my fangs come out.
I like your moon, I am jealous because my camera won’t take the moon just pointing out the window like that. Have you figured out what there is in the moon that attracts our attention?
Yes, I know there was sky in the fender, a pretty sky. And yes, that is my green Mustang II Ghia in both hubcap pictures. Thanks for your nice comment.

I have the same obsession with this beautiful ball of light! My trouble is that I cannot capture it as you have. This is a fabulous shot. Thank you so much for sharing. Thanks for playing along.

How funny, I hadn’t really thought about how we tuck our nature photos away on silicon chips.
Amusing.

Stunning! It’s been so rainy here in Atlanta that I really can’t wait to see the moon and sun again.

Now that is the type of moon picture that I strive to take and just can’t do for the life of me! I am so envious of those who can – and do – take shots like this!! Great capture!
The poem fits perfectly, too!
Have a great Friday, Tink!

Tink, my friend, this is a GREAT shot! The moon is gigantic, and I love how the tree ‘feathers’ against the sky. AWESOME!

WOW! That’s a beautiful moon shot!

Wow…great shot! I’m obsessed with the moon, myself, so I relate to you’re haiku, as well!
Thanks for sharin’, neighbor, and have a great weekend ahead!

Wow, what an impressive shot!

Lovely shot and wonderful composition. You captured the moon so well.

Great shot. I love the way the tree is reaching out to the moon. Very nice.

That’s a gorgeous shot. The moon looks huge, and the feathery pine needles enhance it.

Great shot of the moon.

Great shot! The moon is very mesmerizing! I love to stare at it along with the stars. It makes me look forward to summer!

Nice catch! I’ve tried too, but not that big moon I never got. Yes, SkyWatch puts to look up, that’s true. Those reflections I got (thanks for the visit!)noticed only because of that…

Tink, this is an extraordinary shot! And from your cell phone? Wow! God job!
Reply
Thank you everyone for your compliments. I want to clarify that this one is NOT from my cell phone – although it was “mobile” after a fashion – as the haiku indicates, I was in the car!
I took this shot with my Canon SX110is that I bought myself for Christmas. It is 9 megapixels and has 10X optical image stabilized zoom, which really helps to capture the craters and such on the moon’s surface. This is not the most optical zoom that Canon offers, but I thought it was a reasonable compromise for the price.
Here it is on Amazon – they have it in silver too, which for some reason is a little less expensive

But, did anybody honk and give you the finger?
Gorgeous, gorgeous shot!

Thanks for the info about the camera! I loved the shot!
I always forget to take pictures of the moon, I don’t know why, I haven’t got one!
Reply
I love that shot, and the moon. Glad to know I’m not the only one who takes pictures out the car window.

I can almost see ET flying across the moon in that shot.

Great photo. I never took one of the moon. I should try to get some of the moon, if my camera will allow it.
Very cool shot!
