Photo 15: Moon
ISO: 200
Shutter Speed: 1/320
F-Stop: 10
Society typically associates the moon with night. It's the most illuminating thing in the sky during our darker hours. So when I spy it in the sky in the morning or dusk, it gives me some cognitive dissonance. "Why the hell am I seeing this right now?" Turns out, the moon has more influence over the tides than the night time. Anyhow, look at this photo! 

Ironically, I have the sun to thank for this almost overly-saturated photo. A cloudless day paved way for a pretty blinding sunset. Luckily for me, the backdrop I wanted faced the rays, rather than hid behind them. I'm a fan of the oranges and browns, as well as that completely dominate blue. Not a fan of the telephone wires and fences, but midtown, Detroit still holds my heart.

I'm finding myself more attracted to photos with such a dominating sky. Something that hangs over whatever landscape sits below makes everything look so small. It's my hope, that someday, we all get a better understanding of how small we really are. That narcissism seems to dominate our views of the world too often. Just changing the world over here!

    Just being clear, The words make the money, the photos are just an ego boost.
