I took this photo right after taking the photo I posted last time of the skyline of Boston. As I was getting ready to leave the rooftop location where I took that photo I saw the full moon barely visible in the afternoon brightness just coming into view above these factories. I decided to convert the photo to black and white becuase it was really hard to see the barely visible moon against the bright blue sky in the color version.
wow, cool moon capture
That’s a cracking shot, Andy. Terrific composition, and perfect in mono. The moon is the icing on the cake.
I like this cityscape very much. The moon coming into view is a fine addition. I like the conversion to make it show more prominently. Well done.
Nice choice of b&w. It feels like twilight
that’s a really big moon.. nice decision to show it in mono.. nice shot..
That is cool. What were your settings? Did you use a tripod?
Wonderful image. I have always wanted to grab a picture like this but I can never think fast enough to get the settings correct.
reat…
I wanted to write: great… Sorry :))))
i agree with Bea, ‘reat..’ hehe… no no, it’s a fabulous shot, i like how black the blacks are and such
Cool shot and good you got this image before you turned all hairy and starting howling.
It reminds me of an old photograph of a city in England.
A very moody shot. That one structure looks like an old steam ship.
Wonderful job, Andy! Love this in b&w - perfect!
The contrast is really good. The little tilt (unintentional?) adds a touch of dynamism .
Does give an old film photo feel slightly..
You are right, it is quite difficult to photograph the visible moon in daylight i.e. just the way the naked eye sees it.
Love it even more in b&w. Gives it such a timeless quality…a wonderful mood!
It was a good choice to go with black and white. The moon looks like it appeared really large at that hour.
i love the skyline and the black and the white buildings with the moon in between!
Fantastic image. I agree this shot in B & W is amazing.
