Darkside

Aperture: f/22.0
Focal Length: 800 mm <-- look mom no hands !!

Just playing around .. was a beautiful moon tonight and I thought I'd take a few shots of it, thanks to Roger Waters, David Gilmore and Pink Floyd for the lyrics ( I always seem to hum the songs when I look at the moon )

thanks for taking a look,

Vin

Beautiful piece altogether....and a wonderful shot of the moon......you really do have to have 800mm to do it any justice!

I so LOVE Pink Floyd......and everytime I listen to this album (yes, I said album, not CD, although I do have both, LOL), I will have this incredible photograph in my mind.

Well done, VERY well done, my friend. I'm more than a bit jealous!

Hugs,
Susan

And no one sings me lullabyes, and no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide and call to you across the sky....


One from the top drawer, excellent work Vin

Vin, The moonshot is awesome but the presentation of it is sensational. What a lovely and unique way to present one of your great images. Great words too.
All I can say buddy is WOW.

Dave.

Wow! Great shot of the moon and Pink Floyd is the perfect accompanyment. Not only do I have the vinyl version, I spent the extra bucks for the Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab version done from the original master tapes. There's nothing better than vintage Pink Floyd.
