I’ve always wanted to have a picture of the moon with context to the place I photographed it in. A few hours ago I got to check that off my list.

I was doing long exposures on a beach somewhere in Catanduanes during the afternoon golden hour when I looked eastward and found the moon exactly framed by a small tree clinging to a rock precipice. It was an early riser and there was still enough light to include the tree as a frame and take a photo without doing two exposures.
