Thanks so much Awcart. The moon was amazing that night.
Your work is so beautiful- it brings me to tears!! So glad I found your gorgeous blog. Can’t wait to see more. xx
Hi WP, How nice! Thank you for your warm compliment and I appreciate your visit!
Great photos!
Thanks very much, Suzy.
I wont add anything new coz numbers of likes and comments itself speaks that how much its been appreciated. Your photography has put smile on my face.Simply beautiful.
Hi Shreyovi, You’ve made my morning brighter. Thank you for your kind comment and I’m happy you enjoyed my photos!
Spellbound photographies…….😮😮😮😮
I love finding the light and these moments were definitely magical for me. Thanks, Eliza!
Jane, this series of shots is just breath taking…its late at night here, but I want to grab my camera and go out NOW to shoot. Inspiring and beautiful.
Hi Patricia, So happy you are inspired! Thanks so much and thank you, Super Moon. A thrill for this post to make the Discover pick…great fun. So nice to hear from you. 🙂
The light is the panacea serendipity of every soul in life
Those that watch the finished work are the people enjoying the it. The producers suffer a lot.
Well said, Chukwu. With inspiration comes perspiration. Thank you for your great comment.
Thanks. When preparation meets with opportunity, breakthrough must occur. Writers are the most hard working people on earth. They think about others and how to build the society.
Amazing photos
Thanks very much, Itzabell9.
Super gorgeous shots Jane and well done on the WP gong!
Thank you, Patti, for your kind words. The nod from WP was a thrill and honor!
It is like a miracle to have the super moon behind the golden gate bridge! So exciting! 🙂
Hi Robin– It was truly amazing. This evening, it is rising behind the Bay Bridge which now has a permanent light installation on it which really enhances the photos. It was very cool. Thank you! 😃
The permanent light installation is serendipitous for your lighting but the talent still lies in your artistic eye. 🙂 The Bay Bridge is what I should have called it! I have 3 little grandies over which means only half of the details of the bridge’s location and other things “sank in.”
I can completely relate! And thank you for your terrific encouragement in my work. Much appreciated.
Spectacular. I do not know what to say ❤
Hi Kiriksiirler- You said it! And I am very appreciative. Thank you.
Beautiful photos
Hi Mia, Thank you! Appreciate your visit.

Your image of the moon moves me. I am a bit obsessed with the moon myself and it’s a constant theme in a lot of my writing. You have captured such beautiful moments in time.
Hi MoonlightPoetic, I can see that this is perfect for you….and I am so glad you found these inspiring. Thank you so much.

It was an amazing night, Jupitermagic. Thank you!
If this picture shows us the beauty of the scene this clear, then to be there in person had to be jaw dropping. .It seems as if the moon was showing off for you. This photo took my breath away… Thank you for sharing
Hello SW, My hope is to convey as closely as possible, the scene that I am feeling and seeing. To me, that’s a successful image. I’m so glad you felt the emotion I did making these. Thanks so much for letting me know.
Stunning photos. Today we don’t even need light to be able to photograph – almost that is. Congratulations with another WordPress Discover.
Thanks so much, Otto. It’s been a very exciting week. Your posts on artistic creativity and help in technical issues has been most helpful and appreciated.
Wow lovely post. Do you can say me where you shoot Super Moon.
Thanks. From Pier 7 at the Embarcadero.

Super pretty pictures of the moon behind the Bay Bridge. San Francisco is such a mysterious and beautiful city. Great to see it captured so lovingly.
Thanks so much, sdeodan33, San Francisco is enchanting and we were lucky to have such a clear evening for this incredible moonrise. Glad you enjoyed!
Love the picture of the moon. Staring at the moon will never get boring. Just imagining how far away it is and the fact we can still see it is so fascinating. Great picture! X
Hi Joan, Thank you. I agree, it is mesmerizing…and there were many others standing on the pier with me entranced by the rising moon. What a great evening!
I’m glad you took this picture. Unfortunately my country was completely covered in clouds and I had to miss it. Thanks for capturing this moment!
Happy you enjoyed it, Joan!
Beautiful photography! Stunning
Thanks so much, Greeksalad! I really appreciate it.
Love the moon!
Thank you, 6allen9, It was an amazing evening!

Thank you, buseettz. Appreciate it!
Hello Jane, awesome photography.
But I there any way to download hd photograph of supermoon , actually we need to exhibit it in science Congress. (With due regards & no copyright violations)
Hi HG, If you’d like to use my contact form we can figure it out. Thank you for your interest!
Sure we can have a look.
Have a nice day.
All of them are beautiful but that moon is just magnificent.
Thank you, Kristina. That was a special night. Glad you like them.
Great Post!
Thanks so much, Chic! Much appreciated.
This reminds me of the wonderful artist Turner and his absolute love affair with light. I would recommend the movie “Turner” as a good introduction to the painter.
Hi Don, Now that’s a wonderful compliment, thank you! Yes, I have seen the movie and recently a terrific Turner retrospective at the DeYoung in SF. He was a master of light. I appreciate your thoughtful comment.
I think its very creative
I appreciate it, wildpenny. Thanks so much.
Any suggestions on how I can get pics like that ?
I can tell you what I did- I use a DSLR with a long lens and for a night shot, a tripod is a must. Also, a lot of trial and error! 🙂
Ok thx
Such stunning images!
Thanks very much, Bea. Glad you enjoyed this series.
Stunning shots. Great work!
Thanks so much, Kindle Commute. Happy you enjoyed.
No problem!
Nice picture

Beautifully taken!!
Thank you very much, Silentwhale!
God said He made light on the first day, and that it was ‘good’. It took me few years to realize that it’s more than ‘just good’. It’s marvellous and stunning. I too, collect light images and I really appreciate your eye for light. I will look forward to seeing more.
Thank you for your kind words, Deeptweet. Much appreciated.
Beautiful:)

Thanks very much, Longview. Autumn is a beautiful time there! Hope you enjoy the others.
Beautiful! Great eye to capture the moon and it’s grandeur (Super moon!) thank you for sharing an awesome serene moment in time.
Thank you, Natural42. It was quite awesome, indeed, and I felt fortunate to have our beautiful bridge as its frame. 🙂
That bridge, the moon and those leafs. Great job done, nice snaps! 🙂
Thank you so much, Roy. It’s been a great couple of months. 🙂
So exciting photography :O

Thank you, Christina. And with the Bay Lights (an art installation on the bridge) it was amazing.
Stunning aperture and colors!! Your gray scale gradient is beautiful as well
Thanks very much iridescent dreams! Much appreciated.
What creative super moon shots! And I love the love you have put into those single leaves.
Hi Bunty, Thank you! It was quite an evening. Glad you like the leaves– I can’t resist backlit leaves. 🙂
Cool shot of the moon. I never tire looking at it.
Thanks very much, Lisa. There were many mesmerized people there with me. 🙂
Ha! We were memorized by our own. Made the lake grey.

Thank you very much, Prinxy.
I have just been blinded by all this beauty . Truely amazing and wonderful . ❤
I’m so glad you enjoyed these, Wysdom. Thank you very much.
Ooh! You caught the super-moon! Luckily I saw it rise but did not have a camera handy. Loving the way you captured the autumnal vine leaf as well. These shots truly capture the season where you live.
Thanks so much, Atreyee. I was lucky, indeed. Had low expectations which can be good sometimes. 🙂 Glad you like the autumn scenes.
Another top notch series!
Thanks so much, Herbert!
Beautiful captures, Jane! The moon looks haunting. 🙂
Thank you, Cheryl. It was quite amazing!
Magical photos indeed, Jane. Your. MoonI photo is superb!!
Much appreciated, Imelda. What a fruitful and fun night that was!
All wonderful, Jane. the moon of course…and that Sonoma sombre. Wonderful magic.
Thanks so much, Ann-Christine. Very happy these shots caught your eye.
All your shots does that, Jane!
Gorgeous photos, as always, Jane and the first one is a show-stopper.
Ω
Thank you, Allan. What fun on Pier 7 with the lunar fanatics. 🙂 Great month of shooting.
Totally magical – and although the moon looks fab my favourite is the vine leaf. Such lovely light and colour there.
Hi Jude, Thank you — the leaf was a sweet morning moment. Nature’s gifts. Happy you enjoyed these.
Just beautiful, Jane, especially the photographs of the moon.
Hi Lisa, That moon. It was an awesome SF moment. Thanks very much.
Yes it’s all about catching the light…beautiful ones and I love the moon ~ smiles for a happy day Hedy ☺️
Hedy, Yes, indeed. Happy you like these…some magical moments. Thank you and I hope you are doing well.
Thanks kindly Jane ☺️
I should be allowed to like each photos in WordPress :). I love ALL of them. Fantastic!!!
You are so kind, Sunnydays! Thank you so much! I’ve really been loving shooting in the past month.
Hi, Jane. This is wonderful light “magic.” Gorgeous shots! I especially love the super moon shot.
Hi Patti, Thank you! SF has been pretty magical the past few weeks- happy you enjoyed them. 🙂
It’s all about the light and what we do with it…
Absolutely, Robert. All about where you stand… happy you enjoyed. Thank you.
What a lovely cross section photos reflecting the magic of light… yet another of your favorite bridge!!
Hi Linda, Thank you! Yes, indeed…they were showing off quite nicely. 🙂
Stunning, every one of those shots. You were lucky to get the moon…here in Devon, UK we didn’t.
Hi Paula, Sorry the moon didn’t appear for you… it’s all luck when it comes to weather. Happy you enjoyed this series- thanks very much.
One (beautifully lit) grape leaf..my favorite.
Thanks, Sharon. I was fascinated by the small scenes like this in the vineyards.
Pure magic. We missed the Supermoon due to cloud cover 😡
Hi Marcus, Sorry! We lucked out in SF. Happy you enjoyed these- thanks so much.
Saw your post featured on “Discover” ! Congratulations, Jane ! So much deserved!
Thanks, Marcus. It sure was a nice surprise! Very happy.
These are all amazing, Jane! You are so masterful with the light, bringing out the very best in what your eye sees and what your camera captures.
Hi Pete, That means a lot. Thanks very much. With a little luck, it comes together sometimes…
A lovely selection of images, Jane….the Supermoon and the bridge is just stunning!
Thanks very much, Sue. It was a fruitful night…happy you enjoyed!
😊
Well done on the supermoon, Jane. So sharp, briliantly shot. Luck was on your side too – a clear sky over the bridge. It sort of looks like a big round cheese in the sky, or a round vanilla frosted cake 😀 Love the collection of quotes too. Agree with the last one. Photography certainly is about moments, and so many of these moments are once in a lifetime. With each shot that we take, we are capturing a passing moment, a part of history 🙂
So true, Mabel. Your description is making me hungry! 🙂 Glad that this post resonated with you. Thanks so much.
Strong words, great images! I love the one of moon and the bridge, as if the moon is playing a harp… While the one of the leaf means (to me) even if you are lonely you can hold to someone, something…
Ooh, Louise, I love your descriptions. Beautiful. Very happy this post spoke to you, thanks so much.
The moon shots are stellar.
Thanks, Tim. We were lucky with the angles. Glad you like them.
You’re welcome and I did.. I hope you have a great thanksgiving.
You, too, Tim!
…That’s a’more ..
Uh oh can’t get that song outta my head now….
Wasnt shooting the moon a blast?! Ran into a crowd of lunatics toting tripods & wine accompaniments on the beach that night.
My moons were duds. Thanks for capturing & sharing your lovely ones Jane🌕 ds
I bet Kiawah was great for the lunar shoot! Thanks so much, Diane. We were lucky in SF, too, minus the wine accompaniments. 🙂
These are absolutely beautiful!
Thank you, Gina. Such fun to shoot.
Lots of magic here – great series, Jane!
Thanks so much, Eliza! Loving the light.
That first photo is absolutely stunning! They are all lovely~
Thank you, Cindy. What a night and fun to share with many SF lunar fanatics!
…like a pizza pie. You have the magic touch, gorgeous captures Jane. 🙂
🙂 Thanks so much MM. Much appreciated.
All your photos are great, Jane 🙂
So nice of you to say, Javier. Thanks very much. 🙂
Autumn Vineyard is just incredible, and of course anything with that bridge. Supermoon was fabulous.
So glad you enjoyed, Anon, thanks very much. The moon was amazing.
fascinating…elegant – paradise…
Thanks very much, Mihran. Such fun to photograph. Glad you enjoyed this series.
magical..
Hi Mukesh, I’m so glad you enjoyed this series. Thanks very much.
Beautiful Jane – the bridge made a wonderful frame for your moon shot! Love the little leaf 🙂
Thanks you, T. The moon evening was a thrill and the TPE helped choose the spot…and it worked. 🙂 Glad you like the close-up, too. Thanks so much.
just incredible shots….is that moon real????😜 Gary is convinced that the surfer is Bob😘
Hi April, It is amazingly real and frankly, I was so sure I hadn’t gotten any keepers…was shooting away madly, hoping…hard to get the exposure. That surfer is Bob! How did you guess? 🙂 Thanks so much, GF!
Hi Jane, great pictures my favorite is the 3 and fifths
Hi Robert, Very happy you like those images, thank you. You are also drawn to the quiet moments.. Thanks so much.
Love those moon through the bridge photos, great sense of scale! Greetings, Ron
Hi Ron, It was quite a spectacular moment seeing it rise up framed in the bridge. The app TPE helped with that! So glad you like it- thank you.
Good inspirational quotes and all great images but I love the Super Moon and the Bay Bridge. Well done.
Hi Carl, Thank you! It was an exciting evening on the pier watching the moon rise. Your thoughts are much appreciated.
