“滿月 Full Moon” / 香港夜之寧 Hong Kong Night Serenity / SML.20130524.7D.42095.C23.BW

When I was at the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade photographing the Victoria Harbour yesterday, a gigantic celestial object appeared near the mountains. At first I thought that it was the sunset, but it appeared in the east. It is of course the full moon. A rather unexpected yet very welcoming sighting.

 

I photographed this handheld. The 100-400 was affixed on the 7D, which is fairly noisy (perhaps the 7D2 would fair better?) Technically full moon is tonight, but the moon could not be seen in Hong Kong’s cloudy sky. So I thought I would process this capture instead. It is eerie yet wonderfully magnificent.

 

The Art Basel 2013 photos will continue after this short break.
