We had missed October's awesome Harvest Moon, so I thought we'd better try to get November's full moon shot before winter set in and the moon rose smaller. It was very warm that night, and the boys and my youngest daughter wouldn't stay out of the sand. I finally gave in and allowed them to play. While I was taking pictures of the moon with the camera loaded with color film, I looked up from the viewfinder and saw this great shot. Took it with the black and white loaded camera. As precious as this shot is, it followed closely to a conversation that went something like this:
Mom, we can't keep Adrick out of the water!
Mom, Logan keeps taking his clothes off!
Are you almost done? Can we leave now!!
The van was a mess the next morning.

Like both shots, but especially love the bottom shot. Makes me want to go awwwwwww :) Love B&W images. Nice capture. Well done.
2 good moody shots, well done micki!
Beautiful shots. I love the shades in the top one, and the composition of the second is wonderful.
heheh - what a lovely family you have. perfect shots.
Sounds like alot of fun! Both shots look superb in b&w, however my fav. is the top one.
Micki, two wonderful shots. I know what it is like to try to meter in funny light, and you have done a super job here. Good work.
Ha ha. Sounds like a lot of commotion, but totally worth it! Lovely shots!
beautiful moon shot i like the clouds and color tone:-) nice mood...also as the bw shot:-)
I only have one and it amazes me the amount of whining sometimes! These are both lovely and in time you will probably forget the dialogue that went with it:).(Or maybe not).
what a great shot! a sweet silhouette of your fam;)
Micki, wouldn't this be awesome if these two shots were merged together? At first, I thought the two shots (both landcape orientation) were really one large vertical shot. It tricked me at first. Either way, I like both images very much.
Very nice, I thought it was one shot at first.
Nice shots, I like the second one more though, and especially the old look to it!
Donncha
I love the coloring on the bottom one. Very pretty.
Nice shots and the family group.
These shots work beautifully together. I love the compressed perspective and high-key tone of the family shot (Good use of Tmax there.. hehe) and the color of the moonrise is wonderfully subtle.
Beautiful pictures. I love the second one.. Potray's togetherness to me! Btw, thanks for your comment at my blog.
I always liked photos of the full moon, have something mystical in them, very beautiful photo :)
But the one I really love is the 2nd one, it made smile and smile, I think you can be the happiest person in the world in that moment, all your family happy kids together and playing :) :)
This is a lovely capture. You can just see the unity and love in the shot at the bottom.
Great shot of the moon, it's huge! I've never seen it that big before. Wonderful.
Great moon shot - I love to take photos of full moons! cheers :)
Great post, i just LOVE the second one!
Nice shot. I love the first one. Horizon slightly tilted on one side.
lol it is funny how I sometimes sterotype a moment to find out later I was totally wrong... good stuff.
Beautiful shot! Nice you posted both pictures together. Nice family picture! Must have been great to watch the moon together !
Lovely!
The coarse grains add a journalistic feel to the pictures. Must have been hard keeping an eye on the kids while keeping track of exposure time. :)
Great family shot. Nice one.
I like this ... what a great mood this foto shares. Excellent!
Tena koe ehoa
I have or rather had, the same kinda of shot with my 2 daughters running into the sea holding each others hand.
My bad file management skills at that time lead to that image being wrongly deleted from my PC never to be seen again.
Bummed out I was tempted to restage the image but didn't want to falsify the emotive situation with acting.
Your image has exactly the same feelings of comaraderie togetherness and strenght in unity that my never to be seen again image had..
