G'day all,
In preparation for the 26th June partial lunar eclipse I went around Perth a few days earlier taking photographs at various locations to make sure I picked the best spot for the eclipse. This was a very close second for my preferred location (eclipse would have arced up from the horizon nicely over the Jetty).
Anyhow, from the trip I ended up with some nice shots even though the eclispe wasn't occuring at the time. I really liked several at the time but am now mellowing over them, and a little unsure.
This isprobably my top pick out of the jetty shots I took, but I'm not sure I'd say its a great shot, but I'm not sure why :shrug: Perhaps it's as simple that the moon and jetty are conflicting for attention of the eye? Or perhaps it's that there are pinpoint stars through the fast moving clouds? :shrug:
Anyway, it is still reasonably ok so I've poste it:)
Roger.
