Volker's Pictures

December 17, 2013 was a full moon night. I was out taking pictures of some of the holiday decoration in our neighborhood. But soon, the moon became more interesting than all the artificial lights. I've tried it before, and I tried it again: another vain attempt to catch the spirit of the full moon in a picture. Again a bunch of pictures I will save to my computer and never watch again. So I thought. But then, a couple of week later, my brother send me a number of full moon pictures. Hard to believe, but in the same night, Steffen had the same idea and took almost the same pictures!
