Dusty full moon rising

[Garyh]

Hi folks,
Here is a shot done tonight of the full moon just after sunset. skies were really dusty from all that wind stirring things up.. so I thought it should make a nice moonrise shot. Hard to find a clean easterly horizon here so this is the best I could get quickly. Taken with Televue Genesis and Canon 20D, 1/80 second at iso 200. (slightly cropped) for posting.
cheers and CS.

Very nice shot Gary, nicely framed too.

Reminds me of those bushfire evenings.

Thanks Mike and Andrew! Yeah I love watching the full moon come up but after that someone should throw a big black cloth over that thing!
Yes it does have that bushfire smoke look to it, I think we might be in for a bad fire season this summer.
Have to find that spot where I can catch it flat on the horizon next time, was around 2 degrees above here...
cheers Gary
