I am constantly on the look-out for a composition that will show-off the full moon as it rises above the eastern hills. The most compelling photos have a foreground subject that adds interest to the shot and gives it some context (otherwise the full moon will look pretty much the same each month). I took this photo while waiting for the moon to show itself. The colors in the sky were so pretty. I was looking forward to a beautiful moon rise photograph. I just needed the impending storm clouds to hold off for another 30 minutes or so.

As I waited, I turned my camera to the west.These two photos were taken within 10 minutes of each other.
Alas, the clouds thickened to the point that the moon was not visible until it was high in the sky, well above my lovely foreground tree. Such are the vagaries of the weather.
Even though I did not get the shot I was hoping for,I am not discouraged. The full moon will rise again next month.
beautiful, colorful skies aunt susan!!
