Harvest Moon

Harvest Moon

On Saturday Morning I headed to West Beach here in New Bedford, as it was a cloudless morning and a full Moon so I wanted to try and catch some shots of it I go to the beach maybe an hour or so before the moon would have set and dropped below the horizon, Initially the moon was the normal whitish color we mostly see.

Now I will preface these shots saying there not as clear and crisp as I would have hoped for dure to a couple of reasons, one I think is I had switched a setting on my big lenses at some stage without realizing it, and that could well be the issue

and secondly, although I am pacing myself to try and ease the numbness in my fingers, Wednesday through Friday I am generally busy catching up with the Wednesday Walk posts and by Saturday the Numbness is fairly bad and I then take a few days not being online much, and these shots were taken on Saturday and most of these shots I was trying handheld with my left hand which has the numbness taking the weight of the lens so that may well be another factor.

But anyway enough waffling and onto the photos

This Full Moon which closest to the September equinox is called the Harvest Moon whihc is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox and September is usually the month associated with the harvest moon.

This full moon is also called the barley moon, the corn moon, the mid-autumn and mooncake.

The barley moon comes from the harvesting and threshing of barley. The harvest moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox.

Another European name is the fruit moon, as a number of fruits ripen at the end of the summer.

At moon rise, the moon is often reddened by clouds and dust in our atmosphere, and I think it was enhanced on Saturday morning as the Moon was setting as the sun was rising and it ended up being quite red in appearance

Not quiet yet in the next shot but you will see it get redder later in the post

Cool shots, JJ 👍 the red colour is amazing.
I have also thought of getting out and shoot the full moon once again after quite some time, but I've been too lazy 😅

Thanks My friend

I hope allis well with you and your family

All my pleasure, JJ 😊
We are all fine, there's just a lot to do at work and at home, so I haven't been much online.
At the moment I am converting a VW Caddy into something like a camper van and there's still a lot to do, but hopefully next week or so I will be able to take some days off and make a first trip with it 😁


!invest_vote

WOW that’s awesome something I wanted to do at one stage
Makes sure you have space in it gir your camera gear lol

I have wanted such a thing for a long time and after selling my bike and powering down some Hive I could afford an old Caddy (the prices have increased at 50% in the past years). I keep it simple inside - there's not enough space for a second person but for all my camera gear 😁 !LOLZ

Great shots of the harvest moon! Harvest moon always takes me to the old Neil Young song

Thanks and a great song ;)

I love your post so much! I love the moon and you took photos very well

Thanks It was nice to see it most full moons this year have bene hidden by clouds

I see. But yeah, some fullmoons in our place are cloudy and rainy too.

Yours is so far the best that I have seen.

Thanks truly appreciate you saying that

Thanks so much so kind of you

My pleasure sir, I'm fan of your photography 🥰💖💝

Thanks again

My pleasure always 😇

Wow, you captured that amazing moon so beautifully, @tattoodjay. It is breathtaking! I have never had the right equipment for those kinds of shits so I’m always amazed by them.

Thanks moon shots are tricky but when there is no clouds I give it a shot

Awesome shot's.

I've saw this moon as well but ain't had a Good enough camera to Zoom in and capture it.

Though last night I captured this one

Ain't able to Zoom More though pixels are like already so bad in this. Ah, well the moon was looking so beautiful!

Loved your Moon shots.

Thanks
Always nice to see a full moon

It's really fantastic to watch the beauty of the harvest moon so through your photography. The moon is a beautiful and mysterious place, and these pictures capture its magic perfectly. :)

Thanks kindly
Have a great day

Thanks was nice to see it with no clouds in the way

OMG the moon is clearly visible. Does it use tele?

Thanks
I was using my biggest lens so about. a 600mm zoom

So sorry to hear the numbness is still there and gets worse after you being more active here.
Do take enough breaks 🤓
Getting moon shots handheld is just tough… you can’t get it sharp.
But still your photographs are so beautiful considering all and a wrong setting.
Love the colour and details.
Thanks for sharing @tattoodjay

Thanks
I will keep trying one day I will get shots of a full moon with a nice backdrop

Have a great day

You are welcome.
Hope you can @tattoodjay 😊😎
I love moon captures. They are special especially when it’s a full moon.

Thanks a lot, enjoy yours!

This is so nice!

Wow, that is pretty awesome. I love how you can see the craters on the moon in such detail from that far away. It is pretty sweet. That's quite a deep red it turned! Awesome shots!

Thanks I wasn’t so happy with the clarity but I guess there not to bad

Wow what a great capturing from a boss. The result of a best shot are seen in the picture taken and this is one of its kind n great shot

Thanks that is so kind of you to say

You are much welcome

Awesome shots! The Harvest moon in all it's wonder!! 🧡

Thanks it was nice to see

You captured it so brilliantly!! I am sorry to hear about your sruggles with circulation/ nerves in your hands. Please take good care. I hope it will heal fast. ❤️❤️

Thanks I wasnt happy with them but people seemed to like them so maybe I was being hard on myself

Beauty photography of the moon sir

Thanks so much

Have a great day

Very beautiful shots my friend!

Wow.. incredible photography as always.

Thanks so much
Would have loved to have got it crisper

Looks pretty crisp compared to my iPhone XR

Lol true but could be better

Very clear photos from your lens, so beautiful and perfect full moon you mean it.

Thanks kindly

Wow! That fullvred moon was pretty incredible. No matter how experienced, I think moon shots are a challenge. Add on a heavy lens, carpel tunnel and hello!! I'm even more impressed.

I think showing it off in stages shows just how much change it really goes through. I love the red, but the really cool shot for me is how i can almost map out its surface!

Love!

Thanks so kind of you I guess there really not to bad but I know I can do better

Looks amazing, great shots👍 the colors of the moon are breathtaking

Thanks so much
have a good day
