I had put away my primary camera and lenses for the day, and was walking back to our hotel from a nearby restaurant, when I noticed a half moon hanging in the evening sky over the nearly mountains. However I always keep a small camera in a pouch on my belt, and zooming it out to its maximum 60mm focal length, I was able to magnify the rising half moon large enough to have impact. The medium focal length also allows me to include two layers of horizontal mountains and three pinkish cloud layers. I increased the scale of the moon even more by cropping one-third off the left side of the frame, and one third off the top of the frame.
