Crescent moonset

[Jim Bryant]

Just wanted to let everyone know that I've been busier than a barefooted boy stomping ants. While on my way home from shooting the West District 2 Big League (16-19 year olds) Championship baseball game in Silverdale I happened to crest a hill and lo and behold I saw the crescent moonset over the Olympic Mountains. Didn't take too much effort for me to think twice about stopping in a parking lot, pull out the tripod, attach a shutter release to one of my MK II's and with the 300mm f2.8 lens and capture this beautiful moment. Granted, it's been a long week covering 20 baseball games in six days, but I believe the end result was worthwhile. So...enjoy the photo.

Today I shot a Mariners baseball game, Cleveland Indians stomped them 10-3 and will have another day game to shoot tomorrow. Then come Monday, it's back to covering the West District 2 Little League Washington State All Star baseball games for a week. Gotta love baseball

Nice shot Jim. I got to spend 1 day running around out on the Olympic Pen. Went out to Neah Bay and walked the trail to the point. Absolutely beautiful.

There's nothing wrong about the beauty of a sunset and moonset photo.

Great picture, Jim. Love the colours and the sillouette of the mountains really makes the moon stand out.

20 games in six days??? You must be ready for a vacation... don't forget to take your camera.

Very nice shot jim. No one should ever be so busy as to not take the time to enjoy a beautiful view like this. Thanks for posting.


NOW, BACK TO WORK!!!
