A couple more shots from yesterday evenings walk along the levy with my camera. Both photos were taken from the same spot. The one below is, of course, using the zoom feature of my new camera. The zoom is amazing and the photo is using only 1/3 to 1/2 of the zoom capability. I learned that too much zoom without a tripod (or some other way to stabilize the camera) yields a slightly blurry image. Moon rise tonight is scheduled to be 4:45 pm. I hope to capture the moon over the mountains closer to sunset when the mountains turn pink and purple.
A few shots of the full moon rising over Mt. Blanca last night. I can't decide which I like better out of the last two shots. Which one do you like better? These photos were taken from the little wildlife viewing area off State Street, across from the golf course. The new rock memorial thing makes a great camera stand if you don't have a tripod.
