| Blue Moon Aug. 2012 |
So the last entry I posted a shot from the morning after I had been chasing the Blue Moon of this past August. So now I will post a shot from the moon rising on August 31, 2011 as I sat out on a county road here in Polk County, Oregon. It is a place about 7 miles of road driving to get to it and occasionally I go by it when doing some climbs in the Eola Hills near to my house. Sorry, the moon is not crystal clear as I was trying to bring a lot into the shot and was getting darker, and darker with the setting sun. Still fun times working on the shot.
Anyway, the frontage area is a Christmas tree farm that is probably about 3 years post planting and then various woods with small farms mixed in them. In the mid distance you have some lights of part of the Salem and Keizer areas and then spreads East to more farmland before it climbs into the Cascade Mt. Range. During this time of year you get a good bit of low level haze from the last of the agricultural harvest.
So there! I actually got back to what I said I was going to do and post another shot of this moon!
Have a great week! Tim
