Full Moon Over Camelback Mountain

 

These photos won't win any prizes but I was enjoying the full moon hanging above Camelback Mountain as I was driving to my friend's house.  I snapped a couple of shots out the windshield of the car as I was stopped at the traffic lights.

As I got closer to my friend's house, the perspective almost looked like the moon was setting behind the mountain but it wasn't.  It was on its way up in the eastern sky.


When I got to her house, I tried taking one from her back garden but I had this tree to contend with so I framed the moon between the tree limbs.



After all of that, my friend Dave got the best shot.  He had a much better view when he snapped this one.

You did well getting these shots, Sharon. I never seem to have much luck getting pics of the moon.

I took a few moon shots at a beach a few days ago when the moon looked really big. Yet to look at them, but if they are any good I will most likely post them.

I kind of like your top "urban" moon shot. I've always liked the Sinclair dinosaur mascot.

I like the moon shot framed between the trees.

I like those top 2 photos, the light is amazing on the scenery.
