Lenten Moon II – Good Friday
Posted by Ron (Saint Louis, United States) on 22 March 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.
This shot was taken just as the moon rose up above the horizon, and as the sun was setting in the west.

Absolutely gorgeous Ron. One of the best moon shots I've seen.

What a super shot this is. I love how that one branch frames the right side of the moon.
Your shot reminded me of one I took in 2006; you can see it here.

Ron - these are very unusual tones for this type of shot. You have a superb eye for seeing things differently - well done.

Bonjour,
En suivant la lune d'hier, je suis tombée sur celle-ci, tout aussi belle que sa soeur, elle m'a donné envie de vous écrire :
Chaque soir, de mon lit
drapé de rimes inachevées,
j’aperçois mon amie la lune.
Je brûle d’impatience
de lui livrer les vers
qui sont venus habiller
tous les instants de ma journée.
Cachée dans le corps
de la forêt, elle me regarde
et son âme déchirée
par les branches déshabillées
vient me réchauffer
les petits doigts marqués
par l’encre de mes mots.
Et toujours plus charmées,
oubliant de nous coucher,
nous nous mîmes à bavarder.
Bien à vous et joyeuses fêtes de Pâques, amicalement, Mary.

Absolutely captivating image. I love the color and clarity. It’s both peaceful and spooky. Yes, it defiantly tells two stories. Great image!
