Moon - Waning Gibbous
Moon - Waning Gibbous 5th Dec 2009 - South Africa, Southern Hemisphere
The moon was 84% of full last night, and waning, peeking through the rain clouds after a lovely downpour. I decided to try and sketch it, but substituted half of the black tree-lined foreground with water, as it appeared very black. This was my first attempt at sketching at night and quite a new experience for me! And I certainly need to do a lot more of this to get the correct atmosphere. Any suggestions anybody?

Lovely, Maree. Makes me wish for warmer weather so I can give this a try. (Guess I better toughen up--our winter hasn't even started1)
