Moon Over Hattie Hill
The full moon was shining bright. So bright actually that it caused a little lens flare! This image was taken handheld since I didn't have my tripod with me, but I had a railing to lean the camera on for stabilization.
With the moon in the sky, only the brightest stars are visible. You can just about make out the Orion constellation to the lower right of the moon. Above the moon, you can see Taurus, and Gemini to the lower left of the moon. I'm not an astronomer, so don't quote me on the names of the stars, but I did my best trying to identify them. The big bright overexposed blob is the moon, of course. ;-)
