The Waxing Moon

The moon was little more than a sliver tonight. Beautiful, silver and stepping quickly to the west, ever chasing the sun. I had originally gone out to shoot pictures of Jupiter, but it was hiding behind a tree. The moon was off to the southwest and no trees obstructed the view. For the technical diehards, shot the moon from a tripod with Nikon D50 105mm f/5.6 1/250. I did crop and double the size of the moon in post production. I hope that doesn't throw any tides off tonight.
