Moon Machine

As I came out of dinner with my parents, I noticed the sun had set, the Moon was out and there was some nice orange light in the sky. I thought "too bad I missed this." But as luck would have it as we pulled out of the parking lot, I noticed these gravel/grain silos right across the street. So I pulled over, rolled down the window and tried to steady my camera against the door in the howling wind (man was it really whipping). It is a bit soft but what do you expect in gale force winds. I took a number of bracketed shots in the hopes of doing some HDRI work, but I really liked how some came out even without it.

Sunset Geese Redux

Here is a cropped version of yesterday's post. Here I was looking for images with an image and think this works well. I am not sure which I like more, but it is interesting to find other images within an image that you were not expecting.

Sunset Geese

Today's and tomorrow's images are going to be a study in looking closely at your images. Often you will find images within images that with judicious cropping can offer different takes on the subject. Today is an image of geese caught in the setting sun. When going through this image, I felt that there was a second, potentially more powerful, image within this one. I will post that tomorrow and am interested in seeing what you think is the stronger image.
