Puttenham Walk

The last couple of nights I’ve seen a gorgeous moon and overheard that there is a ‘SuperMoon’ at the moment. This is where the moon is closer to the Earth and the net effect is that it appears 14% larger.  I love the moonlight (which is just ~sunlight) when it breaks through the clouds so I decided on some moon photography.

We headed up to Puttenham Common to get away from the noise of the urban lighting

but we were doubtful of seeing anything because of the cloud cover. We couldn’t see a single star but nevertheless hauled the photography kit around on a nice walk. We settled down for a bit, cooked some homemade pumpkin soup and enjoyed the views; listening to songs of the recently deceased Leonard Cohen.
