Sometimes the best photos of the moon aren’t those where the moon is fully visible – a silhouetted roof blocking half the rising moon can work wonders for an unusual shot.

It wasn’t a Lunar Eclipse, but the moon had a really red glow to it as it rose over the horizon this evening.

I had to nudge the exposure settings down a lot to get the detail of the moon’s surface to show up.

The sky was a really deep pinky red, and the moon seemed a complete contrast, glowing so brightly.
