Swift moon

Swift moon.

I waited ages for the right moment this evening, my patience was rewarded.

To get this shot, I had to select the narrowest aperture I could (f29!), keep a high shutter speed & crank the ISO right up.

The Swifts flying over my head rarely went directly across the moon, which was much smaller than it looks here.

Passing villagers thought I was mad!
