Wed. Full Moon
Couldn't hold still for the long exposure but you get the idea. Go out and look.
Shows the sailboat lights infront of the hotel
Island light house on the right

I thought about trying to capture the full moon last night---it was beautiful, but it has been so cold and windy at night on this side that I opted
for enjoying the moon out the windows. You had some really nice colors with the moon on your side.
You do need a tripod----also, for a long exposure like this, if you, like me, do not have a remote shutter release, set the timer to reduce any
camera movement from pushing down the shutter release. Also, if I remember, I take off the IS and put the mirror up in the camera.

Yeh, yeh, yeh I'm LAZY and getting out the tripod is a pain. If I could even find it.
It's 65º here this morning and a little E. breeze.

At least you admit to being lazy---I only admitted to being too cold.
Chilly this morning, but not as cold as yesterday---we have no weather gauge so I judge the weather by how cold my feet are and if I need to wear
socks with my sandals.

Wind picked up early here also---cold and windy now. Need socks---
Maybe the weather will change before the next full moon so I won't have an excuse for being so lazy.
