I was excited to hear that we were going to have both a “Super Moon<\/a>” and a Total\u00a0Lunar Eclipse<\/a>\u00a0yesterday evening (September 27, 2015). \u00a0The last one was in 1982 and the next occurrence in our region will not happen until 2033. I did a bunch of research and preparation work to get\u00a0ready for this historic and monumental event. Then, clouds moved in and ruined the photo opportunity. So, I struggled to find another moon image that was equally as impressive\u00a0and settled on this bug moon shot.<\/p>\n

I took this image while shooting landscapes and Texas Wildflowers<\/a> at\u00a0Pedernales Falls State Park<\/a> near Austin, TX earlier this year. \u00a0As I knelt to shoot this Silver Puff, I noticed this little Aphid<\/a> on top and tried to get a frontal view but he kept turning. So, I thought this was a good opportunity to shoot a bug mooning.<\/p>\n

Silver Puff – Pederenales Falls SP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This image was taken with my Canon EOS 5D Mark III<\/a> using my Canon EF 100mm f\/2.8L Macro\u00a0lens<\/a>. The camera was set on Manual mode with the aperture set at f\/5, shutter speed at 1\/125 and\u00a0ISO at 100. I lit the subject with my\u00a0Canon MT-24EX Macro Twin Lite Flash<\/a>. \u00a0All processing was done in Lightroom.<\/p>\n
