Point of view

Still playing around with the moon shots.
This is what the camera captured:
 

The lines on the surface are from tree brunches in my side yard and neighbors' yards. With the naked eye I could see trees and see where the branches were coming from. But the built-in flash was not strong enough to get the trees with the exposure it was set to, so all we get are the lines on the surface. Kinda cool, I think.

If I crop it, though...

 

A bit creepy, no?

It looks like some kind of abstract rose window to me.

I would say that it almost looks like the moon is scarred and bleeding.

Wow, what a difference perspective makes! Could you give more details about the lenses you are using?

I like it and I don't think it is creepy at all.
