Red Moon

On Friday we took a long-awaited trip up to Buckinghamshire to spend the afternoon and early evening photographing Little Owls. It was a very rewarding trip with plenty of sightings and the occasional lull in proceedings during which we could satisfy our thirst and hunger pangs. The weather was set fair too, so we had an enjoyable time. More about that when we have had time to go through the images we produced.

The journey back was uneventful, but as we crossed the Ridgeway into Weymouth we were greeted by  a deep orange moon to the South East. It was a real opportunity, but tiredness had set in and we let the moment pass. However, yesterday was a similar day to Friday, so we headed over to Bincombe to await the moon rise. We weren't disappointed and made the image above.
