Waxing Gibbous Moon


A little clearer than the Waning Gibbous Moon shot from August. This moon announces the end of Summer 2007.

This photograph is a powerful representation of the waxing moon. The moon itself is a source of light reflecting the sunand in this concept the use of only lighting the moon is well placed. Also this is enhanced by the compsitional element of placing the moon central in the image. It is a successful portrayal by use of digital manipulation with a simple purpose that is conveyed to the point. The intention is simply to show the moon.

Thank you for your comments. I should mention that the digital manipulation of this image, beyond whatever processing occurred in the camera itself, is limited to a little bit of noise reduction and sharpening, cropping the image square, and adding the copyright notice.

Great shot - I'm "borrowing" it (with full credit to you) for a PowerPoint presentation to be given to a Cub Scout troop at Powell Observatory next Friday night.
