'Twas the Night After Christmas Full Moon

When the Full Moon Finally Came Out

 

 

Tricky weather, had me thinking, we wouldn't see the full moon this month.

It's one of the reasons, I usually try to shoot it, the day before and after the event, as well.

At this stage of my life, friends and family, know I, don't need any fancy gifts.

They don't have to spend a lot of money Christmas shopping, for me

Flip-flops, booze and food are the simple things, I don't mind receiving as gifts.

So, that's what, I usually get and, I couldn't be happier.

Evening clouds and scattered rain kept the moon invisible, for the past few nights.

When I stepped out of the office around 8PM last night to buy some coffee, it showed up. 

So, I grabbed the tripod, cameras, lenses and, shot the evasive sucker !
