The Bird and the Moon

North Berwick

This bronze statue sits outside the Seabird Centre in town and was lit by the last light of the day.
During my evening walk I realised that by standing on a bench and holding the camera in the air, I could almost get the moon in the bird's beak.
Not quite. I could have done with a taller bench. And also a tripod to allow a smaller aperture to get the moon in focus.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

Marvellous scene, Bill, it looks a happy bird captures the full moon. BV
It is 29th here as the mid-autumn festival is on the 15th of the 8th lunar month.

This is simply delightful, Bill, even if not quite within reach. Well spotted and captured! V.

Good eye to see this, thank goodness the bird didn't eat the moon, where would the romance be without the moon!! V
