Sunlight is a brand of household soap originally produced by the British company Lever Brothers in 1884. It was the world's first packaged, branded laundry soap. Designed for washing clothes and general household use, the success of the product led to the name for the company's village for its workers, Port Sunlight. The soap formula was invented by a Bolton chemist named William Hough Watson, who also became an early business partner. Watson's process created a new soap, using glycerin and vegetable oils such as palm oil rather than tallow (animal fats). William Lever and his brother James Darcy Lever invested in Watson's soap invention and its initial success came from offering bars of cut, wrapped, and branded soap in his father's grocery shop. Prior to this, commercially made soap was bought in long bars, an early labour-saving device for the housewife.

A beautiful eveing gave way to wonderfully clear and steady night skies, perfect for observing the Waxing Gibbous Moon, and taking it's photo.
What's nice is unlike living models, there's no arguing about poses, and you don't even need a model release. Yep, no problems or backtalk from ol' Luna.
Moon Data at time of exposure:
Phase: Waxing Gibbous (9.34 days)
Distance from Observer (me): 248708 miles (400258km)
Altitude above horizon: 33.36 degrees
Location in sky (Constellation): Aquarius
Sunlight breaking through the tree canopy at lower Sgwd Ddwli on the Nedd Fechan river near Ystradfellte South Wales. A lovely spot to just sit, as I did on my backside due to the wet slippery bedrock.
I looked like an horizontal bear scratching my back on the slippery river bed rocks. Tripod with camera affixed in my left hand and rucksack in my left hand, both in the air. .
Thankfully the only chuckle I heard was from the birds in the trees.
It's such a job to get reasonable photos of Nelson because often he's in such shadow that his nose disappears or he's on a dark background and all you can make out is his eyes! Finally, over the last few days, I've been able to get a few shots of him in this lovely early evening light which shows him off a bit better.
