I don’t like full moon.
OK. I don’t like full moon in the autumn.
… especially when it’s raining outside and the moon is hiding behind dark clouds….
… and when I’m the only one grownup in the house!
And last night all THAT came together! I was home alone with Helmī, outside was raining, dark clouds covered the sky and moon were full! Scary!
I lit the candles to fight the demons inside my head :). Everything is fine now!

Sounds as though Latvians have similar superstitions to Romanians. I’m glad “everything is fine now”. You got some great photos though!

Thank you ! I finally took my DSLR camera… silly me! People need last iPhone to take better pictures, right?

Well I wouldn’t know; £1000 for the latest iPhone here is, for me, ridiculous. I have a very good digital camera (not DSLR) but cannot be bothered to use it except when photographing a gig or something. However, for the moon I’d have to use it. Now, for the blog, I just rely on the iPad – it’s good enough I think. I hate phones so mine is very, very old – at least 10 years. I think it takes photos but I’ve never tried. I carry it in case the car breaks down and, rarely, to txt with Petronela is we’re going to be late home or something like that.

Interesting! I bought DSLR to be an amature photographer… after a while we traveled to Germany and then I discovered that it’s easiest to share if thaken with phone 🙂 Good by camera… Hello phone! 😀 But I hope to deal with my household to get it back on track and then… use my camera again!

Well, as you know for my ‘amateur photography’ I prefer film. I bought a digital camera for work – I had to be able to send high resolution pictures to a newspaper quickly. As you say, for blogging, Facebook, messenger, etc, it’s much easier to use a phone/iPad etc and, of course, as they will only be viewed on screen then 72/96 dpi is enough. Of course a higher resolution allows you to crop drastically and still have a good picture so a long lens is less necessary. So now the majority of my blog pictures are on the iPad, unless they are taken for another purpose (or I want to make prints). However, recently I’ve gone in the opposite direction to you; you want to return to your ‘amateur photography, I’ve suddenly lost interest in it as such and now more or less take pictures only to illustrate the blog. I feel a blog post coming on about all this !

Yeah… the same here! But sometimes I want my picture to be Cristal clear, sharp and less noisy 🙂

👍 yes, noise in a big factor when the light isn’t good. But the iPad does surprisingly well. I guess a later one (or phone) would do better and my Fuji X-Pro1 does even though that’s pretty old now.

Beautiful images! I’m the opposite to you – I love the moon, especially the full moon, it’s so beautiful….

It’s beautiful! But my girls get so hyper on the full moon. And admin if you would live in the countryside (alone) near forest on a night with rain and wind… you’ll be scared too 😀
