Okay...I know...I know...the title of this blog post is a cheesy reference to a Christopher Cross song but I just had to do it (and of course tailor it to a New Jersey Girl).
I wasn't able to take the full moon yesterday because it was completley overcast...which was upsetting since it was amazing the night before the full moon and I didn't photograph that either. So I took it tonight (the day after the full moon). It still looked full to me!
Rather than the photo looking like all of my other moon shots I experimented with different shutter speeds to see how the moon might look best.
I used my Nikon 70-300 VR lens, put the camera on the tripod, used the manual setting, and manual focus. I also used my wireless remote shutter release to avoid camera shake.
