By the light of the moon

Last night I was lucky enough to get this shot of the moon. We purchased a new digital camera not to long ago and I have to say that it is impressive. Some of the pictures that I have been able to shoot I would never have even attempted with my old one. Nature is a passion of mine. My family and I hike the local parks and trails as often as we can. But some of the prettiest sights have been right in my back yard which is where this picture was taken. I love to take photos of places that I have been knowing that no one will ever have a shot exactly like mine for nature is ever changing. The seasons, the lighting, the weather is always changing. I guess the same is true with people too. I like to use the pictures in decorating my home. It is like taking a piece of our adventure back with us. Freezing a moment in time.
