:D My first photo of a waning gibbous ever! I know that my first close up moon photo I ever posted on DA looks like it's a waning gibbous, but it was a waxing gibbous, the camera was tilted.

La Luna in her waning gibbous phase! One of my favourite phases! I am so glad you captured La Luna in her splendor, and this one is my instant :+fav:! You did a great job on this one, and I could not have been more pleased!

Thanks :D It's probably going to be the only photo of this phase, for this cycle, since now she's rising at 12 midnight, and doesn't clear the trees until around 3 in the morning :(

I am just so glad that you were able to capture La Luna during the late evening hours (before midnight). It is always nice to see her when she has already gone past her full-moon phase

Oh, yes, I can completely understand how difficult it must be for you to photograph La Luna with all the trees blocking your view of her. I am in the same boat as you are! I would have to wait a couple of hours after she rises before I am able to really see her just above the tree tops or even between the branches!

I didn't get the shot before midnight, I got it around 2am (the time on my camera is wrong). And I'm just not that eager to get up at 4am, to snap a few photos (not yet at least).
