Sturgeon Full Moonrise over Beach Huts
I managed to capture a really nice full moonrise over the beach huts at Lytham St Annes. I shot the image using a telescope from a distance of around 1/4 mile, which gives the effect of the moon looking much bigger in relation to the huts. If I had gone closer, it would look smaller, so I wanted to take the image from as far as I could to get this effect. This full moon is known as a sturgeon moon due to the fact that these fish tend to be easily caught around this time of year.
This image appeared in The Telegraph and The Sun newspapers
I made a video during the capture of this moonrise where I give out tips on planning & capturing the shot
