Full Moon and stars

The clouds left last night. I was out last night and the mountain range with its fresh snow shone brightly in the moon light. With no clouds the air cooled quickly and the frost on the grass sparkled in the moonlight.

Tonight as I was splitting more logs for firewood I stopped and took a few photos of the moon rise. While I like that my camera is very light sensitive to allow photos in low light situations, I need to figure out how to adjust it as you can see the bright moon is a blur.

I also took a photo of Venus and Jupiter. I wasn't able to remain completely still as the stars look like like two little rectangles - but you get the idea.
