I wanted to capture a photo using the moon as a form of backlighting. I didnt realize how dark the picture would turn out. The moon just isnt bright enough to provide the kind of backlighting required for a photo at night. I think it was just too far away. Anyways, I had to improvise. Instead I used the light from a lampost near our driveway. Being much brighter than the moons light, its gave me a better looking picture and still retained the night setting Id wanted. Of course the subject of this photo is a cross. I just taped two sticks together.  I took the photo from slightly off to the side and also down, achieving a worms eye view. This is the only compsition used in this photo.
