The recent full moon has kept me busy. I actually took the time this month to go out and do some night photography and I was extremely pleased with the results.

My wife, some friends, and I hiked to the Lighthouse in Palo Duro Canyon so I could get some shots of it in the moonlight. The lighthouse has been photographed to death over the years, but I’ve never seen a night shot of it, so I set out to make a few. I was very pleased with the results. Here are a couple of the shots:

For the lights, I opened the shutter and then we all walked around with our headlamps and flashlights blazing and swirling.
